Enduring Like a Tree Under the Curious Stars

ALTO (SPRING) 
Time wakes up stones in this valley at last 
Flowers open their eyes in a fine speech on the head 
Innocence reborn by divine colours from the sky 
Seasons tell tales for all time, as unlike as water and fire, curious under the stars 

SOPRANO (SUMMER) 
Whenever wet flocks chase over the back of the hills 
Camber crook fields be thick with clover 
All with hair and no hair sing, smooth their hands labour 
Seasons tell tales for all time, as unlike as water and fire, curious under the stars 

TENOR (AUTUMN) 
Lately the woods whisper uneasy in gossip 
Holten tongues dispute the high winds from the North 
Seasons tell tales for all time, as unlike as water and fire, curious under the stars 

BASS (WINTER) 
Go slowly and go far in parsimonious tides 
As biting cold crackle both ear and the bone, be certain 
Seasons tell tales for all time, as unlike as water and fire, curious under the stars

Morning 
Darling 
How are you 
Alright 
Busy 
Oh dear 
What’s up 
How are you, my friend. And you, my friend? 
You know what I just saw – This thing you know what I just saw 
Tapping breaks the stone 
This break down, rip down, tear down, knock down, pull down, turning down 
Against siege of rain against siege of wind 
rain and wind and rain and wind fortress 
This break up, lift up, pull up, build up, look up, light up, put up, set up, 
move up, turn up 
Tapping breaks the stone 
Remember us 
under the stars 
Remember us 
enduring under the curious stars 
Remember us 
for we, too, are winners of wars
