AND GRIEVE NO MORE

 

AND GRIEVE NO MORE

In the wastelands of my heart

A small bird sings

Unconscious that on the horizon

The sun is falling down

Unknowing, rhapsodic is his theme

And soon the light will fade.

Why cannot I

In the midst of gloom

Take up again the song I used to sing

With clarity of falling rain

With the green woods surrounding me again

Without revealing any pain

Sing the sun back into the skies

And grieve no more.
