|
The path is clear, though no eyes can see |
|
The course laid down long before |
|
And so with gods and men, the sheep remain inside their pen |
|
Though many times they've seen the way to leave |
|
He rides majestic, past homes of men |
|
Who care not or gaze with joy |
|
To see reflected there, the trees, the sky, the lily fair |
|
The scene of death is lying just below |
|
The mountain cuts off the town from view |
|
Like a cancer growth is removed by skill |
|
Let it be revealed |
|
A waterfall, his madrigal |
|
An inland sea, his symphony |
|
Undinal songs urge the sailors on |
|
'Till lured by the siren's cry... |
|
Now as the river dissolves in sea |
|
So Neptune has claimed another soul |
|
And so with gods and men, the sheep remain inside their pen |
|
Until the shepherd leads his flock away |
|
The sands of time were eroded by |
|
The river of constant change |
