|
The sun may stopped rising |
|
Light in mornings growing |
|
Horizon sky from sea dividing |
|
Clouds of waves separating |
|
Grey have been our days |
|
For longer than one will remember |
|
Not a breath of wind in weeks |
|
And ages of the last rainfall |
|
Yet the oars strike into the dusk |
|
Steady keep the rowlocks sounding |
|
Let the morning bring land or more sea |
|
Into the dusk will the oars lead us |
|
Grey is night |
|
Grey new dawn |
|
Grey the light |
|
Grey light gone |
|
Feel no wind |
|
See no shores |
|
Never shall we turn back |
|
Never shall we stop |
|
Let the sun stop rising |
|
Moon at nights appearing |
|
Clear sky between clouds flashing |
|
Night from day differing |
|
Grey shall be our days |
|
For as long as journey remains |
|
We welcome cold and rough wind |
|
Into the dusk will the oars lead us |
