In this day of sunrise and sunset, growth and d**h Each and all shall reap the mid-day sun And all that rose from the breast of earth Shall in darkness become whole again The original word in you and I Our unity, our birthplace, is above and beneath us Our roots, our womb, and our topmost leaf, a hope In the shape of a circle, in the likeness of the sun
This is the language of life This is the word in the ground beneath our feet When it is time to sleep And when it is time for rebirth This is the language of everything we touch Spoken in the fire that lights our day When it is time for warmth and awakening And when it is time to wither in their absence.
