I have heard
The ocean’s sigh
And witnessed
Ripples on its shores
The shushing waves
Left in repose
The ocean’s sigh
And witnessed
Ripples on its shores
The shushing waves
Left in repose
I have heard
The mountain’s cry
And witnessed
Cliffsides and steep slopes
The thrusting earth
Left in repose
But in a desert
Far from home
I heard the singing
Of the sands
Saw mountains rise
Saw rippling land
All the while
The desert sang
The earth did dance
The heavens rang
For shifting sands
Know no repose
