A Harp Strung With Wind
[Chorus:]
A harp strung with wind
A harp strung with light
A season of frost
A season of light
[Verse:]
The midwinter sun
Illumines the land
The winter is done
Awaiting — some hand
[Chorus:]
A harp strung with wind
A harp strung with light
A season of frost
A season of light
[Verse:]
This bare frozen earth
Where old giants trod
Shakes now at the steps
Of who knows - who knows what god?
[Chorus:]
A harp strung with wind
A harp strung with light
A season of frost
A season of light
[Verse:]
The unquiet bones
Lie witness to all
Till claimed by the foam
They are dragged from the shore
[Verse:]
But the harpist shall come
And by his own touch and choice
As he plays on the wind
Shall the harp find a voice?
