[00:06.05] The back of the winter is broken
[00:11.52] And light lingers long by the door
[00:17.31] And the seeds of the summer have spoken
[00:22.89] In gowans that bloom on the shore
[00:27.11]
[00:28.98] By night and day we'll sport and we'll play
[00:34.27] And delight as the dawn dances over the bay
[00:40.48] Sleep blows the breath of the morning away
[00:45.95] And we follow the heron home
[00:50.36]
[00:54.52] In darkness we cradled our sorrow
[01:00.10] And stoked all our fires with fear
[01:05.59] Now these bones that lie empty and hollow
[01:11.48] Are ready for gladness to cheer
[01:15.89]
[01:17.23] By night and day we'll sport and we'll play
[01:22.32] And delight as the dawn dances over the bay
[01:28.91] Sleep blows the breath of the morning away
[01:33.94] And we follow the heron home
[01:38.80]
[01:42.85] So long may you sing of the salmon
[01:48.77] And the snow scented sounds of your home
[01:54.42] While the north wind delivers its sermon
[02:00.19] Of ice and salt water and stone
[02:04.99]
[02:05.76] By night and day we'll sport and we'll play
[02:10.92] And delight as the dawn dances over the bay
[02:17.45] Sleep blows the breath of the morning away
[02:22.53] And we follow the heron home
[02:27.13]
[02:28.52] By night and day we'll sport and we'll play
[02:33.61] And delight as the dawn dances over the bay
[02:40.08] Sleep blows the breath of the morning away
[02:45.35] And we follow the heron home
[02:50.70]
[02:58.60] End
