|
The torment has ended |
|
The beast has done his work |
|
Great fires rage outside of this wooded sanctuary |
|
But soon they will be quenched by a purifying rain |
|
The embers of the ceremonial fire burn to ash |
|
A new warmth stirs within the center of the earth |
|
I am alone here no more |
|
The wood is filled with the sounds of wildness |
|
The songs of birds fill the forest on this new morning |
|
This will be my new home |
|
Deep within the most sacred grove |
|
The sun god is born anew |
|
I will lay down my bones among the rocks and roots of the deepest hollow next to the streambed |
|
The quiet hum of the earth's dreaming is my new song |
|
When I awake, the world will be born anew |
