[00:00.00] Earth, stream and tree encircled by sea
[00:09.57] Waves sweep the sand from my island
[00:15.66] My sunsets fade
[00:18.83] Field and glade wait only for rain
[00:25.10] Grain after grain love erodes my high weathered walls
[00:33.51] Which fend off the tide cradle the wind to my island
[00:46.65] Gaunt granite climbs where gulls wheel and glide
[00:53.11] Mournfully glide over my island
[00:59.12] My dawn bride's veil, damp and pale
[01:04.80] Dissolves in the sun
[01:08.79] Love's web is spun, cats prowl, mice run
[01:14.40] Wreathe snatch-hand briars where owls know my eyes
[01:21.15] Violet skies, touch my island, touch me
[01:30.69]
[01:32.42] Beneath the wind turned wave
[01:39.71] Infinite peace
[01:44.96] Islands join hands 'Neathe heaven's sea
[01:54.67]
[03:23.79] Beneath the wind turned wave
[03:31.00] Infinite peace
[03:36.88] Islands join hands 'Neathe heaven's sea
[03:46.41]
[04:24.29] Dark harbor quays like fingers of stone
[04:31.08] Hungrily reach from my island
[04:36.87] Clutch sailor's words, pearls and gourds
[04:43.08] Are strewn on my shore
[04:47.21] Equal in love, bound in circles
[04:52.04] Earth, stream and tree return to the sea
[04:58.71] Waves sweep sand from my island from me
[05:10.42]
