about

lyrics

Grey dawn on the sand hills, the night wind has drifted
All night from the rollers a scent of the sea
With the dawn the grey fog his battalion has lifted
At the call of the morning they scatter and flee.

Like mariners calling the roll of their number
The seafowl put out to the infinite deep
And far overhead, sinking softly to slumber
Worn out by their watching, the stars fall asleep.

To eastward where resteth the dome of the skies on
The sea line stirs softly the curtain of night
And far from behind the enshrouded horizon
Comes the voice of a god saying, "Let there be light."

And lo, there is light! Evanescent and tender,
It glows ruby-red where 'twas now ashen grey;
And purple and scarlet and gold in its splendour -
Behold, 'tis that marvel, the birth of a day!
