From trails of wolves
|
From paths of bruin
|
From fen-depths and mountain winds
|
Raised into the light I was
|
Separated apart I was
|
|
I am of air
|
I am water
|
I am of fire
|
And earth I am
|
|
The lore of air
|
The waters wisdom
|
Fire aware
|
The memory of earth
|
|
Upon my birth I understood
|
The spirits of matter
|
And their alliance
|
In spatterns of liquid iron
|
Separated apart I was
|
|
Separated I was
|
Apart I was
|
|
In a flash of light
|
A crash of storm
|
I was called there
|
Among all the greatest
|
|
Where light was curved
|
|
Into an arc
|
I was made real
|
Constructed of gods
|
|
To north, south, east and west
|
The spirit of air to quarters four
|
She was my mother
|
Heavy with wind
|
Swelled from the sea
|
|
Separated I was
|
Apart I was
|
|
From chaos of matter restored I was
|
Brought to the essence of creation
|
To red, black and white
|
To milk iron and steel
|
|
The lights of chaos
|
They have transformed
|
Into a precise spark
|
The spark of my mind
|
The sounds disruptive
|
Into distant singing
|
I can hear them through waters
|
