The fevered swarm had said
When tried by the hand of man
They tamed primeval wood
The ancient earth dweller
The virgin Earth gave life to me
From the spring of her breast
Til the sun dried her tears
And took this life from me
So when in tears
The love of years
Melts like fallen snow
Within this heart
Life falls apart
For another life to grow
Like silent streams that carve out roads
From new fountains that overflow
Deep in the heart whose hope has died
Quenching the fires its ashes hide
