(Denver/Samples)
|
Two days before the moon was round, you felt the urge of sun's light beams.
|
The muffled world of dolphin sound slipped down and back into your dreams.
|
For nine full months that passed before, you learned of all life's ancient rhymes.
|
Then mother sensed a farther shore and brought you forth into these times,
|
so taste the air of your new world and gently guide us to your mind.
|
It knows the winds and sails unfurled and holds to heart the dolphin kind.
|
|
Welcome precious earth made child, we met you first in your father's songs
|
and mother's smile and waters wild, it's in this place you now belong.
|
I know you know of all these things and feel the faith of a dolphin's sigh
|
for you were born on silver wings to taste the high blown crystal sky.
|
So sing one day to all of us, the songs you learned in dolphin lair,
|
giving hope to life as all we must and teach us how their grace to share.
