THE LADY OF THE LIGHT
(A SONG)


(copyright 2005, by Simon Teddy, all rights reserved)


THE NIGHT IS STILL, A BIRTHING MOON
CAST ITS BLESSINGS ON THE EARTH
I HEAR HER CALLING IN THE WIND
THE ANGELS DANCING WILD WITH MIRTH

IN HER EYES A MILLION WORLDS
ARE BORN AND SLOWLY DIE
A SILVER CHALICE IN HER ARMS
AND AT HER FEET...THE MASTERS LIE

"MY SON, MY SON, MY PRECIOUS SON
GIVE UP YOUR CUP OF TEARS
AND DRINK THE NECTAR OF OUR LOVE
TO WASH AWAY ALL GHOSTLY FEARS"

I STUMBLE TO THE BARREN GROUND
LOST IN THE CAULDRON OF MY WILL
SHE BOWS TO TOUCH MY TREMBLING HEART
A MILLION STARS GROW BRIGHTER STILL

"THROUGH THE AGES I HAVE COME
TO WEAVE MY GOLDEN THREAD
AND TO BIND EACH BROKEN HEART
TO THE DREAM THAT WE ARE WED".

" I HAVE HEARD EACH DESPERATE CRY
AND I HAVE CAUGHT EACH FALLEN TEAR
I HAVE HELD THE PROMISE CLOSE
THE TIME OF PEACE WHICH DRAWS SO NEAR"

" NOW THE VEIL, IT FADES AND FALLS
THE QUICKENING HAS BEGUN
AND THE EYES OF HUMANKIND
TURN WITHIN TO GREET THE ONE".

"MY SON, MY SON, MY PRECIOUS ONE
SWEET DREAMER OF THE DAWN
WILL YOU HOLD MY LAMP ALOFT
UNTIL ALL HUMAN TEARS ARE GONE"?

"KNOW THAT I AM YOUR VERY BREATH
THE BEATING OF YOUR HEART
AND WE HAVE DANCED AMONG THE SPHERES
IN THE REALMS WHERE SORROWS PART".

THE NIGHT IS STILL, A BIRTHING MOON
CAST ITS BLESSINGS ON THE EARTH
I HEAR HER CALLING IN THE WIND
THE ANGELS DANCING WILD WITH MIRTH
