The Lost Words: Spell Songs - Spell Songs II: Let the Light In

Silver Birch

Snow is falling, my silver-seeker
Soon, the path will be lost to sight
Soon the day
The day will give way

Ice is forming, my silver-seeker
Soon, the streams will be fastened tight
Soon the shadows
Will claim the light

Break of dawn is far away
But you are safe, my silver-seeker
Safe to sink, down, down, down, down
Deep and deeper

Rest your head now, silver-seeker
Close your eyes and cease your searches
Where the catkin softly brushes
Where the blackbird brightly perches
Here among the birches, bright

The sun is rising, my silver-seeker
Warms the pines and breathes the larches
Lights your yawns, unfurls your stretches
There among the silver birches

Soon the blackbird
Will take her flight
