[00:06.05]The back of the winter is broken
[00:11.52]And light lingers long by the door
[00:17.31]And the seeds of the summer have spoken
[00:22.89]In gowans that bloom on the shore
[00:27.11]
[00:28.98]By night and day we'll sport and we'll play
[00:34.27]And delight as the dawn dances over the bay
[00:40.48]Sleep blows the breath of the morning away
[00:45.95]And we follow the heron home
[00:50.36]
[00:54.52]In darkness we cradled our sorrow
[01:00.10]And stoked all our fires with fear
[01:05.59]Now these bones that lie empty and hollow
[01:11.48]Are ready for gladness to cheer
[01:15.89]
[01:17.23]By night and day we'll sport and we'll play
[01:22.32]And delight as the dawn dances over the bay
[01:28.91]Sleep blows the breath of the morning away
[01:33.94]And we follow the heron home
[01:38.80]
[01:42.85]So long may you sing of the salmon
[01:48.77]And the snow scented sounds of your home
[01:54.42]While the north wind delivers its sermon
[02:00.19]Of ice and salt water and stone
[02:04.99]
[02:05.76]By night and day we'll sport and we'll play
[02:10.92]And delight as the dawn dances over the bay
[02:17.45]Sleep blows the breath of the morning away
[02:22.53]And we follow the heron home
[02:27.13]
[02:28.52]By night and day we'll sport and we'll play
[02:33.61]And delight as the dawn dances over the bay
[02:40.08]Sleep blows the breath of the morning away
[02:45.35]And we follow the heron home
[02:50.70]
[02:58.60]End
