Evensong
[00:23.30] The day is over and still so heavy on the mind
[00:32.11] In flew glowing, smiling mother, butterfly in yellow
[00:42.88] To join the frowning cactus crowd
[00:47.92] Finding flowers even there to flutter round
[00:57.39] I thought, isn't mother grand? The way she flies and flies
[01:03.92] Into the sting of the cold and the prick of the barbed wire
[01:13.09] Isn't mother grand to gladly fly and swiftly fly
[01:20.10] Into the sting of the cold and the prick of the barbed wire
[01:42.71] The day is over and still goes passing through the mind:
[01:51.55] In came glowing, smiling mother, sure and kind
[01:59.25] To rouse us, to give ourselves out and to cry
[02:06.63] Birth to warm intentions, worthless otherwise
[02:16.62] Oh, the lives that brush against us, pass us by and by
[02:24.34] The friends who may or may not come if we would first invite
[02:32.33] Oh, to open doors, to always gladly fly and fly
[02:47.67][02:39.08] Into the sting of the cold and the prick of the barded wire
