Not with the lips of skin nor yet with the lips of dark snow
But let the white dove sing
        Eb5                                         C5
Of the body of life of the lover whose love is complete
                                                     Bb5  F5
Hold hands out to greet, let not the swan be brought low


    C5
For all that is moving, is moved by her hands
She is mirrored for ever in the life of the lands
In the building of thoughts in the shifting of sands

C5
Life, life remembering

      Eb5               
Well here you are now, O now you are here
                        C5
Well how has it been so far?
The hair and the fur
                      Bb5 F5
Lemons, frankincenses and myrrh

    C5
For all that is moving is moved by her hands
She is mirrored for ever in the life of the lands
In the building of thoughts in the shifting of sands

C5                       Ab5          G5            G5
Let the cracked crystal raindrop be merged in the sea
F5 F5  F5 C5    F5     C5   G5
Silent shining thoughtless free
     C5
But close your eyes to find the golden flower
And open them to see the sunshine shower
Where the flowers are free and the fishes ask ah, what can water be

C5
She beareth thought, she beareth visions
Speaking truth in contradictions
Dreams of pain, dreams of laughter
And every action follows after

   F5                                C5
O second self, O gate of the soft mystery
      F5                     C5      
I'll love you if you'll love me,
    F5                                  C5 
O guide me With the gold of Gabriel's wing
                                            Bb5 F5 
grant me the tongue that all the earth does sing

   C5
Vibrating light forever one the sun
The book of life is open to us
There'll be no secrets left between us
