Fireflies 25 - 32 lyrics

25

God seeks comrades and claims love,

the Devil seeks slaves and claims obedience.

26

The child ever dwells in the mystery of ageless time,

unobscured by the dust of history.

27

A light laughter in the steps of creation

carries it swiftly across time.

28

The soil in return for her service

keeps the tree tied to her,

the sky asks nothing and leaves it free.

29

Jewel-like immortal

does not boast of its length of years

but of the scintillating point of its moment.

30

One who was distant came near to me in the morning,

and still nearer when taken away by night.

31

White and pink oleanders meet

and make merry in different dialects.

32

When peace is active sweeping its dirt,

it is storm.
