The Wind, The Sea, The Shore lyrics

For eons the wind blew free

To toss and turn the toiled sea

Til meeted with the line shore

But alas to be there is no more

The shore said curse thy waves

Curse your lapping tides saves

No rest for thee, not for me

I'll not flavour your livid tea

Replied the wind, no grudge bear I

The wind drives me, I do not lie

It drives me on, there is no rest

Drives me on to thy sandy crest

Of this the denied this fact

How could he so easily react

It is my way, not my strife

To stop the squall would end my life

Shall I endure each day accursed

How could my nature be perversed

You are the sea so must you go

It is the way of water to flow

The shore is a changling created yea

Or is it your wish to stay that way

Bear no false facts on my behalf

For no more can I now laugh

The sea stagnates when stilled

Then all its life would be killed

A fouler stench to breathe the shore

Death's red tide rolling in store

The sun would burn the sand to dust

So for this turn shore you must

Many days have passed this word

Storms and squalls still are heard

But always the peace must restore

The wind, the sea, the shore...
