The Lion's Song

This is an empty world.

This is Nothing.

This is blackness and earth

Simply waiting


Now in the silence is heard

A voice in the void starts to sing.

The song is without any words,

And no words can describe what it sings.


More voices join in with the first,

Clear silver voices and high,

And the blackness is filled with the burst

Of stars lighting up the whole sky.


The song rises up to a swell,

And the sun rises up with the song,

And the source of the song, and the spell

Is the great Lion golden and strong.
