A Song of Flight

Lyrics

While we slumber and sleep The sun leaps up from the deep Daylight born at the leap! Rapid, dominant, free A thirst to bathe in the uttermost sea While we linger at play If the year would stand at May! Winds are up and away Over land, over sea To their goal wherever their goal may be It is time to arise To race for the promised prize The sun flies, the wind flies We are strong, we are free And home lies beyond the stars and sea
