Rh A wooden cross the clay that once was I

Has ta'en its ancient earthy form anew.

But listen to the wind that hurries by,

To all the Song of Life for tones you knew.

For in the voice of birds, the scent of flowers,

The evening silence and the falling dew,

Through every throbbing pulse of nature's powers

I'll speak to you.
