Translated by A. Z. Foreman - A Lonely Few Say lyrics

"Day unto day uttereth speech, and night unto night showeth knowledge" -Psalms [19:2] Day unto day leaves a dimmed sun, and leaves; And night mourns for night all night long And summer after summer is gathered up with downed leaves And the world in its sorrow gives song And tomorrow we shall die with word no more in us And shall stand at the gate at its closing, as on our last of days, And the heart rejoicing - for God has drawn us close- Shall tremble in fear of betrayal and repent of its ways. Day unto day bears a burning sun westward And night after night lifts stars to atone. On the lips of a lonely few, poetry pauses. We part seven ways and return by the One.
