milton babbitt - echo song كلمات أغنية

[philomel]
o thrush in the woods i fly among
do you, too, talk with the forest’s tongue?

[tape]
stung, stung, stung;
with the sting of becoming
i sing

[philomel]
0 hawk in the high and widening sky
what need i finally do to fly
and see with your unclouded eye?

[tape]
die, die, die;
let the day of despairing
be done

[philomel]
o owl, the wild mirror of the night
what is the force of the forests light?

[tape]
slight, slight, slight;
with the slipping-away of
the sun

[philomel]
o sable raven, help me back!
what color does my torn robe lack?

[tape]
black, black, black;
as your blameless and long
dried blood

[philomel]
o bright gull, aid me in my dream!
above the foaming breaker’s cream!

[tape]
scream, scream, scream
for the scr-ps of your being;
be shrill

[philomel]
the world’s despair should not be heard!
too much terror has occurred:
the gods who made this hubbub erred!

[tape]
bird, bird, bird!
you are bare of desire:
be born!

[philomel]
oh green leaves! through your rustling lace
ahead, i hear my own myth race

[tape]
thrace, thrace, thrace!
pain is unchained
there is change!
there is change!
in the woods of thrace!
