The Song of Distance
Little One, come, I will teach you the song of distance
whereby to flee this peacelessness and din.
Turn from the earth as stranger and begin:
My soul is out on paths that have no ending
and no return. Where the noon kneels to pray
love guides my steps, ascending and descending.
Out through the sleeping solitudes I stray
O far
O far away.
Morning and evening do not mark this day.
O Little One, believe that earth is alien.
Let its concerns all unremembered lie.
Say to the storm or sweetness passing by:
My soul is out on paths that have no ending
and no return. A light blurs out my way.
I am with God and toward my godhood tending.
I near the foothills of eternal day
O far
O far away.
God speaks to me. Earth has no more to say.
