With the speed of the world

When the dawn arrives, the birds sparkle outside
Like the drops of dew
Which flow from the damned God’s eyes
In yellow summer

When the nighttime reigns, the beasts blow bass notes
In a labour hole
The echo stumps across the pines
Around the hillsides

Through the lights, through the woods on a carpet in hand
At daybreak and awake with the speed of the world
The right time is now

The herbs sleep and come into ear from the ground
Like nobody else
And nobody can appease
Their seas full of honey

The trees grow round and the elephants tight
And the dust grows blue
The glory of the aching boots
A poor affair

Through the glass, through the years on a carpet at feet
In silver dress, in the wind with the speed of the world
The right time is now

Nobody said it would be an easy thing
In the dying days
Yet there is still a moon that tolls
Yet there is still an extra wall
Yet there is firmly outside
Yellow summer
Seas full of honey
Right time is now
Right time is now
