I am as old as mankind
I am as wizened as Yew
I am the pulp and the rind
I am the seedling that grew
I am the sweeping Starling
I am the albatross
I am the bard who sings
I am the Lord on the cross

I am the balloon on the wind
I am the sun's ruby fire
I am the treasure animals find
I am the ancient lyre
I am the undulating ocean
I am the magick of sound
I am the forest's motion
I am the roots in the gound
