Listen to the quiet,
        Listen hard and hear,
The tinkling chimes of serenity
        As it slowly sidles near.

The clamour and the tumult
        Of the world will fade away
When you release your steely grasp
        And do not bid them stay.

The breath of time's slow passage
        Will caress your foaming mind
And still the swirling turbulence
        That shrouds a peace sublime.

Then the ether's calming symphony
        Is heard quit crystal clear,
And the melody of tranquillity
        Replaces the din of fear.
