The Herald’s tune, to hail the dawn A triumph yet to ascertain A song he plays of light, yet drawn Of solidarity and pain
Pipes of reeds, o’er marshlands plays The plains, they thud with silent drum A Fiddle’s twang do catch the rays Through sunlights’ beams, a silent strum
Sullen notes on gusting lips Cascading swells, the bird song’s rush To greet the day before it slips Into song’s by nightingale or thrush
Ensnared in songs, enraptured hence The beasts that roam do share their calls And beseech the Herald to commence The coming day through woodland halls
Pines and oak do creak and bend The Herald’s tune they seek as well To wash through branch, their bark to mend In the languish of the music’s spell
A song to bring the morning forth To chase the fears of Night in wonder But The Herald’s melody finds worth In those who’s heart are split asunder
It binds the wounds of waifs and strays And to the lost, a guiding token So heed The Herald’s tune in ways That heals your heart when it is broken
By the robin’s breast, and vibrant dove Remember, friend, that you are loved
