Bolt Of Blazing Gold Lyrics
A bolt of blazing gold
Lifted from the horizon's edge
Another radiant dawn sends new hope
Avowed my hearty pledge
My yearning to be part
Of nature's truthful solitude
Of wisdom's inner light
That shines in mystic multitude
The guiding source within
So few of us will ever know
And few will ever climb
The great world-tree from which we've grown
But those who seek will find
The rhythm that vibrates high and far
And rearrange the cosmic threads
The pattern of the Weave of Stars
A bolt of blazing gold
A sunfire in zenith hurled
Oh, wingless skydancer
Rejoiced upon the warmth unfurled
What wonders do you hold ensnared
With your mighty heart?
What secrets may be mine
To brother-share as we depart?
Of richest emerald forged
My soul still rises, longingly
From inferno's winding caverns
Through dark air soaring, restlessly
If silence was enough!
No words can grasp my starkest thoughts
No language known to man
Portrays my naked sentiment
A bolt of blazing gold
Swallowed by the waveless sea
The ocean-winds set sail
In breeze towards their destiny
On solarbeams they rode
White sea-gull-wings in harmony
For a moment's startling glimpse
A sienna-burnt tranquility

Oh father of the coloured sky
Unwear thy robe of shadowhood
Let nature's soul once clash again
'Neath blooming glades of goldenwood
We're the ones who seek
To dance to fallen serenades
The magic hymns of gold;
As softly sung, the sunlight fades
...Away
Of richest emerald forged
My soul still rises, longingly
From inferno's winding caverns
Through dark air soaring, restlessly
If silence was enough!
No words can grasp my starkest thoughts
No language known to man
Portrays my naked sentiment
A world of silent stone
As frozen in the nightly sky
In heaven's dark recesses laid
No living soul draws nigh
For seconds all is still
No moonlight heaves throughout the dark
Nor do the heavens breathe
No dryads wreathe within the dark
Within my dark domain...
