Lyrics:

Not with the lips of skin, nor yet with the lips of dark snow
But let the white dove sing
Of the body of life of the lover whose love is complete
Hold hands out to greet, let not the swan be brought low

For all that is moving is moved by her hands
She is mirrored for ever in the life of the lands
In the building of thoughts in the shifting of sands

Life life remembering

Well, here you are now, oh now you are here
Well, how has it been so far?
The hair and the fur
Lemons, frankincense, and myrrh

For all that is moving is moved by her hands
She is mirrored for ever in the life of the lands
In the building of thoughts in the shifting of sands

Let the cracked crystal raindrop be merged in the sea
Silent, shining, thoughtless, free
But close your eyes to find the golden flower
And open them to see the sunshine shower
Where the flowers are free and the fishes ask
'Ah, what can water be?'

She beareth thought, she beareth visions
Speaking truth in contradictions
Dreams of pain, dreams of laughter
And every action follows after

O second self, o gate of the soft mystery
I'll love you if you'll love me
O guide me with the gold of Gabriel's wing
Grant me the tongue that all the earth does sing

Vibrating light, forever one the sun
The book of life is open to us
There'll be no secrets left between us
