Zephyris' Ode: O Vox Divinus Dithyrambum

[intro] (Ah,) "Cantatum melodia, vox divinus dithyrambum" Tis the bardic blessing granted unto me by ancient muses [verses] Revered minstrel of days of yore Bound o'er hills and vales of lore Sprung from Sappho's lips Beneath stars that glide across the firmament like swiftly shimmering ships. With tender breath from the lips of Baudelaire Gramercy in the lore of a haunting sigh Now, a cacophony of crows in the forest near Whispering echoes in the dusk from its vast undergrowth obscure A symphony of the cosmic dance is writ above Rising tones as stars wheel and twist 'midst galaxies afire Nay! Now they join my melodies as they flow like a heavenly river through the cosmic skies [refrain] Yet, one inexorable thump of the eternal heart beats true Muffling these fanciful notions and keeping all true notes in-tune [verses] My multi-stringed lyre t'wilting the air full and warm, entwining with the musical murmurs of whispering plants aglow like stars born from ancient seeds And in turn I lend my ear to hear the whispered melody from my muse resonating the wisdom and magic we wield twixt skies and stratosphere [refrain] Yet, one inexorable thump of the eternal heart beats true Muffling these fanciful notions and keeping all true notes in-tune [verse] (Revered minstrel of days of yore Bound o'er hills and vales of lore Sprung from Sappho's lips Beneath stars that glide across the firmament like swiftly shimmering ships.) [bridge] Oh song of mine, weave the night with song celestial! "Cantatum melodia, vox divinus dithyrambum"! [End]
