Description
"the milky way, seen for real from a beach on the big island." |
Lyrics[]
crown of light
haze once concealed is now revealed,
on a night of kona sands
strange new view
of heavens with diamond dust
scattered through a dark expanse
deep in the sky, wheeling 'round,
there burns a bright starry crown
kaulia: a vertex on the cross of dawn,
must withdraw behind the waves
hokupa'a: axis mark of the northern arc,
stayed and saw the light of day
deep in the dark quiet hours
there shines a bright crown of stars,
deep in the sky, wheeling 'round,
there burns a bright starry...
boundless, bewildering,
ice-speckled stellular dome,
dizzying wonder-ous
staggering numberless host
rotating endlessly,
lazily spun by the vault,
timelessly circle-ling
longer than earth can recall
silently, and silver-linned,
with light undimmed,
call to me, celestial choir,
luminous vast panoply, stark majesty,
the numinous suffused with fire
deep in the dark quiet hours
there shines a bright crown of stars,
deep in the sky, wheeling 'round,
there burns a bright starry crown
