Slow pacing, soon homing,
A patriarch that strolls

A patriarch that strolls
Through the tents of his children,

Ascents of the blue,
Washes the roofs
And the hillsides with clarity.
Behold him setting in his western skies,
The shadows lengthening as the vapours rise.
Behold him setting in his western skies,
The shadows lengthening as the vapours rise.
