"The Snow Leopard" lyrics

The way is to climb
The way is to lie still
And let the moon do its work on your body

And then to rise
Through forests and oceans of lives
And through the way of the black rocks
Splitting, wide
And flow
Ten thousand miles"

Well, I've had enough
Wasting my body, my life
I'll come away, come away from the shallows

But can this sullen child
As bound as the ox that I ride
Climb to the heart of the white wind
Singing, high
And blow
Through my frozen eyes?
