So many years you have lain
Under the plaster of the darkened wall
Now you are free in pure space again
Child of the deepest blue thought
Once again your eyes are blazing
And the wall is dawning like the sky.
But there’s another hidden face
Beneath the plaster of my heart
The joy of my youth
Your sister in her beauty
No, there’s no artist that can save her
With my life she’ll fade for ever.
