Muse teach me the song

Revered and primordial

The song for everyone

Believed by all

Muse teach me the song

The true brother of each thing

In cendiary of the night

And evening's secret

Muse teach me the song

That takes me home

Without delay or haste

Changed to plant or stone

Or changed into the wall

Of the first house

Or become the murmur

Of the sea all around

I remember the floor

Of the well-scrubbed planks

Its soapy smell

Keeps coming back

Muse teach me the song

Of the sea's breath

Heaving with brilliance

Muse teach me the song

Of the white room

And the square window

So I can say

How evening there

Touched door and table

Cup and mirror

How it embraced

Because time pierces

Time divides

And time thwarts

Tears me alive

From the walls and floor

Of the first house

Muse teach me the song

Revered and primordial

To fix the brilliance

Of the polished morning

That rested its fingers

Gently on the dunes

And whitewashed the walls

Of the house simple rooms

Muse teach me the song

That chokes my throat
