Seek the Day
¦¦¦¦¦ ¦¦¦¦¦¦¦ ¦¦¦¦ ¦¦¦ ¦¦¦¦¦¦¦ ¦¦¦¦¦
We seek ¦¦¦ ¦¦¦¦ ¦¦¦¦¦¦ my friends -
That dawn should find us every day
Some ¦¦¦¦¦¦¦¦ ¦¦¦¦¦¦¦ on our way.
The ¦¦¦¦ ¦¦¦¦¦ sleep ¦¦¦¦ ¦¦¦¦ ¦¦¦ ¦¦¦¦¦
¦¦¦¦ ¦¦¦¦¦¦¦ ¦¦¦ ¦¦¦¦ and take ¦¦¦¦¦ rest.
The ¦¦¦¦ ¦¦¦ ¦¦¦¦¦ ¦¦¦ ¦¦¦ ¦¦¦¦¦¦¦¦¦¦¦¦¦¦
¦¦¦ priest and people slumber ¦¦¦¦¦
We ¦¦¦ are early ¦¦¦¦¦¦ ¦¦¦ ¦¦¦¦
¦¦¦ ¦¦¦¦¦¦¦ ¦¦¦¦¦¦¦ far and near.
So peacefully their rest they take,
¦¦¦ ¦¦¦¦¦ ¦¦¦ ¦¦¦ ¦¦¦ first awake!
- Strong heart! ¦¦¦¦ ¦¦¦ ¦¦¦ ¦¦¦¦¦ ¦¦¦¦
¦¦¦ ¦¦¦¦¦¦¦¦ ¦¦¦¦¦¦¦¦¦¦¦ seek the day;
¦¦¦¦ ¦¦¦ ¦¦¦¦ ¦¦¦ ¦¦¦ ¦¦¦¦ ¦¦¦ ¦¦¦¦¦¦
A thousand seekers seek the light.
(Blackout of Stout Marches Lead To Certain Ends by Robert Louis Stevenson)
