Lyrics:
By the wandering pines<br /> Where the sun goes hiding<br /> Swims a little green trout<br /> With its shadow wallowing low<br /> Through the wandering stream<br /> With the stones' slick sliding<br /> And my little fin feet seem to know<br /> Where the water must flow.<br /> <br /> wo deng, wo deng, wo deng<br /> shan shui<br /> <br /> At the foot of the falls,<br /> Yellow footbridge leaping<br /> To a narrow footpath<br /> Where my footsteps following go,<br /> Past the little red roofs<br /> With their corners sweeping<br /> Into bristling pines<br /> With their twisted branches of cones.<br /> <br /> The scroll unrolls<br /> Under my feet.<br /> Where will this<br /> Painted path of paper<br /> Finally lead?<br /> Everything pulses;<br /> Everything is poised.<br /> This wildness wrestles<br /> With its back<br /> Against the void.<br /> <br /> The scroll unrolls<br /> Under my feet.<br /> Where will this<br /> Painted path of paper<br /> Finally lead?<br /> <br /> On a bluff clings the brush,<br /> Tiny tiptoes hanging<br /> To the fissured-fist rocks<br /> All upended and overthrown.<br /> And the pillars pile up<br /> To the clouds' soft longing;<br /> Though the ladder grows steep,<br /> My feet keep climbing the stone.<br /> <br /> wo deng, wo deng, wo deng<br /> shan shui<br /> <br /> wo wang le zi ji<br /> gen wo lai han shang leng qi<br /> <br /> The scroll unrolls<br /> Under my feet.<br /> Where will this<br /> Painted path of paper<br /> Finally lead?<br /> Everything pulses;<br /> Everything is poised.<br /> This wildness wrestles<br /> With its back<br /> Against the void.<br /> <br /> The scroll unrolls<br /> Under my feet.<br /> Where will this<br /> Painted path of paper<br /> Finally lead?<br /> <br /> <br /> Lyrics © 2002 Cynthia Conrad
