DESCENT FROM THE IVORY TOWER


Refugee in a tower of agony
hungry for ceaseless beauty
In love with eternity
Refugee in a tower of agony

In an early, rainy morning
When the birds started singing
He woke into a vision crying
In an early, rainy morning

Stepping down the hill slowly
Pondering over his troubles calmly
He was seeking for a canopy
Stepping down the hill slowly

As the uncertain end nears
Rocks, trees, leaves, rivers...
None but One hears his fears
As the uncertain end nears

In need of fundamental change
Past life and fears scream with rage
Ivory tower is no different than a cage
In need of fundamental change

Not knowing the final destination
In the turbulent life-story ocean
Re-discovering a one-to-one relation
Descent from ivory tower becomes Ascension
(Sermed Ogretim)
