[EXERPTS FROM THE LYRICS]
1. HUMAN SEA – K.M. Stoeten-Verbeek
Black and blue and white
dark and bright
growling, singing
long fingers stretching....................
2. WIND ON THE HILL – A.A. Milne
No one can tell me,
Nobody knows,
Where the wind comes from,
Where the wind goes....................
3. SPELLBOUND – Emily Bronte
The night is darkening round me,
The wild winds coldly blow;
But a tyrant spell has bound me
And I cannot, cannot go...................
4. NOTHING GOLD CAN STAY – Robert Frost
Nature’s first green is gold,
Her hardest hue to hold.
Her early leaf’s a flower;
But only so an hour........................
5. THE ENGLISH LANE – Jack Hickman
I know a quiet English lane
A-greening in the Spring,
Where shining celandines proclaim
The earth’s awakening,
And there among the hazel wands,
I hear the chiffchaff sing..................................
