fire + ice (ian read) - jubal and tubal cain lyrics
[verse 1]
jubal sang of the wrath of god
and the curse of thistle and th-rn
but tubal got him a pointed rod
and scrabbled the earth for corn
old-old as that early mould
young as the sprouting grain
yearly green is the strife between
jubal and tubal cain
[verse 2]
jubal sang of the new-found sea
and the love that its waves divide
but tubal hollowed a fallen tree
and p-ssed to the further side
black-black as the hurricane-wrack
salt as the under-main
bitter and cold is the hate they hold
jubal and tubal cain!
[verse 3]
jubal sang of the golden years
when wars and wounds shall cease
but tubal fashioned the hand-flung spears
and showed his neighbours peace
new-new as nine-point-two
older than lamech’s slain
roaring and loud is the feud avowed
twix’ jubal and tubal cain!
[verse 4]
jubal sang of the cliffs that bar
and the peaks that none may crown
but tubal clambered by jut and scar
and there he builded a town
high-high as the snowsheds lie
low as the culverts drain
wherever they be they can never agree
jubal and tubal cain!
