judith weir - ox mountain was covered by trees lyrics
ox mountain was covered by trees, but it stands by a populous city. the people climbed up with their axes and choppers; they cut the wood down, and the mountain lost its vegetation
yet evenso, there came the night breeze. rain and dew moistened it: green shoots began to grow. cattle and sheep grazed there. after some time, the mountain was gaunt and bare. people who see it barren today imagine it always treeless
who knows that the woods werе tampered with, hewn with axеs, beaten with clubs? the trees are lopped, day after day; how will the
mountain flourish?
confucius said these words: „hold on and it will remain. let go and it disappears. one never knows the time it comes. one never sees where it has gone.“ in making his remarks, perhaps he referred
to the heart
