STARS OVER ANTARCTICA (Lullaby for Ukraine)
©Gary Bowman Two weeks adrift in the Antarctic sea Ice floes and frost on a still winter’s night Twinkling stars fill the southern sky Aurora and Milky Way’s shimmering light Seek what is righteous, good, and pure Find the strength to endure Rubble and ruin, in a far-away land Despair and pain, on a long winter’s night Missiles and bombs light the city sky And shatter the peace of a silent night Smoke and ash occlude the stars In a country ravaged by war Together, we journey, a people, as one Seeking to find a guiding light United, we pray a new day will come As ever so slowly, we turn toward the sun Seek what is righteous, good and pure Find the strength to endure Find the will to endure Find the strength to endure Find the will to endure |
