A song for book 1 of the Doors of Destiny series, Cobalt - The Blue Door
An old folk song from another dimension, sung by a ranger and his pet myna, Jester.
In the day when the world was new And the robins all sang with the sweet morning dew
The Whispering Breeze came a-calling, a-calling
The Whispering Breeze came a-calling to play
In the sun-colored locks of the man that she loved,
Oh, the wind came to play in the sun-colored locks
Of the wonderful man that she loved.
In the heat of the midday sun When the air shimmered fair till the sweat chose to run
The Whispering Breeze came a-kissing, a-kissing
The Whispering Breeze came a-kissing the brow
The earth-colored brow of the man that she loved
Oh, the wind came to kiss the earth-colored brow
Of the wonderful man that she loved.
In the cool at the end of day When the sun sank low, and the crickets did play
The Whispering Breeze came a-courting, a-courting
The Whispering Breeze came a-courting the heart,
The flame-colored heart of the man that she loved,
Oh, the wind came to court the flame-colored heart
Of the wonderful man that she loved.
But the evening sun displayed The man that she loved in the arms of a maid
And the Whispering Wind came a-moaning, a-moaning
The Whispering Wind came a-moaning the loss,
The Wind moaned the loss of the man that she loved,
Oh, the wind moaned the loss
of the flame-colored heart
Of the wonderful man that she loved.
In the night you can hear her still, Moaning outside every windowsill
For the Whispering Winds still a-moaning, a-moaning
She calls in the night for the love that she lost
The Wind moaned the loss of the man that she loved,
Oh, the wind moaned the loss of the flame-colored heart
Of the wonderful man that she loved.
