ON HAMPERS
ON A BASKET OF BASKETS
You were for me a flower blossom,
you were for me a melancholy light
You were for me the date,
you were for me the different
You were for me in prayer,
you were for me in pain
You were in every word,
you were for me a coldness/
voice/warmth in the heart
With my voice in song
I will leave for the desert
I will cross oceans,
I will walk in foreign lands
I will fill my jar/jars with pure water
To quench your thirst,
a thousand jars
On hampers, on hampers, on
on hampers, on her hamper
You were for me a ripe fruit,
you were for me a refreshing flower
You were for me warmth at night,
you were for me all the time
You were for me a melancholy light,
you were for me smell of a flower blossom
You were for me the different,
you were for me the thing
With my voice...
On hampers, on hampers...
With my voice...
