Voiceless Cry (song lyrics)

Listen to the willow cry,
Listen to it weeping.
Listen to the swallow sigh,
Listen to it singing.

Of all the things we see and hear,
We’re destroying it year by year.
Of all the things we see and hear,
We’re destroying it year by year.

Listen to the West Wind cry,
Listen to it howl.
Listen to the mournful sigh
Of the Snowy Owl.

Of all the things we see and hear,
We’re destroying it year by year.
Of all the things we see and hear,
We’re destroying it year by year.

Listen to the Loon’s call
On the water, still.
Look up to the old Oak Tree
That’s upon the grassy hill.

Of all the things we see and hear,
We’re destroying it year by year.
Of all the things we see and hear,
We’re destroying it year by year.

Nature has its problems,
Can’t you hear it crying?
Nature needs all our help
To stop it from dying.

Of all the things we see and hear,
We’re destroying it year by year.
Of all the things we see and hear,
We’re destroying it year by year.
