Joel Bauman - Composer Interview (Stars)

1 Alone in the night
On a dark hill
With pines around me
Spicy and still,

2 And a heaven full of stars
Over my head,
White and topaz
And misty red;

3 Myriads with beating
Hearts of fire
That aeons
Cannot vex or tire;

4 Up the dome of heaven
Like a great hill,
I watch them marching
Stately and still,

5 And I know that I
Am honored to be
Witness
Of so much majesty.
