Hey, listening once if we sing
Will that make you do your thing?
Will the chanting reach you
High and lofty places?
Brother, what’s is this
Strange gift you bring?
With this poor man like a diamond ring
Will that bright light reveal
The prince of faces

Now beware of the eastwind
The god of man and beast wind
A famine and/or feast wind
His last but not the least wind

His stole a thread of golden fleece wind
Yes, he’ll find a great release wind
It is blowing all across this land
Blowing all across this land
And where you gonna stand?
Tell me brother,
Where you gonna stand?

( Terry Callier, alley-wind song)
