Daughter of Soil

album: Emilia
Written by: Emilia Dahlin

Daughter of soil
Daughter of sand
A child sprung forth from the flesh of the land.
Wind won't break you,
You just bend
Like the trees that sway high over your head

Son of ocean
Son of sea
You breath underwater so comfortably
Waves won't break you
Just roll you aside
The troth, as your cradle,
Rocks as you ride.

Terra firma is the wish of the sea
To stand for a moment in such pure constancy.
Constant movement is the wish of the land
To be undulating with weather and wind at her hand
But they'll never be, never be
more than Land and Sea.

They shape each other without understanding
The forces that alter their form.
How the wind and warmth that rolls from the hills
Make the waves that shape the shore.

Daughter of gravel
Daughter of clay
Your moves, so deliberate, are glacially paced.
But a fire burns, deep in your core
For the wonder of water
and the one you adore.
