The boy chorister's brook

Mountain trail, peace in every stride I take The pure air caresses me, for goodness sake, dispelling the ache A nearby murmur, a crystal song The river stops me, where my soul belongs ​ Clear water, faithful mirror, my face I see And in that reflection, time no longer troubles me Clear voice returning, an echo of a child In the choir of old, pure lucidity, reconciled ​ I recall the rehearsals, the laughter, the fear Songs of the Renaissance, held so very dear A sacred, sweet melody, that elevated the soul My voice was a feather, making the heavens its goal Clear water, faithful mirror, my face I see And in that reflection, time no longer troubles me Clear voice returning, an echo of a child In the choir of old, pure lucidity, reconciled ​ The years have gone by, the world has since changed But the essence of that singing, has never been estranged In every flowing drop, a memory takes flight Of the purity that once, gave me so much light ​ Clear water, faithful mirror, my face I see And in that reflection, time no longer troubles me Clear voice returning, an echo of a child In the choir of old, pure lucidity, reconciled ​ The river continues its course, my soul is at rest The voice of my past, an eternal, blessed quest.
