Only the stars remember my name
And the sleeping hearts of men
Have buried the spark beneath the sands
The ember, stripped of flame.

Hatred brews in the hearts of men
And the cold unfeeling stars
Are concealed again by the furious sands
Hope's embers dim again.

Cold embraces the fires of stars
And the failing hearts of men
Feel the spark of war engulfing them all
The moth consumed by flame.

Whispers of men wake the sound of my name
And resound between the stars
The sands of time flow gently once more
And the soul resolves again.

Life expands in the hearts of stars
As time scatters the souls of men
The earthbound sparks of cities have spread
Lighting lands with candleflame.

Shout my name to the hearts of men
And sow heaven's reach with stars
The spark of my will in a nurturing hand
Glowing embers that blossom again.

Always the stars remember my name
And the living hearts of men
Have unearthed the spark beneath the sands
The ember, coaxed to flame.
