The Quietude (Encuentro de Animales)

Lyrics

[Foreign Content]
 Night calls through the air
 Reaching for its solitude
 Dusk lures like a lyre
 Beckoning the quietude
 In a state of constant commotion
 Full of rage and heartless devotion
 There's a need that burns within
 To fly away, just fly away
 Soft winds kiss the land
 Silent and in gratitude
 Children, hand in hand
 Comprehend the quietude
 Through a maze of fear and compulsion
 There's a race for power and fortune
 Still a need within cries out
 To fly away, just fly away
 People rush, people flee
 They move so fast that they cannot see
 Work all day, up all night
 They push and hide all the joy inside
 Like a wave that breathes in the ocean
 And the mountain's peak with emotion
 There's a need that calls within
 To find a way, just find a way
 Time to leave and fly away
 To take a leave and just cast away
 To leave the worries and dismay
 It's time to go, it's time to play
 It's time to leave and fly away
 (It's time now to fly away)
 To take a leave and just cast away
 To leave the worries and dismay
 (Take leave and cast away)
 It's time to go, it's time to play
 It's time to leave and fly away
 (To fly)
 To take a leave and just cast away
 To leave the worries and dismay
 It's time to go, it's time to play
 It's time to leave and fly away
 (The moon, it guides my way)
 To take a leave and just cast away
 To leave the worries and dismay
 (Winds blow to show the way)
 It's time to go, it's time to play
 It's time to leave and fly away
 (To fly)
 To take a leave and just cast away
 Dawn breaks, day descends
 With a calming attitude
 Shadows fall and bend
 Welcome in the quietude
