There beneath the willow tree
I learned a lot about the way of things
I learned that everything (the wind, the leaves) has breath inside
They were pointing ever east
To see the ever-turning aeon cease
Their will were ever bent on waiting with all their mightI know (I know)
I know this
There is beauty in the way of thingsThere beyond the palisade
I saw the morning lead a cavalcade
They made a marvel of a display
And it made me cry 'o lai'O lai (o lai)
O lai Lord
There is beauty in the way of things
