Wise Owl Lyrics

Perched on the elder's ancient throne

Feathers kissed by twilight's tone

The old owl spoke of moonlit skies

Of shadowed paths and predator's eyes

See the world with steady eyes

Feel the wind, embrace the skies

Yet know the dark, the hidden snare

For danger whispers everywhere

These silver threads upon my plume

Are scars of life, not signs of gloom

Every feather, a tale untold

Of battles fought, of nights so cold

Yet here I sit, atop this tree

A mark of life's fierce victory

This tree we perch has seen it all

Through countless storms, it did not fall

One day, young one, you'll sit right here

And pass your tales for all to hear

Your eyes are lanterns, sharp and keen

They cut through dark where none have seen

Yet sunlight blinds with golden lies

Where silent hunters softly rise

See the world with steady eyes

Feel the wind, embrace the skies

Yet know the dark, the hidden snare

For danger whispers everywhere

This tree, it stood when time was young

Its roots have drunk the songs we've sung

One day you'll sit where I now stay

To guide the next beneath the gray

In velvet dark, we own the air

With piercing sight, the world lays bare

To dance with life, to play its tune

You must respect both sun and moon

The moon's a friend, the night's our guide

Yet in the sun, we mustn't hide

See the world with steady eyes

Feel the wind, embrace the skies

Yet know the dark, the hidden snare

For danger whispers everywhere

The young owl sat with open heart

Dreaming of the wisdom to impart

The elder smiled, her duty done

Her wisdom passed from old to young

In velvet dark, we own the air

With piercing sight, the world lays bare

To dance with life, to play its tune

You must respect both sun and moon

See the world with steady eyes

Feel the wind, embrace the skies

Yet know the dark, the hidden snare

For danger whispers everywhere

The young owl sat with open heart

Dreaming of the wisdom to impart

The elder smiled, her duty done

Her wisdom passed from old to young
