歌詞

Open window, velvet dark

A thousand tiny strings embark

The field behind the house is loud

With every cricket singing proud

They saw the whole sky, so they play

A concert at the end of day

Night to night the dark recites

A quiet knowledge in the heights

Cricket song and cooling air

Music rising everywhere

No conductor, no rehearse

Just the humming universe

I leave the lamp off, lean and hear

The summer orchestra is near

They don't know Monday, don't know rent

They only sing, and are content

Cricket song and cooling air

Music rising everywhere

No conductor, no rehearse

Just the humming universe

If little wings can praise the dark

Surely I can hum my part

Cricket song and cooling air

Music rising everywhere

No conductor, no rehearse

Just the humming universe

Open window, velvet dark

A thousand tiny strings embark
