Lyrics
Does she see herself in the water?
She’s got the eyes of her mother.
In the movements of her face,
Her ancestors come together.
And man says, “Let us make God in her image.
Make her ruler over the sea.
Maybe she will heal the damage,
For we are thirsty.”
Can he hear his breath in the moonlit night?
He knows the ways of a hunter.
Though we cannot keep the time,
At the end of every life begins another.
And we’ll say, “Let us make God in his image.
Make him keeper of the land.
Maybe he’ll restore the balance,
For we are hungry.”
