lyrics

Peacock Song
Words & music by Neil Pike ©1979
Oh the peacock sings
on clouds the colour of Krishna
To the rustle of velvet wings
Sweet is their flight
From the golden sands of morning
To the mountains of the night.
Light ray, pots of clay
One by one
My dreams all fade away

The peacock is a spirit of rare beauty
Trapped in mortal wings & feathered hue
When the dance of love has burnt to its fulfillment
The peacock sheds a tear of crystal blue

Bird of joy, fly above
Free of all illusion weeps in love
Froze in time, we dance alone
And claim the peacock’s beauty
As our own.
Light ray, pots of clay
One by one
My dreams all fade away

The peacock is a spirit of rare beauty
Trapped in mortal wings & feathered hue
When the dance of love has burnt to its fulfillment
The peacock sheds a tear of crystal blue
