Chaos, disorder, and darkness, beyond
lies a great expanse of wilder and here
there is naught a trace of clearness or form
yet Nature bends--o so slowly--its pawns.
Tibeli, Tibeli, shaper of things,
Tibeli, Tibeli, o how she sings!
Into the light comes the pawn known as Life, its
raw formless form forming under her grip, con-
forming to Nature is Life's one true aim, the
White Fox begins to take shape and arrange.
Tibeli, Tibeli, shaper of things,
Tibeli, Tibeli, how her voice rings!
Dark and malicious are Shaper's first songs, her
voice shaping mean things like scales and prongs, yet
order hath emerged with Shaper's great will, the
power of Nature begins to fulfill, sing:
Tibeli, Tibeli, shaper of things,
Tibeli, Tibeli, how her coat gleams!
Softness and Kindness emerge from her soul so at
last have the forces of nature come full and to-
night all shall love and continue to thrive in the
great race of life which has maintained the drive to sur-
vive at the cost of survival and more it is
Nature in her purest most solid form, o sing:
Tibeli, Tibeli, watch her shape things from the
formless to fearful to lovely to--
...
Tibeli, Tibeli, sings on and on...
