The Sun Never Says - (SATB Choir)

Duration: 2' 30"

©2024 St. Romanos Press

Program Notes:

The Sun Never Says paints a picture of unconditional love. The sun is providing for and lighting the world, but never asking for anything in return. This creates a pure sweetness, but to humans, it forms tension. The sense of calm given through the piece is telling of the tender and powerful love which never truly rests.

The Sun Never Says

Daniel Ladinsky

Text used with permission

Even

After

All this time

The sun never says to the earth,

“You owe

Me.” 

Look

What happens

With a love like that,

It lights the

Whole

Sky.
