Sing, violin, oh sing!
On and on and on
through thescenes of places moving
Running down a mountain
a stream races so fast
a beautiful young maiden, barefoot,
feet pattering a message
Stop!
Breathe deeply.
The mood is serenity
soothing the soul deeply
warm tears flow
feelings pour with them
blessing the spirit so finely

Bring on the Russian!
Power! Majesty! Exalting!
Passion floods from wall to wall
as the sounds stretch to reach
deep throated, challenging
full and rich and oh so beautiful
the master shares his skill
Ten thousand hours of practice
and practice every day
make the man, the instrument, the music
one
And we are blessed!
A thousand people focused
on the man, the instrument, the music
enthralled
captured
held
Then set free to applaud
and we did
receiving five extra gifts!
