Text:
The grey sea creeps half-visible, half-hushed,
And grasps with its innumerable hands
These silent walls. I see beyond a rough
Glimmering infinity, I feel the wash
And hear the sibilation of the waves
That whisper to each other as they push
To shoreward side by side,-long lines and dim
Of movement flecked with quivering spots of foam,
The quiet welter of a shifting world.
-Sri Aurobindo

That is gorgeous. The vocalist is marvelous. It's a knockout piece Calvin. All I can say is "WOW"! Beautiful piano work, too!
