letra de without our knowing why - akira the don

we should remember
even things that follow
after things
which are produced
according
unto nature
contain something pleasing
and attractive
the way that loaves of bread split open
on top in the oven
the ridges just by-products of the baking
and yet somehow pleasing

they rouse our appetites
without our knowing why
they rouse our appetites
without our knowing why
they rouse our appetites
without our knowing why
they rouse our appetites
without our knowing why

how ripe figs begin to burst
and olivеs on the point of falling
the shadow of decay
givеs them peculiar beauty
stalks of wheat
bending under their own weight
the furrowed brow of the lion
flecks of foam on the boar’s mouth
and other things
so many other things
if you look at them in isolation
there’s nothing beautiful about them
and yet by supplementing nature
they enrich it and draw us in
they rouse our appetites
without our knowing why
they rouse our appetites
without our knowing why
they rouse our appetites
without our knowing why
they rouse our appetites
without our knowing why

and anyone
with a feeling for nature
a deeper sensitivity
for that produced within the universe
will find it all gives pleasure
even what seems inadvertent
he’ll find the real live
gaping jaws of wild beats
just as beautiful
as imitations rendered by great artists
he’ll look calmly
on the distinct beauty
of old men and women
and the young alike
he’ll look on with chaste eyes
and he will recognize
so many wonders
unnoticed by others
they rouse our appetites
without our knowing why
they rouse our appetites
without our knowing why
they rouse our appetites
without our knowing why
they rouse our appetites
without our knowing why
without our knowing why

things seen
only at home by those
with nature
and all of her works
things seen
only at home by those
with nature
and all of her works
