Stone and Sky (Æthelburg Hymn)

Built on the bone of the world below

Stone and sediment, ages ago

Woven rock formations, a silent hum

Where the weight of the past has come undone

Rising to meet an echoing blue

A city of sound, seen through and through

Oh, Æthelburg! Where the patterns bloom

In the space between the stone and the sky's high room

A symphony of structure, a chaotic grace

Finding the melody in this vertical space!

Guilds of sound-weavers ply their trade

Ambient noise carefully unmade

Resonant chambers amplify the plea

For meaning found in the frequency

The living structure breathes and groans

A million unseen voices in the stones

Oh, Æthelburg! Where the patterns bloom

In the space between the stone and the sky's high room

A symphony of structure, a chaotic grace

Finding the melody in this vertical space!

Down from the high air, back to the base

Seeking the anchor, finding a place

Within the hum, the structure holds true

A pattern emerges, me and you

Stone and Sky... the pattern calls

Echoing in the city's walls

Æthelburg... hymn of sound
