When God First Said
(N. Zach, M. Caspi)

When god first said: "Let there be light"
He wanted that it wouldn't be dark for him
He didn't think about the skies
but the trees began soaking water
and birds received air and body
Then, the first wind blew in our lord's face
and he saw it and thought that it was good
He didn't think about the people
but they began thinking about themselves
and they began plotting a vicious conspiracy
about pain
When our lord thought about the night
he didn't think about sleep
"That way I'll be happy" the good lord said to himself
but they were already too many.
