THE NOCTURNAL
The season is changing; cloudless sulphur butterflies are migrating and the immortal fig tree unleashes its deep fragrance. Using the Sun to keep them on course, these yellow butterflies migrate during the day and at night they dance towards the glow of the Moon.
When a butterfly appears in a dream, some believe a transformation is underway. The mysterious relationship between sleep, dreams, and discovery is the inspiration of our NOCTURNAL RIDE
We love the silent hour of night / From blissful dreams may arise
The more fearful thoughts we found / Greater our delight
What a gorgeous night to ride
We love the silent hour of night
From blissful dreams may arise
The more fearful thoughts we found
Greater our delight
What a gorgeous night to ride
We found chains of burning gold / We survived the meeting of Gods
To-night we saw the sulphurs fly / Shine forth upon the trees
We rode beneath the moon / Of our half-forgotten dreams
We found chains of burning gold
We survived the meeting of Gods
To-night we saw the sulphurs fly
Shine forth upon the trees
We rode beneath the moon
Of our half-forgotten dreams
