jig of life

• genç bir kadın suda boğulmak üzere iken - talihsiz bir kaza ya da intihar olabilir yaşadığı - suyun içinde yaşlı bir kadın beliriverir; genç kadın gelecekteki kendisi ile karşı karşıya gelir ve yaşlı kadın genç olanı neden ölmemesi gerektiğine dair ikna etmeye çalışır..
  zaman, şimdiyi ayakta tutmak için geleceği bugünle konuşturmaktadır..
  ve, su içine düşen için kendiyle karşılaşabileceği yegane ortamdır..
  
  kate bush'un şarkı hakkında söyleyecekleri var:
  "at this point in the story, it's the future self of this person coming to visit them to give them a bit of help here. i mean, it's about time they have a bit of help. so it's their future self saying, "look, don't give up, you've got to stay alive, 'cause if you don't stay alive, that means i don't." you know, "and i'm alive, i've had kids [laughs]. ı've been through years and years of life, so you have to survive, you mustn't give up."
  this was written in ireland. at one point i did quite a lot of writing, you know, i mean lyrically, particularly. and again it was a tremendous sort of elemental dose ı was getting, you know, all this beautiful countryside. spending a lot of time outside and walking, so it had this tremendous sort of stimulus from the outside. and this was one of the tracks that the irish musicians that we worked with was featured on."

• "two hands clap and there is a sound. what is the sound of one hand?"^*
  
  "..in the beginning a monk first thinks a koan is an inert object upon which to focus attention; after a long period of consecutive repetition, one realizes that the koan is also a dynamic activity, the very activity of seeking an answer to the koan. the koan is both the object being sought and the relentless seeking itself. ın a koan, the self sees the self not directly but under the guise of the koan ... when one realizes ("makes real") this identity, then two hands have become one. the practitioner becomes the koan that he or she is trying to understand. that is the sound of one hand."
• siir gibidir... huzur veren bi sarki.... tum cistakligiyla...

  hello, old lady
  i know your face well
  i know it well, she says
  "ooh, na-na
  na-na-na
  na-na-na
  i'll be sitting in your mirror
  now is the place where the crossroads meet
  will you look into the future?"
  
  "never, never say goodbye
  to my part of your life."
  no, no, no, no-no
  oh, let me live
  she said, "c'mon and let me live, girl,"
  she said, "c'mon and let me live, girl,"
  (c'mon and let me live)
  
  "this moment in time,"
  she said
  "it doesn't belong to you,"
  she said
  "it belongs to me
  and to your little boy and to your little girl
  and the one hand clapping
  where on your palm is my little line
  when you're written in mine
  as an old memory?"
  ooh, na-na
  na-na-na
  na-na-na
  na-na-na
  na-na-na
  na-na-n—
  
  "never, never say goodbye
  to my part of your life
  oh no, no, no, no, no
  oh, never, never, never, never, never let me go,"
  she said, "c'mon and let me live, girl,"
  (c'mon and let me live!)
  she said, "c'mon and let me live, girl,"
  (c'mon and let me live)

  i put this moment here
  i put this moment here
  i put this moment
  over here!
  over here!
  
  [outro: john carder bush]
  can't you see where memories are kept bright?
  tripping on the water like a laughing girl
  time in her eyes is spawning past life
  one with the ocean and the woman unfurled
  holding all the love that waits for you here
  catch us now for i am your future
  a kiss on the wind and we'll make the land
  come over here to where when lingers
  waiting in this empty world
  waiting for then, when the life spray cools
  for now does ride in on the curl of the wave
  and you will dance with me in the sunlit pools
  we are of the going water and the gone
  we are of water in the holy land of water
  and all that's to come runs in
  with the thrust on the strand
