Those of you who are familiar with the Dinotopia books by James Gurney may have seen that in two of them are notes for melodies which I presume James Gurney composed. Out of interest I wrote the melodies down with NoteWorthy and created these midis which I want to share with you:
A song of Dinotopia This song is from "A land apart from time", Gurney's first Dinotopia book. The lyrics are:
Come forth in joy to greet the morn,
Ye shipwrecked trav'lers on our shores reborn.
Look up to see the rosy banners rise,
the dawn's new promise writ across the skys.
Breath deep,
Seek peace.
Join all and one the great parade,
In bright-hued feathers or in scales arrayed.
Life's spirit garbed in various attire,
Our is land's wardrobe does its soul inspire.
Breath deep,
Seek peace.
Come round the fountain, crystal spring,
Let ancient wisdom from its sources bring;
A drink to cool the waring and the strife,
the quiet waters of enduring life.
Breath deep,
Seek peace.
