about

Avrom Sutzkever in Vilna sought strength from God’s hand beneath the stars. Petr Ginz in Theresienstadt tilled ideas that rose like shining stars. Pavel Friedmann and Anne Frank in solitude penned odes praising nature from a distance. And children on journeys alone were guided by the familiar stars above.

lyrics

From Vilna’s silent, cellared holes
Avrom beckons God’s light hand
To reach beneath His pearly stars
Suspended hope in single strands

Petr tills with intellect
Terezin’s mud-engraven ground
His ideas rise like shining stars
And orbit still, afire, unbound

Pavel Friedmann and Anne Frank
Report their worlds though far apart
He misses yellow butterflies
She yearns for stars she can chart

A child adrift in wartime current
Suitcase packed for journeys far
Precious things, the sole companion
Guided by glimmering stars
