So fierce is love

Nothing is more fierce

Nothing is so fierce in all the world

So fierce is love...

So will the mother wren attack the squirrel

Or the mountain cat or even the bear

Nothing in all the world is as fierce as love...

She doesn't think about it

So full is her mind with joy

For offspring, for mate,

For the blessed winds of life...

She soars through storm and sun alike

Plays on rising air,

Sings from her heart;

She is not of great size

She has not claws to rend

Nor teeth to rip and tear

But all who truly know her

Know she has one thing

That is beyond all others...

She is fierce...

Nothing is more fierce...

Nothing is so fierce in all the world...

Nothing is so fierce as love.
