Dominant Winds

The hills erode, a change of landmarks

And ancient trees are skinned

Of (leaves) branches and the outer bark

By an ever blowing wind

Its rule and strength lead the rise and fall

Insects drift along the sweeping regime

At mountainous locations massive rainfall

Still, birds follow their inner scheme

From the polar cyclone

A timeless and transparent grindstone

And by the trade winds of the equator

The air flow builds a subtropical gyrator

The hills erode, a change of landmarks

And ancient trees are skinned

Of (leaves) branches and the outer bark

By an ever blowing wind

From the polar cyclone

A timeless and transparent grindstone

Pressure is high but the sun angle is low

Dominant winds

Pressure is high but the sun angle is low

Dominant winds scalp the ridge's crest

Cooling and condensation grows

It hauls from the north and heads from east to west

We're strapped in this blusterous maze

Still unaware of its daily toil

We'll get a glimpse of its power and pace

As we're standing on degraded soil

From the polar cyclone

A timeless and transparent grindstone

And by the trade winds of the equator

The air flow builds a subtropical gyrator
