Lyrics:
That is no country for old men. The young
In one another's arms, birds in the trees,
—Those dying generations—at their song,
The salmon-falls, the mackerel-crowded seas,
Fish, flesh, or fowl, commend all summer long
Whatever is begotten, born, and dies.
Caught in that sensual music all neglect
Monuments of unageing intellect.
Artist commentary:
I decided to do something a bit different than most and experiment with traditional painting.
Makin: (wiki editor)
The lyrics come from "Sailing to Byzantium", a Yeats poem about a spiritual journey.
