Oh, humble salt, gift from the Earth,
We offer our gratitude for your worth.
Teacher of proportion and balance,
Model of prudence and taste,
May we grow our lineage on your back,
So that we may help others grow in turn.
Let us go where we’re needed;
Let us depart from excess.
Let us carry what needs to move;
Let us keep what should remain.
Let us stand still to witness and let us grow silent so that we may hear.
Let us come together, and let us fall apart, only to come together once more.
Thank you, great salt, for all you do.
We know we owe this life to you.
