Perkins - III. Lament and IV. Return from “The Siren’s Call” - 20th Annual All-Star Concert, UCLA

Soprano: Sofia Dell'Agostino Conductor: Oliver Chan Composer: Naveed Perkins Schoenberg Hall, UCLA 20th Annual All-Star Concert January 31st, 2026 _______________________ Text by Naveed Perkins: III. Lament The sea is calm now, And yet a stirring remains. Is it me? A yearning hunger consumes Me in my wake, unending. Is it me? Is this love? Bones chilled by such violent waters, I could never live in any calm, yet I yearn. A warmth in this water no longer remains. A warmth I’ve never felt before. Is it you? Is this love? Was I wrong? O Sailor, please come back. I love you, I love you. IV. Return This pain, this love, my heart, It hurts. This pain, I yearn, I hurt. O Sailor, my heart is crying for you. A desire consumes me now without you here. These waves, this ocean, all but myself calm. What is this presence I feel? No, do my eyes deceive me? Oh, it is you my Sailor! Oh how I have missed you! Oh how I have longed For your warmth, For your touch, For your scent, For your flesh! _______________________
