Eternity
Live in a moment and stay with it
Moment to moment is a way to go
This way time does not exist
Only eternity unfolds ~~~
I look at the trees and they beckon to me
Waving their leaves or staying motionless
Time elapses and time stands still
And eternity unfold ~~~
I look at the birds saluting the day
Chirping and hopping joyfully
Light on the wings and light in the hearts
Time dissolves and ecstasy unfolds ~~~
We rack our heads about how to live
About how to make future happy and prosperous
Let us learn from the birds and from the trees
How to rejoice in the moment
