A gentle drizzle of happiness falls
deep inside my heart today.
A musical breeze embraces me
deep inside my soul today.
My heart feels so light,
and this earth turns into a garden of flowers.
Love feels like the greatest thing here,
for love is all that every living being needs.
The footprints of spring can be seen,
and I realize that life is a blessing.
Every direction opens up for us,
and nature hears my voice.
My heart feels so light,
and this earth turns into a garden of flowers.
Love feels like the greatest thing here,
for love is all that every living being needs.
My heart feels so light,
and this earth turns into a garden of flowers.
Love feels like the greatest thing here,
for love is all that every living being needs.
The footprints of spring can be seen,
and I realize that life is a blessing.
Every direction opens up for us,
and nature hears my voice.
The weather in our sky is changing now;
the fierce storm has crossed the shore.
This love is what the whole universe asks for,
and so the first seed begins to sprout here.
The right to live in the vast forest,
this spinning world has not given us.
The greatness within our bond,
there is no way for the world to understand.
The weather in our sky is changing now;
the fierce storm has crossed the shore.
This love is what the whole universe asks for,
and so the first seed begins to sprout here.
My heart feels so light,
and this earth turns into a garden of flowers.
Love feels like the greatest thing here,
for love is all that every living being needs.
The footprints of spring can be seen,
and I realize that life is a blessing.
Every direction opens up for us,
and nature hears my voice.
