Common Soul

The sparrow, the flower and the dove
all carry the same heart; the heart of love
do you envision the vision
that rivers, butterflies and rain have same origins
everything you see is a reflection of one another
just different shapes, different colors
all behave and believe the same
known by different names
it’s the common soul that exists in every creature
in all the bodies and spirits found in nature
give love and care, they’ll flourish and mature
the more you give, more blessings would knock your door
nourish, care and never hurt
throw away thoughts that make life look so blur
it’s the common soul which breathes inside all of us
it’s the common soul that springs inside all of us

The rainbow, the lily and the skylark
all bring contentment to the lonely heart
how does nature know and provide
all that what you need to survive
the mountains, the winds and the clouds
to each other are all connected and bound
it’s the same breath of life in everything found
the unique yet the same sound
of river waves and mountain winds
just different shapes, variant tinges
it’s the common soul that exists in every creature
in all the bodies and spirits found in nature
give love and care, they’ll flourish and mature
the more you give, more blessings would knock your door
nourish, care and never hurt
throw away thoughts that make life look so blur
it’s the common soul which breathes inside all of us
it’s the common soul that springs inside all of us
