lyrics

A Root In Each Act and Creature
Hafiz/Ladinsky/ Levin © 2013

Sun’s eyes are painting fields again.
Disguised eyelashes sweep the land.
Embraced by sunlight’s masquerade,
The Earth’s a canvas on parade.

Chorus:
If just a little clay and water in a bowl
Reveals these wonders to behold…
What new delights will soon unfold?
The endless petals of the soul.

One heart resides in everything
Renew your body, hear it sing.
Each act and creature we perceive
Has roots in one who can conceive.

Chorus. The endless petals of the soul,
The endless petals of the soul…

Sun’s eyes are painting fields again.
Disguised eyelashes sweep the land.
Illuminated scents and sounds
Exquisite whirling forms abound.

Chorus. The endless petals of the soul,
The endless petals of the soul…

Sun’s eyes are painting fields again.
