6. SMILING HEARTS

The three of us walking down the road
Talking, joking around, laughing so much we could explode
Running down the field, yelling, scaring a flock of geese
Then watching them fly through the sky like a majestic fleet
We share the same heartbeat, in tune like African drums
We fill the space with trust, it feels good to be us
Sharing the silence, simplicity, eternity
Feeling this life deeply, enjoying its purity
Enjoying totality with all its parts
We embrace each other with smiling hearts
Tender like tiny feathers touching the skin
Love and friendship is all we need in this world of sin
Feels like I’ve known you forever, familiar souls
I recognize you by the sparkle in the eyes
Lo and behold, we’ve been here before
Same essence, just playing different roles
There is beauty in transience, but the story just goes on and on
We forever transform
Our creative essence comes straight from the Source
And the love that we feel is an unstoppable force
It feels good to support and feel supported
It feels good to live life and fully own it
And just flow with it, not trying to control it
For all the blessings around us we stay open
The sun is setting, we’ve reached the lake
It’s time to go back, it’s getting late
But before we do, just one last thing
Could you please sing that beautiful song:

Lea Rau & Luana Deloos (a.k.a. TFC) – Trommel, mein Herz, für das Leben

Original German lyrics:

Trommel, mein Herz, für das Leben
Singe das Lied des Friedens
Trommel, mein Herz, für das Leben
Singe das Lied des Friedens
Dass die Erde heller und schöner werde
Dass die Erde heller und schöner werde

English translation:

Drum for life, my heart
Sing the song of peace
Drum for life, my heart
Sing the song of peace,
May the Earth become brighter and more beautiful
May the Earth become brighter and more beautiful
