Life can do more than you
Lyrics by : Shuang Quan and Xueling
Music by : Xueling
hey, put up the song i was singing that day :) here are the lyrics as I remember them. sorry, haven't played it for really long. I only wrote verse 2. the rest is by my melbourne Dharma talk tranlsator team group leader: shuang quan. He wrote it as a poem, to submit for a competition. I think he it got selected and now this poem is hanging on the walls of a hospital. another great way to spread the Dharma!!!! ANyway, with kind permission from him, I put this uP :) so enjoy.
Failures are like faithful friends
ALways there when you are down
Sometimes you wonder how life began.
Am I a scientist, or a clown?
then something deep stirs within you
and bestows the faith anew
That's when you start to realise...
Ther'es nothing you can't do!
Chorus
Our body works in mysterious ways
An inner sanctum of peace
A balance of karma always in play
ONe we cannot resist
So rest when you're weary
Say a prayer or two
Coz that's when you realise
Life can do more than you.
Verse 2:
When life's full of troubles
and you're feeling tired and blue
remember life's just an illusion
face your troubles than welcome the new
Remember Lord Buddha's teachings,
hold on to you faith
That's when you start to realise
Ther'es nothing you can't face
Chorus
Verse 3
All work with no play is pure irony
What does a title mean when it's given post humously
An entertaining paradox
Of studying ourselves
Instead of delaying
We ring our own knells
