The Morning Song

When we feel down and out,

and nothing in life feels worthwhile,

Let's rise before the sun and open the window,

and greet him with a resilient smile.

Let's listen to the songs we sang when we were young,

and borrow our youth from the clutches of time.

Let's look at the world through the sieve of wisdom,

and face our fears till they fritter away.

Let's revive that spirit that made us feel glorious,

and one with the entire universe.

A universe that's our friend and is full of possibilities.

Let us get prepared to get soiled and dirty,

and plant new seeds of hard work.

Let us feel the blood in our veins,

And hear the music of our heartbeat.

Let us begin to give ourselves

The gift of life we forgot to live!
