A song written during the 2012 Holiday Retreat in Deer Park Monastery.
Music by Nhu-Mai Nguyen (@sorbetskies)
Lyrics by Nhu-Mai and children from the Children’s Program
The Sun! The Sun, it shines!
On my face and on my eyes
The su-u-u-un shines in my heart (2x)
The River! The River, it flows!
From the mountains to my toes
The ri-i-i-ver flows in my heart (2x)
Chorus:
From the mountains, the flowers,
The children, and the deer
We all love each other
There’s a space for everyone in my heart
The Trees! The Trees, they sway!
And give oxygen everyday
The Tree-ee-ees they sway in my heart (2x)
The Birds! The Birds, they fly!
As a school of fish swim by
The Animals are all in my heart (2x)
From the Mountains, the flowers,
The children, and the deer
We all love each other
There’s a space for everyone in my heart
There’s a space for everyone in my heart
There’s a home for everyone in my heart
You are in me and I am in you.
