The Tao

lt's a trick of the light,
it's a flicker of delight.
Some tricks - I am to know!
It will ever stay - the Tao.
It brings light into night,
it is to be seen at bright daylight.
I will always be it's knight,
that is - to be alive alight.

As I'm a son to the sun,
borne from mother earth's dawn,
I will kiss her alive,
when I'll find my wife.
To live my life
is every days jive.

"Let's have a drive
to some woman's door,
give her your life,
she'll be Côte d'Or."

Just built a city on rock'n roll,
seen all those girls like baby doll,
but now the woman is on the call,
I'll root myself - I do stand tall.

"Stand fast and listen to the lovely call.
From loneliness to happiness
there is tension in it at all."

I'll build my home.
Me - I am welcome to the pleasure dome.
Able to live on both sides,
going to and coming from,
me - I am a lucky one.

"And coming from and going to -
remember, what you've got to do!
Remember, that your name is 'homme',
you are a brother to the sun!"

'cause we are lovers on our way,
just let us sing the ancient pray -
to Mother Earth and Father Sun,
to Sister Night and Brother Day.


Tension to praise, to worship rest,
I will do my very best.

You, open hands reaching out in time,
as I take yours, I'll give you mine.

Doing the yoga, resting in time,
companion body is answering fine.

And Holy Spirit Father Ghost,
for you I'll do the uttermost.

Sending you pictures,
that I have borne,
telling you stories
of life so torn.
Don' t cast a spell,
I do not mourn.
Have a look at me,
touching tenderly.
I tell you
that life is happy to be

I teach the pictures
I've sown and seen.
I do tell rhymes
of life in time.
I do you call -
beloved, my soul.
I look for you,
I care for you,
for happy I am
to be with you

the Tao
