It is a joy to be alive
Smell the flowers
Feel the first drops of the on the outstretched hand
See the clouds in the blue sky
Notice the birds flying about
See the leaves and the branches of the trees
Feel the wind sway
See the running stream
Walk in the forest
Smell the pine trees
Smell the earth after the rain
It is a joy to be alive

See the sunrise
and the sunset

See the roar of the oceans
and the wet sand beneath my feet
All times I remember thee


Feel the rustle of the dried leaves as I walk on them
Feel the cool breeze
It is a joy to be alive

See the moonlight
See the awesome full moon
It is so magical
The soul at peace during the night
The quiet of the night
It is a joy to be alive
To think of thee
To love the
and be loved in return by thee
It is a joy to be alive
In the stillness of the night

When all are asleep
and I lay awake thinking of thee

and I yearn for thee
and I long for thee
I whisper to myself thine name
No one knows but me

It is a secret shared from the universe
No one knows
But I whisper the name to myself
When I am alone

Memories of time gone
Sweet memories I do cherish
It is a joy to be alive
It is a joy to be alive

The soul at peace within
The radiance shining on everything that I touch
Beauty inside reflected in joy of the heart
A contented heart
That yearns for none but thee
Only thee
Only thee
No one can fill but thee
A fulfilled heart
Content and at peace with world
No desires
No ambitions
Nothing but thine memory
That is enough to sustain me
It is a joy to be alive
It is a joy to be alive
I cherish thine memory
Enough to sustain me
For I will meet thee
I know
Hence, the joy of my heart
It is a joy to be alive
I live to meet thee
I live to meet the
That is the only ambition
The only thing I want
I see thee in everything
All feelings
All sights
All beauty in the universe is but thee
I love to meet the one day
The joy of living in thine memory
No one knows but thee
I and thee are one
In this journey of life
It is joy to be alive
I is a joy to be alive
