BAMBOO FLUTE
Bamboo flute, sounding forth beauty
Carried aloft on gentle winds
Genteel flute, what wisdom do you impart
Comforting the soul and the heart
Genteel wind, do you hear what the flute says
Comforting echoes heard on the wind
Many do not hear you, where have you been
The flute calls lovers to passionate embrace
Calm indifference, the flute knows only envy
It cares not, who has heard its voice
The wind chimes sing out in praise of the flute
Together, they embrace that which is beauty
Sing the praises of the sounds, which escape
The spirit of the bamboo flute is within my soul
Years of not listening, have taken their toll
Take time; listen to what the flute proclaims
Peace and harmony, oblivious to those with deaf ears
The understanding of the message, which is told
They hear, but they do not listen, thru-out the years
Serenity comes from within, listen to the flute
