Though all of us and all things known
Seem from each other separated,
We creations aren't so alone--
We're with each other integrated.
*Each of us, every son and daughter--
However surreal may seem this notion--
Is just a tiny drop of water
In the world's infinite ocean.
We're stirred together every day
In all the good and bad we do.
This is karma's eternal play--
A drama that we don't see through.
*
Deluded that we're each alone,
We drops fall from the sky like rain--
Tears of the clouds. The sins we own
Cause our own, and our neighbours', pain.
When we raindrops fall in the ocean,
We wisely see the waves rise and fall.
Yin and yang are in the waves' motion:
This should be a guide for us all.
