Waking One - Shimshai

In every day we have begun

With every waking one

I pray for our daughters and our sons

I pray for the light within their eyes

That forever their freedom flies

I pray for the day;

the day has come

If ever you fall into the night

And lose all sense of sight

Remember that darkness births the light

And when you rise again once more

Still stronger than before

You’ll know the time you came here for

And through my eyes I’m feeling older now

In knowing how

I made my vow

And so I feel a little closer now

I take my bow

Your time is now

So follow the path unto the sun

Where lies the waking one

And when you rise the dream is done

Melodies, ancient voice, and song

Will keep you safe and make you strong

To not forget what’s yet to come

So live your dreams and dream of truth

Dream of life and live your youth

And one day you will look back through

Remember the way that we have come

All as daughters and as sons

So pray for the day to carry on

And through this life we find our fears and truths

In age and youth

And so we choose

And through my eyes I’ve seen in color too

The world as new

I’ll see you through

Realize upon the first lightrays of the sun

To embrace the morning light of victory we have won

Hey, yes, within this rising no longer dreaming is done

The light of consciousness shines to behold the waking one

True love is stronger than ever

Heavy and light as a feather

Always connected and severed

Now listen, youth, here’s my message

Remember all life is precious

And that we share the same essence

And what you do to harm others

It only shatters reflections

And it diminishes treasures

So let us live with forgiveness

So when we look back

We find we love beyond measure

All of our daughters and sons

Once mothers unto all ones

Melodic voices have sung

New ancient times have begun

Get ready for what’s to come

All of the seeds we plant now

Will flourish under the sun

So keep your heart in alignment

With all your thoughts, words, and actions

Keep your relations authentic

And free yourself of distractions

And move towards the sun

And through my eyes I’m feeling older now

In knowing how

I made my vow

And so I feel a little closer now

I take my bow

Your time is now

In every day we have begun

With every waking one

I pray for our daughters and our sons

I pray for the light within their eyes

That forever their freedom flies

I pray for the day;

the day has come
