I am saying life, I am saying life
Not behind a curtain
Not behind masks whose names I do not even know
I am saying life
Bravely and truly…
Alongside butterflies fluttering in the belly
Sometimes just feeling
I am saying life
Simply, without knowing anything about everything
Like a galloping herd crossing the steppe
I am saying life
Undoubtedly, unburdened and wholesome
In the light of gratitude repeated again and again each morning
Like a raindrop falling on glass
So sorrowful, so wildly alive
Like a bee leaving its hive each day to visit a thousand flowers
Like a squirrel sniffing the blossoms of spring
To live so sincerely, so truly
To run and roll over the fields, drenched in dew
Then to hear a few birds chirping
Could all this be life?
To listen, to the whole of nature, the birds, the roaring flow of the river
And to be startled suddenly by an unfamiliar voice
A clock ringing in the ears
Then to awaken
I am saying life, perhaps it is just like this…
