We meditate upon the Holy Mother
Who is wearing a white garment
Who is effulgent
Who is ever established in Truth
Whose glances beam with Love
Who is the seat of the six Godly qualities
Whose radiant smile adorns Her face with auspiciousness
Who incessantly showers the nectar of affection
Who sings devotional songs most sweetly
Whose complexion resembles that of rain clouds
Whose words are soaked in honey
Who is bliss immortal
Who is the Supreme Goddess Herself
I prostrate before the Immortal Mother of Supreme Bliss

Crowns of Trees

There's been trouble in your heart for so many years
It didn't even start the day I got here
This is the oldest story around
Yeah its the same for me too
Neither one of us knows what to do
Yeah you cant blame your past
Can’t look to what's to come either
This worlds just movin too fast
You can’t leave it to beaver
The sorrows they don't last and the happiness just disappears as fast
What were we to do
Not enough money to fake it through
And the family is so far away and the friends never stay
But wipe that frown from your face
Come with me well walk through these trees
Say hello to the leaves
What everybody wants to know
What everybody wants to see
Is a sky of gold
What everybody wants to know
What everybody thinks they've found
Is buried underneath the ground
But your running so fast
Cant think about a day and then it comes
Me I'm sincerely yours now and forever more
(Amma! Amma!)
You are sincerely dear to the one you’ve always known
(Amma! Amma!)
We are sincerely here
(Amma! Amma!)
Say hello to the leaves
Up on the crowns of the trees
Cause what everybody wants to know is to
Find out where we come from
And what everybody wants to leave is the
Doubt about where we go
Nobody I know wants to think about,
In the summer,
The coming snow

Holy Water
Bless my heart
Cool my body
I hear the songs of your daughters
"Will we ever be set free
To run again
To Blue River?"
Holy Mother
Your voice is soft and clear
Why do the holy ghosts wander
In the redwood valley
They run with the dear
Not far from here
And back to Blue River
I release the pain
That took me away from you
Take me home!
To Blue River
High on the mountain
Mother heal these wounded doves
"Let us fly again
Let your Blue Rivers run
And let us fly above them"
Holy Mother
In the form of the Father
All I want to do is smile
And wake up here
For all the rest of my years
And let my heart be a medicine
To all the world
I am letting go
Of the mystery I cannot hold
I'm going to the Home
Of Love until its Universal
Now I feel your sorrows
But I ain't gonna drink it down
I will listen to the sounds
Until its Love in
Blue Rivers

Whatever your pain make no mistake
You will find your truth
Whatever ails you, snow rain or hail too
The clouds are just moving through
If you lose your way or you don't get paid
For all the work you do
If you lose your mind or you drink bad wine
Or you sleep the whole day through
Or if you go blind or you cant stop from cryin
Or if you've got something to prove
Or if you lose your faith at night
I will wait for you
Yes I will wait for you
Now if your heart is burnin cause the world's uncertain
Or if you're hiding out in your room (my heart's on fire!)
If you live on the street, your family's got nothin to eat
Or if you sacrifice all your fruit
Or if you go blind or you can't stop from cryin
Or if you've got nothin left to prove
If your train didn't leave on time
I will wait for you
Yes I will wait for you

Sun on the Valley

The setting sun moves through the valley
The first day of spring in my heart
The leaves are green and all shimmering
The sun leaves a sky full of sparks
Night is coming o' the valley
The floor is falling to sleep
The hills are golden as anything
That is worthy to see
And I find you loving even
In the dark of the night
Night never falls apart from
The Light that we carry inside
The whispering wind sends a memory
Of a Love that we had before time
If time wasn't bothered for asking
Will the love that we have set us right?

(Lay my head on Truth!)
Its been a long cold spring
But I know that you'll soon be on your way
I'd give anything to be travelin by your side
But the mother of muses paints the clouds back to grey
So I help you pack your bags
So you can make it all the way
Across the California mountains
Where your dreams will come awake
I want to lay my head on a rose colored bed
And wait for June
Or take the next step and dive into the ocean up ahead
When all I do is think of you
Its the summer of your life
Take this fire let is guide your way through the night
I'd give anything to be travelin by your side
I wouldn't miss one chance for the medicine of you
Roses to pass me by
So I help you pack your bags
So you can make it all the way
Back over the ocean
I pray these dreams will come awake
(Lay my head on Truth!)
I want to lay my head on a rose colored bed
And wait for you
(Lay my head on Truth!)
Or take the next step and dive
Into the Ocean up ahead
Just to feel the magnificence of your flowers in full bloom
(Lay my head on Truth!)
So all I do is think of You

I've been waiting so long for this shell to break
I've done every lover wrong
Nothin to celebrate!
Its like old Edwin Hubble saw me a little too late
I'd already come and gone so
He named me after my wake
Now I'm bringing gifts to children and
Food to the starvin
Blankets to mothers in the cold
So just tell me what you need I'll lend an ear or a sleeve
And tell me everything you know
And when it rains throw some timber on the fire of my soul
(I'm a red bed of coals..)
Now I don't require much just a simple melody
Maybe a little secret something for to look at you and wink
For now I'm a teacup in your cupboard
Please put your lips on me or
When your tea kettle is hummin Love
Fill me with somethin sweet
Maybe a little tea leaf...

Where will I be in 40 years now that I met you?
Dreams of endless summers and laughter and children too
We can drive up north to the woods before it gets cold
Cause you know how the seasons change and every leaf grows old
All I can tell is that I love you now
Who will I be in 40 years now that I met you?
Dreams of a home together where the songbirds gather round
You can plant your flowers in the gardens round the house
Don't forget to tell me you love me at night before we lay down
All that I have known is changing now
If it rains all summer long
If the night stays through the dawn
I will only Love you more
Who will we meet in 40 years now that I met you?
Working in some city or traveling some place far
Walking hand in hand or driving in my car
There’s nobody else who will ever take my heart
Will you take my hand?
If it rains all summer long
If the night stays through the dawn
I will only Love you more

Love

Love is a well tended fire
Over the mountain
Up like a spire
The smokeless flame of the Dawn
Always tells me which road I'm on
And I'm walkin home
I'm walkin home to You
Across mountains and valleys high noon
And the winter is somewhere around
In the bend for Lover's who've found
A warm rue to roll
Into the high flaming moon
And Love is tended by the night
Though Love wears a face of the day
And Love will take your rage
And devour a howling moon
Yes Love sells no need for fire
The water to the Ocean retires
Yes Love is around and within
And Love was the Creator of sin
And Love is free its true
Love is always free
And Love is on its knees
To be true
Love is all we've ever needed
And Love will run this world
When Love is in your heart
And Love is a fire, its true
And Love is True
Love is Truth
Over your heart is the head of the sun
And whenever your done
Om Sri Guru Bhyo Namah Hari Om
