the circle of life A soul wrapped in mortality Is born again in strife New born pure fragility begins another life Breif time to take life's measure Enjoy each old delight Learning quickly what to treasure Before the fading of the light Springs gives way to winters frost The seasons change,the young grow old The souls wrapping leaves will soon be lost As the warmth of life turns again to cold This soul released from mortal clay Is set free again from strife Within Gods keeping let it stay Until called once more to life Living teaches us to die And dying teaches us this truth Every death has a new beginning Wrapped inside it |
