Who are we

Why is up down from the roof?
Why is here there from the bridge?
Why is nothing filled with sorrow?
Why is no yes in the morrow?

We see.
We eat.
We go.
We stay.
We cry.
We dance.
We pray.

Pray for love,
happiness,
life.
Pray for nothing and everything alike.

We are blind.
We are gluttonous.
We are lazy.
We are asleep.
We are hypocrites.
We are in a trance.
We are I.

We are many, yet we know us not.
We are together, yet we are alone.
Alone we are ... not,
for Someone is always watching,
caring
loving,
curing,
giving,
feeding,
forgiving.

We think we know, yet we fail to comprehend.
We think we are smart, yet what fools we are.
We think we are different, alas not true.
We think we are the same, indeed a lie.

To understand you have to forget who you are,
to live the life of the other -
to see with his eyes,
to smile with her smile,
to feel their hearts,
to remember our path.

We live, we love, we are happy!
For happiness is nought other than love
and what is love but happiness, indeed.
