Living in the Heart of this Moment
Living in the Heart of this Moment
All we have is Here and Now

Divine Love

Embracing this powerful love
flowing through you
Embodiment of divine love
flowing through you
It flows out through your toes
and up through your heart
and out your fingertips and
out through the crown of your head,
and out through the crown of your head
This beauty is inside of you,
This beauty is inside of you
No need to look outside,
No need to look outside
We are all mirrors reflecting
each other’s beauty
We are all mirrors reflecting
each other’s beauty
This beauty is inside of you

Free Yourself

Home resides in me
Wherever I might be
I’m free to roam all the parts of me
I’m free to roam—the Ultimate dwells in me
So let me feel my pain
Dance my Joy
Feel my Pain,
Dance my Joy
Be yourself, it’s the only
one to be
Be or not to be me
I choose to be me
Be or not to be me—
I choose to be free
Free Yourself—Be yourself
There’s no place like home

Yemanja Sai do mar
Vem Buscar A sua Yao
A santa de azul, A santa do mar
Vem ver seus filhos,
Yemanya
Odo odo odo odo
Odo ya do ya do ya
Odo odo odo odo
Odo ya do ya do ya
Yemanja
Yemanja, get out of the sea
Come and get your initiate
The saint in blue, The saint of the sea
Come see your children, Yemanja
Salutation for Yemanja is Odoya. Yemanja is the queen of the
ocean, the nurturing mother of us all. She is the goddess of
fertility and abundance. Often she is seen as a mermaid dressed
in pearls and blue.

Your Love is Enough
02:00
|
|||
|
Your Love is Enough — You are Everything
Everyone’s a part of you
Everyone’s a part of you
Everyone’s a part of you and me
Your love will lighten up the candle
Your love will lighten up the world (2x)
Only love, only love, only love,
only, only, only (2x)
For me, this song is about the realization that it is not about the
giving of love or the receiving of love, it’s about being love. Be
love. If you can be love that’s all you can really offer.

Dance
01:01

Dance if you’re broken open
Dance if you’ve torn the bandage off
Dance in the middle of the fighting.
Dance in your blood
Dance when you’re perfectly free
Struck, the dancers hear a tambourine
inside them,
As a wave turns to foam at its very top, begin
Maybe you don’t hear the tambourine
Close the ears on your head
that listen mostly to lies and cynical jokes
There are other things to see and hear
dance music and a brilliant city,
inside the soul
