GARDENS Of LUMBINI
By the gardens, the gardens of Lumbini
We knelt down rejoiced
Rejoiced for Siddhartha
We remember, we remember
We remember Gotama.
GAYA
The lonely winds of Gaya
Sweep o'er the sacred shrine
The words of a holy Master
Stir within my mind
The solitude of Gaya
It drifts a song to me
Recalling the golden Dhamma
Thro' Samsara's sea
The sands of distant Gaya
They sing of the Bodhi-tree
'Neath which attained He wisdom
And found the Way for me.
GO FORTH, O VALIANT HEART
Go forth, O valiant heart, go bravely forth,
To seek in Buddha's Law the lasting peace
Bravely He sought thru years of toil and pain,
The Holy Path which leads to endless peace.
Go forth, o valiant heart, look not behind,
Where earthly joys thy feet would seek to bind;
Before thee waits fair Wisdom's open page,
Where thou the treasures of the Truth shalt find.
Go forth today in Buddha's Holy Path,
And in His teaching find eternal peace,
Through His Great Dhamma thou shalt learn the Truth,
And reach Nirvana's state where sorrows cease.
GOLDEN CHAIN OF LOVE
I'm a link in His golden chain of love
I'm a link in His golden chain of love
I'm a link in the Buddha's golden chain of love
That stretches around the world
I must keep my link bright & strong
I must keep my link bright & strong
I must keep my link ever bright & strong
And let it glow with joy
I'll be kind & gentle to every being
I'll be kind & gentle to every being
I'll be kind & gentle to every living being
And protect those weaker than me
I'll think pure and noble thoughts
I'll say pure and gentle words
I'll do pure and righteous noble deeds
'Cause what I do now mould my life
May every link in His chain be bright and strong
May every link in His chain be bright and strong
May every link in His chain of love be bright and strong
May we attain perfect peace
GREAT IS THE JOY
They say that one who sees with eyes like blazing wisdom sun.
The suffering of all beings who reap for evil they have done.
Who would have guessed the Buddha's light
Illumines the place beyond space and time.
Who would have guess that all along the trea-sures
Of His wisdom lies within your own mind.
CHORUS:
Great is the joy---.
Great is the joy---.
Great is the joy---.
With in my heart---.
What you are is what you have done
What you do you will become.
Don't keep looking for what you never lost
Turn the light a-round take yourself across.
The sea of suffering is deep and wide
A turn of the hand is the other side.
Great is the joy---.
With in my heart---.
REPEAT CHORUS TWICE:
From the tape A Light In The Darkness
