Alive


Whenever the clouds

Of pain and sadness loomed,

Whenever the eyes drowned in tears,

Whenever the beating heart got scared,

I asked it,

Oh Heart, why do you cry?

These things are typical in our world.

 

Moments of silence, the world has given to everyone,

Melancholy and joy are part of every life,

Your tears flow without reason,

Every second brings a new season,

So Heart, why do you cry?

 

Learn to be free like the wind,

Learn to flow like water,

Embrace every moment with an open heart,

Let your eyes see the beauty in life,

If your eyes carry a surprise, it means you are alive,

If your heart beats eagerly, it means you are alive
