OM SHANTI


 

 
Something deep inside of me
My personal connection to eternity
In a place, I can always be free

Om Shanti
Om is the song of the soul
Shanti is the peace that never gets old
A blissful dream that can't be told

The cycle of life has passed us many times
The man preaches about the direction
To a destination, he has never been
If you don't believe him it is just a sin

Om Shanti
Om is the song of the unseen goal
Shanti is the sweet tranquility
Just a spoonful in our tea

In the way, you think is the peace
In the way, you talk the words of peace
In the way that you walk
You become the image of peace

Om Shanti
Om is the song of the universe
Shanti is calming lovingness in our mind
More than a gift feel the stillness
