Dance of Fire
Embraced with sensations of love and happiness
Around huge fire for light and warmth
Leaping round and round like frogs in rainy season;
Dancing and dancing through darkness of the night
For nothing but pride and oneness
Not living like angels but full of hope
Having not much to choose from but full of tender
What they had, was for everyone
Whatever was done, was for all of them;
Music and dance always there to keep them alive
Dancing for fire like whales dancing for water
I saw them gliding for the moon and the stars
Watched them dancing to thrive
Soaring more and more as the night crawl
Taking their spirits to places they never saw
So, living their lives like sea creatures
Always hoping for the best to come
Dance of fire, peace and love among people,
Wishing for joy and happiness
Dance of hope and oneness
Lost like dust in space
Only love will make us dance again
