What's the meaning of this life
What's the meaning of this life
To birth a fair wee bairn
To grow and nurture love and peace
For the world to gain
The child becomes an adult
Their knowledge knows no bounds
Their wisdom and ferocious strength
Stands witness all around
The child becomes a parent
The love it lingers on
It spreads and intertwined as one
But soon the child is gone
The earth it keeps on turning
Whirling through the day
Until you stop and notice
All you loved has gone away
The early times forgotten
The memories faded now
The end of life is nearing
The end of love is now
