Kindness

Kindness When music is delightful, you are sad When life is full of ecstasy, you're mad Mad with its festivity, you can't rejoice You can't have fun or find a friendly voice You get angry, and you make others angry too Disturbing the peace that belongs to you Even the best, the most harmonious words Scratch up your ears like the cry of wild birds Were unity and togetherness a marriage today To you it's insincere, just a cold display Yeah, you would like to stir, confuse and scold Loneliness and breakup have taken a hold It has blinded your beholder, dark and deep While the rest of the world has a promise to keep But look how nicely one can lean on a shoulder How beautifully they suit each other as they grow older On the swing of time, under skies so blue Father, mother, children, all shining through They're so happy, their spirits chime Composing a vital song for all of time It is silent and wordless, a wonderful sing-along Where the weak find a place and the weary belong Many fingers as one, locked tight and secure Ten turning in a circle, steady and pure One hand with another, moving in stride Leaving the anger and shadow outside Look how nicely one can lean on a shoulder How beautifully they suit each other as they grow older On the swing of time, under skies so blue Father, mother, children, all shining through They're so happy, their spirits chime Composing a vital song for all of time So let your bells ring, step into the light! Get into that circle, dance through the night! Let your shawl wave in the air, let it fly! Put on a smile, give the world a try! Take a chance... © 2026 - T. Dean Fidan
