Rumi [Alt Version]

Oh, dear Rumi My little baby, I love you You move me, my son You improve me 'Cause you're the one The wisdom of the word, the source of all of creation Ecstasy of devotion in the sound of every action Striving to hear and see all life, an anomaly Never lose thy wonder, the necessity of mystery Be drunk with passion and the peaceful rivers of love Close both your eyes and hear the distant flight of doves When you're grown up in your prime Stay away from God and crime Embody justice for this tormenting, tormented world You will learn something every day Don't dip your toes, go all the way Be the change you wanna see and be the man you want to be Oh, dear Rumi, the supreme poet of love You move me like the sun Become the truth and hold it above all Get lost in the breeze of the trees that stand tall Don't you realize that it's all about knowledge and love? Close both your eyes and hear the distant flight of doves When you're grown up in your prime Stay away from God and crime Embody justice for this tormenting, tormented world You will learn something every day Don't dip your toes, go all the way Be the change you wanna see and be the man you wanna be The man you want to be Dear son, I pray that your days are long And your path matches your song Your smile is worth every sacrifice in this life Your breath now my reason to go on I love you more than I ever could imagine For anything on this earth When you're grown up in your prime Stay away from God and crime Embody justice for this tormenting, tormented world You will learn something every day Don't dip your toes, go all the way When you're grown up in your prime Stay away from God and crime Embody justice for this tormenting, tormented world You will learn something every day Don't dip your toes, go all the way Be the change you wanna see and be the ma And be the man and be the man you want to be
