lyrics

7. All people live

All people live and bloom like flowers
And though I am young, I am dried up like old grass
I am going to leave this world, abandon it, go to the monastery *
There I will live and serve all people *
There I will build a new hermitage cottage *
A new hermitage with three small windows *
One window onto the open field *
Another window onto the blue sea *
The third window onto my green garden *
In the open field the men will plow *
And on the blue sea the ships will sail *
And in my garden, nightingales will sing *
Sing, sing you little lark *
In the spring sitting where the snow has just thawed

* Repeat twice
