It’s easy, you see, to find the li,
Since the li’s all around, everywhere you can see.
When you hear that bird tweet in the trees
When you feel the warm sun through the breeze
Then you’ve found it, you’re in touch with the infinite li.
—
It’s easy, you see, to find the li,
Except when we lock it away for no-one to see
When we seal it up with the barriers of self
Through our constant pursuit of happiness and wealth,
Then we blind ourselves to the infinite li.
—
It’s easy, you see, to hear the li
Since it’s bubbling up all the while within me
Those trillions of cells dancing effortlessly
Cheek-to-cheek in free choreography,
I’m in touch with – I am – the infinite li.
—
It’s easy, you see, to feel the li
When you surf the waves of the ceaseless sea
When dancing the dance of ecstasy.
Since love is the li’s connectivity
My li is in you, and your li is in me
So our li is our true immortality.
Finding the li
