Lyrics
A poem by Malcolm Guite used with permission
Begin the song exactly where you are,
Remain within the world of which you're made.
Call nothing common in the earth or air,
Begin the song exactly where you are.
Accept it all and let it be for good.
Start with the very breath you breathe in now,
This moment's pulse, this rhythm in your blood
Accept it all and let it be for good.
And listen to it, ringing soft and low.
Stay with the music, words will come in time.
Slow down your breathing. Keep it deep and slow.
And listen to it ringing deep and low.
Become an open singing bowl, whose chime
Is richness rising out of emptiness,
And timelessness resounding into time.
Become an open singing bowl.
And when the heart is full of quietness
Begin the song exactly where you are.
