The Music
Song: Humility
In the wild deserted mountains
I met a sage sitting on a cliff.
I asked him, “How can I find truth?”
He uttered but one word,
“Humility.”
And the vibrating sound of OM
filled all space
and flashed among the planets above.
I turned and I asked, “Where is the pathway?”
He spoke one word,
“Humility.”
And all the heavens and the earth
broke into musical notes
and I heard the voices of rocks
and of rivers and of trees.
And I asked, “What shall I study,
O sacred master?”
“Humility.”
And I beheld a fall of flowers
from the heavens like a heavy snow at night
and the earth gave off a sweet fragrance
and the very air whispered,
“Humility.”
