Call To The Real Beloved
O Beloved, do You think that I can forget You at all?
Help me realise The Love which attracts You by call.
You are the only one that I have always longed for!
Help me please get across to the land of Your Shore.
Separation is a mighty ocean of many burning desires
Help me cross over and not be consumed by their fires.
Take me by the hand if necessary don't let me go astray
Help me get to that place where I'll be with You all day.
Life is really very short there is not all that much time
Help me find You without committing any more crime.
You are so compassionate towards us and can wipe our slate clean
Help me at least get a glimpse of You like all the others have seen.
We are all Thy children and often call to You when in need
Help us all ask for that which will bring You closer indeed.
Thy Divine Love and Grace awakens Your presence in our heart
Help us all experience that Love where we are never really apart.
All the people of this world are searching everywhere for love
Help them realise and achieve that which is a gift from above.
Once everyone gets a taste of It they will then know for sure!
Help us so that we can find what is really worth looking for.

Love In Separation 1 - 5
I
Today my heart is beating a sorrowful tune
and I don’t really know if it will end soon.
Since your departure all seems to be amiss
a pale reflection of that once heavenly bliss.
I have been left stranded on an alien shore
to fend for myself groping near your door.
The aftertaste of delight which our union once exuded
lingers on now in memory and feels like I was deluded.
Something doesn’t seem to be quite the same
even though I remember and repeat your name.
Your presence was what made the difference then
such a tangible feeling: will you not come again?
I can only endeavour to lure you back once more
so please don’t any of my genuine efforts ignore.
II
I look for you everywhere that I happen to go
but where you’re to be found I’d like to know.
Some say you’re in the heart and to look within
while others assert that you’re in the next of kin.
Life is really a situation of relationships with you
and knowledge of the ways of love gets us through.
If we come across difficulties and obstacles by love they’re resolved
which engenders compassion and understanding as it gets involved.
There are many people in the world who look in all the wrong places
searching for the same thing here in the available surrounding spaces.
Hoping that what they’ll find is what their heart most desires
and to fulfil this craving their mind with their heart conspires.
Our inner being or soul though is the silent witness observing all
and expresses itself as our higher conscience when we heed its call.
III
To suffer in the agony of a lover’s separation we learn
that being away from the Beloved makes the heart burn.
It is even worse when the Beloved has gone away not saying why
and the lover has been left alone in the throes of love high and dry.
The heart cannot bear the pain of love in separation
and the mind seeks to achieve a suitable reconciliation.
When the power of love rules the heart mind hastens to obey
and doesn’t need any other reason to cause unwanted delay.
If all the lover’s efforts to a reunion only end in despair
then it may be better to let the matter rest awhile there.
True love cannot be really denied except at a great personal cost
and in desperation we seldom realise the value of what’s been lost.
There is a saying that: ‘love will always find a way’
and that a heart full of love over the mind holds sway.
IV
As I was never given a reason why you suddenly left
I can only assume that there isn’t one and love is bereft.
The heart has its own reasons which the mind can’t fathom
so the mind depends on the heart for matters it can’t fathom.
Where the Beloved goes there the lovers also have to follow
because love is the magnet that draws them all nigh to go.
When the fragrance of love is in the air and lovers imbibe its scent
the intoxicating effect is a strong potion which on the heart is bent.
Man’s feeble mind relies more on the heart when the matter of love is concerned
but if the mind dominates and rationalises through the intellect love is adjourned.
If the mind of the lover is centred in the heart where the play of love is unfolding
it will experience anguish and misery when the Beloved anything is withholding.
All true lovers will always seek the company and well-being of their beloved
and are never satisfied with remaining at a distance if love is being uncovered.
V
Whose fault is it may I enquire if anyone falls irresistably in love
and the processes of love in separation overwhelm as from above?
What can one really do but follow wherever their heart leads
and undergo the agony in seeing that love is not displeased.
In seeking the pleasure of the Beloved one’s life becomes fulfilled
which otherwise would remain barren like a desolate land untilled.
When the Beloved sows the seeds of love in the fertile soil of one’s heart
all that was in there when that time comes must be sublimated or depart.
The arrows of love seek to pierce their target which is the heart of the lover
and the Beloved is the one drawing the bow with intent to kill we discover.
To die for love is much better than to live without we’ve heard often before
and those who lose their life in the cause of the Beloved will live forevermore.
When the heart is purified and pure love is awakened by the Beloved’s grace
any who are the recipients thereof realise that love in separation has its place.

If You Were Mine
I been waiting here for so long
Counting all the holes in my shoes
Youve been singing such a different song
I aint gonna punch you in the eye
Just cause you tell a crazy lie
Even so . . .
I knew how you would go . . .
Im always the last to know youre trying to love me too
Youve been wasting so much time away
Never seem to get through to you
Youve been lazy now its time to pay
Whos gonna be the one to say whos gonna make the move today
I wont stand by . . .
Asking you questions why . . .
Not while you say youre too shy to look me in the eye . . .
If you were mine
Id never need to wipe the smile from my face
It aint no crime
What wed achieve if we stayed in this place
You said once I had a hold on you
And I believed you first time around
But now you dont know what youre trying to do
So when you turn around and realise
Im not around to dry your eyes
Then youll know . . .
Its crazy to let me go . . .
Youre always the last to know
Im trying to love you too . . .
If you were mine
Id never need to wipe the smile from my face
It aint no crime
What wed achieve if we stayed in this place
If you kept your promise baby
Everything would stay the same
But I cant shake the feeling youre searching maybe
For another love to blame
If you were mine
Id never need to wipe the smile from my face
It aint no crime
What wed achieve if we stayed in this place

Within You Without You
We were talking-about the space between us all
And the people-who hide themselves behind a wall of illusion
Never glimpse the truth-then it's far too late-when they pass away.
We were talking-about the love we all could share-when we find it
To try our best to hold it there-with our love
With our love-we could save the world-if they only knew.
Try to realise it's all within yourself
No-one else can make you change
And to see you're really only very small,
And life flows within you and without you.
We were talking-about the love that's gone so cold and the people,
Who gain the world and lose their soul-
They don't know-they can't see-are you one of them?
When you've seen beyond yourself-then you may find, peace of mind,
Is waiting there-
And the time will come when you see
We're all one, and life flows on within you and without you.

Sweet Love
Show me it river that's so deep
Show me a mountain so high
I'll show you love that'll last forever
Flying high so high
Show me a place where dream are for dreamers
And all the things you wish come true
I'd wish the world had all happy people
The there'd be no more wishing to do
Oh sweet love
Oh well well sweet sweet love
Oh woo hoo sweet love
Sweet love that comes through the age
Reach out and touch my soul
Give my life so much meaning
And everyone a heart of gold
Oh sweet love
Hh love sweet love
Oh woo hoo sweet love
I know you're searching
I know you're searching for love and peace and understanding
And I know it's been hard trying to find your way.
But you've got to keep on searching harder day by day
Cos this love, love the only way
Oh sweet love
Oh love sweet sweet love
Oh woo hoo sweet love
When you're down and out and you can't see your way
Just call on love

Like Every Time Before
If you'd only realise
I'd been happy with you once before
Can't you let it be the same and more
Without you fightin' me, fightin' me
If you could only look into my eyes
Then you would see the truth within them lies
That I am trying hard to bring us back together
You try so hard to complicate our love
But underneath it all it's pride my love
That's hurting us and keeping us apart
If you'd only realise
I'd been happy with you once before
Can't you let it be the same and more
Without you fightin' me, fightin' me
break
If you'd only realise
I'd been happy with you once before
Can't you let it be the same and more
Without you fightin' me, fightin' me
I start to wonder if it's worth it all
But then I look at you and start to fall
In love again like every time before
Umm in love again like every time before
Oh in love again like every time before

Love will always find the way
Feelings are the hardest words to say
Oh call me, call me
Baby, always call your name
I would never feel this way again
Oh call me, call me
There is love enough, enough for two
There will never he another you
How can you mend a broken heart
Oh he said goodbye without a tear
Through a million souls, a million fears
Thats no way to say goodbye
*call me, call me
Tell me what you feel
My love never dies

You light up my life

You swore wed never break apart
Oh call me, call me
Oh hold on tight and dont let go

The Wonder Of It All
In the time it takes for us to blink our eyes
somebody is born and someone else dies.
The way of the world is through life and death
all that exists is nourished by food and breath.
In just a fleeting moment so much goes on
it’s a wonder for our mind to reflect upon.
Yet all that ever happens has a beginning and end
in the vastness of time and space it has to contend.
What is life about and our purpose on this world here?
Is it not to grow and expand, to realise something dear?
We all have basic desires to achieve one thing or another
a sort of instinct or legacy through our father and mother.
In self knowledge and expression we all reveal the way forward
one step at a time or in leaps and bounds we come closer toward
where this impulse of life leads us or directs each one to go
while the emphasis is always to learn, live, love and to grow.
In life we all have to face situations by which we gain or lose
yet it depends so much on our ability and freedom to choose.
If we see beyond our present circumstances it’s a positive sign
and experience may prove that there was only an imaginary line.
In relationships there are certain things that we all come to know
whatever doesn’t appear on the surface, otherwise hard to show.
To cultivate or develop the best in ourselves and others is a worthy ideal
though many people have a tendency for the false instead of what is real.
There are so many aspects of life we take for granted or even miss their point
in our daily struggle for survival whoever we are or find ourselves at this joint.
It takes much discriminative knowledge based on experience to come out ahead
at the end of each day be able to relax or rest and even sleep soundly in our bed.
We’re all prone to the malady of living wherever we may happen to be
as long as we don’t make it harder for ourselves or others in being free.
And in seeking the right solutions to those problems or dilemmas that we face
we should realise them to be relative not just to one particular time and place.

Its Over
(jimmie rodgers)
If time were not a moving thing
And I could make it stay
This love we shared
Would always be
Thered be no coming day
No morning light above
To make me realise our love
Is over
And now you walk away from me
And theres no place to put my hand
Except to shade my eyes
Against the sun that comes to warm the land
I watch you walk away somehow
I have to let you go now
Its over
Its too late to tell you how I feel
Our love was real
And yet, there are so many times
That people have to love and then forget
Though there might have been a way
I have to force myself to say
Its over
And so I walk away and turn my collar to the wind
I walk along in silence trying not to think at all
I put my feet before me
Walk the silent street before me
Its over
If time were not a moving thing
And I could make it stay
This love we shared would always be
Thered be no coming day
No morning light above
To make me realise our love
Is over
Its over
Its over
Its over

Any Kind Of Love
Well if youre ever in a tight spot,
And all the things around you are gettin hot,
Come to me and I can cool you off.
And if you ever get yourself in a jam,
And if you ever feel you need to find a man
Call my number and, darling, you found one
But I know now, it can never work out
The way I really wished that it would.
But a second-hand love is better than no love at all
And the walls get a little closer,
And my throat gets a little tighter when
I say to you that a second-hand love from you is better than no love at all
Any kind of love from you is better than no love at all
If you got the feeling it aint right tonight
And if the fire at home aint as hot as you like
Ive got a fire thats burning for you.
And if you ever feel you need to get away
To get away from the rest of your life,
Ill come a-runnin and show you the world.

God’s Eternal Presence
Friend you can see the hand of God, all across this earth men trod.
The presence of God is everywhere, even in lives who do not care.
The Lord is omnipresent friend; a presence man can’t comprehend.
Friend, even in this land of ours, His presence extends to the stars.
And men are blessed in this place, with God’s overwhelming Grace.
This country is blessed abundantly, by The God that man can’t see.
Friend God’s love for us will endure, in this land from shore to shore,
That is, for those men in this life, who’ve come to know Jesus Christ.
But there are men on another path, heading for God’s Eternal Wrath.
He is also a God of Justice friend, and He shall put all evil to an end.
As vengeance belongs to The Lord; and His judgment will be poured.
That’s when every eye shall see, Jesus Christ is The Lord of Eternity.
But His Mercy God extends to all, all under the curse of Adam’s fall.
A mercy to us, so underserved, for the sinfulness that we’ve served.
The death that we’re deserving of, Christ justified through His Love.
The Love of His Son Jesus Christ, who on the cross paid that price.
The Love of God is second to none, for He sent to us His Only Son,
Christ who died a death on a cross, a sinless lamb slain for the lost.
God’s gift to men sent from above, Gracious Mercy wrapped in Love.
And through the death of Jesus Christ, all men can gain Eternal Life.

Its Here
Written by ricki & kim wilde
Ive been looking all around the world
To see what I could find
Just a lot of broken promises
And people left behind
Oh and the - pain of being lonely
Is what everybody fears
Yeah, it took a lot of time for me to realise
Its here, looking me in the eye
Its here, here all the time
Its here, Ive always tried to find a way to go
But now I know
Its here
You can spend your life competing
In a world that talks too loud
You can lose your own direction
Getting lost among the crowd
Confusion - is it any wonder
That the road aheads not clear
Well you can try too hard to find it
Now I realise
Its here, looking me in the eye
Its here, here all the time
Its here, Ive always tried to find a way to go

I Love All Of Me
Im a shy girl, my mother calls me flatchest,
Im a heavy boy, my father calls me a fathead,
Im a small guy, my friends call me an armrest,
Im a big girl, the boys call me a waterbed.
I love all of me, I love all of me,
I love all of me, I just wanna be.
Im a yellow girl, you choose to call me slanted eyes,
Im a white boy who fights for his roots and ties,
Im a red woman who cries over her childs hunger,
Im a black man whos come to terms with his anger.
I love all of me, I love all of me,
I love all of me, I just wanna be.
Im a nomad who writes his words in sand,
Im an aborigine who wishes to save his clan,
Im all people who cry for their land,
People of the world walking hand in hand.
I love all of me,
(I love all - love me)
I love all of me,
(I love all - love me)
I love all of us,
(I love all - love me)
We just wanna be.
Live and let live, live and let live,
Live and let live, live and let live
Phew, the cross we carry is so heavy.
I wanna sit down for a second. do you mind?
Not lie down, just sit down,
Not too long, just so long.
Hey! I got an I dare, cant we just burn the crosses instead of people?
I happen to think thats healthy, and its not blasphemy.
So brush your wings, shine your rings,
And we can sing.
Are you ready?
I love all of me,
(I love all - love me)
I love all of me,
(I love all - love me)
I love all of us,
(I love all - love me)
We just wanna be.
Once more!
I love all of me,
(I love all - love me)
I love all of me,
(I love all - love me)
I love all of us,
(I love all - love me)
We just wanna be.

Give Love to the children Children need love everyday
Give love to the children Guide them on their way
Love's like a burning flame consumes all that stands in the way
Love is the only power on earth to take all the hatred away
GIVE LOVE TO THE CHILDREN set the children free
To make their own decisions then they will clearly see
Love is the sun the moon and the stars love is a golden ring
Love is the one thing the whole world desires be it beggar or king
GIVE LOVE TO THE CHILDREN youth has not long to stay
Love is a long term investment the best you will find any day
Love like the rising sun takes all the darkness away
Our children will tell their children and their childrens children will say
Give love to the children they are our crock of gold
and if perchance they ever stray they will come back to the fold
Give love to the children the children of today
Give love to the children and love will come to stay.

The Love Eternity
You can't buy talents,
You can't buy experience,
And you can't buy love;
Because love is not for sale.
Come closer to me to get some feelings,
The love eternity is what i share;
Like the touch of light ot push you up.
We've got work to do on this love,
The natural feelings of love to motivate you at all times;
So, don't bury your thoughts.
You are always welcome,
Because you are the lady of my heart;
All i need is the air that i breath and to love you.
I really don't learn like a bull and forget like a beast,
But my life is to love you.
Bring your magic room to me my lover,
For you are always welcome whenever you need me;
And love will always find a way.
Touch my heart and feel my heart beat,
Fill it up with your saturated love;
For true love crowns everything when you are in the mood.
You are my delight in the midst of the millions,
And you are tantalizing to my heart;
For i always do miss you in my loneliness.

Take Time
You can have it if you really want
You can grasp it if you have the thought
Feel your power that is deep within
Are you ready ?
On your mark begin
We should take time out to really love
We should find out who we really are
We should take time out to really love
Do you feel your life's a big mistake ?
Don't you hate the way it's all so fake ?
All I wanna do is just be real
And get off of the spinning wheel
All they sell us is a pack of lies
And we're buying one in every size
Can't you see it in the children's eyes ?
It's about to get wild
We should take time out to really love
We should find out who we really are
We should take time out to really love
Ha yeah

We should find out who we really are
We should take time out to really love

You can have it any way you want it

Sublime Request
Oh beloved Avatar Meher Baba Ki Jai
awaken Yourself in our hearts and stay.
Guide us beyond the opposites of duality to Thy light
irrespective of the time being either in the day or night.
It may seem this request is out of sheer vanity
though perhaps it's because of our fragile sanity.
But then You know better than anyone else does
so please come around and clear up all the fuzz.
There should be room enough in our hearts to house Thee
which is the one place out of all where You should really be.
If crowded with too many desires to find a comfortable place there
please show us how to get rid of them and take a very special care
to instill that one desire and longing for God which is necessary
for us all to realise and attain the goal of life throughout eternity.
All the sacred scriptures of the world proclaim the One Eternal Truth,
being man's duty to realise his unity with God and dependence in sooth.

Carryin' The Torch
Did I hear you say you wished that you could leave her?
Has some foolish disagreement made you blind ?
If you traveled round this world, you wouldn't find another girl
To hold the candle to the guy you left behind.
And boy, she's carrying the torch for you
Though solid tears may fall, you never know.
But on the day that you discover how much you really love her
You'll find her love has never lost its glow.
She believed ya when you pledged her your devotion
When she watched you as you walked right out the door.
After all that she's been through tonight she still believes in you
As she stands there all alone upon the shore.
And boy, she's carrying the torch for you,
Though her heart may break, you never know.
But on the day that you discover how much you really love her
You'll find her love has never lost its glow.
You know, I still remember the first time I ever saw her.
You see, I was coming home from overseas,
And well, she was just standing there as the ship was comin' in.
Well, she really stood out from the crowd, I can tell you that.
And the golden light of dawn was gleaming in her eyes.
Well, there's some folks that call her proud,
And there's some folks that call her wild,
And there's some that even go so far as to call her free,
And then there's some ...
Well they just call her the Statue of Liberty!
And boy she's carrying the torch for you
Thank you!
Her love light shines for all this world to see.
Thank you very much!
And on that day
Thank you!
You'll find a way to love her
She wants you just to know you're always free.
