THE
TEACHING OF LOVE
Is
it really important for you
which
religion someone might follow?
For
if they decide what to do,
there
are things that they should know...
Many
religions appear to be different from the other,
but
all of them claim to be the only right one:
Though
we should treat everyone as sister or brother,
seeing
more could get many problems gone
I
wish you could open your eyes and see,
there
is so much that religions have in common
-
maybe some time in the future we will be free,
understanding
that all religions really are one
We
should treat each other like family,
this
is how it really should be
-
it is not the differences that I'm thinking of,
but
what is in common - the teaching of love
We
shouldn't kill each other or fight,
because
of what we believe in:
We
just need to stick to what is right,
understanding
each other is a good way to begin
Not
everything that is different is wrong,
sometimes
it is simply another kind of way
-
tolerating what's different shows you're strong,
I
believe that it is the teachings in common that should stay
I
wish you could open your eyes and see,
there
is so much that religions have in common
-
maybe some time in the future we will be free,
understanding
that all religions really are one
We
should treat each other like family,
this
is how it really should be
-
it is not the differences that I'm thinking of,
but
what is in common - the teaching of love
Just
try to understand the way others go,
not
convincing or trying to change what they believe:
Trying
to see that the different forms will show,
that
by accepting there is much we can achieve
I

BECAUSE
WE'RE ONE
Why
do you keep fighting,
when
you really should try to understand?
For
others your way should be lighting,
even
if they are coming from another land
If
the way you go is really right,
why
then do you need to fight?
Aren't
the arguments convincing enough?
Do
you really need to be so rough?
I
wish you could find a way to see,
the
difference is not as big as it seems to be:
It
is just some details you are fighting for,
that
shouldn't be counting so much more
There
is nothing you need to fight about
-
instead find out what is in common,
because
I don't really have a doubt:
In
reality humanity should be one
No
matter what needs to be done,
we
should try to get the troubles gone
-
because we're one
Don't
you see the tears of pain,
that
are cried every single day?
Is
this the kind of memory you want to remain?
Why
does it have to be this way?
Each
time I have to explain,
I
can feel it all over again:
Only
living what we believe in
would
be enough to show how to begin
I
wish you could find a way to see,
the
difference is not as big as it seems to be:
It
is just some details you are fighting for,
that
shouldn't be counting so much more
There
is nothing you need to fight about
-
instead find out what is in common,
because
I don't really have a doubt:
In
reality humanity should be one
No
matter what needs to be done,
we
should try to get the troubles gone
-
because we're one
Find
out what is really true,
because
the difference only lies in you:
Stick
to what you should be thinking of
-
the most important teaching - the one of love
I
wish you could find a way to see,
the
difference is not as big as it seems to be:
it
is just some details you are fighting for,
that
shouldn't be counting so much more
There
is nothing you need to fight about
-
instead find out what is in common,
because
I don't really have a doubt:
In
reality humanity should be one
No
matter what needs to be done,
we
should try to get the troubles gone
-
because we're one
