In life, there is a symmetry––
a balance that bespeaks a plan,
and he who treads a humble path
will find in him a peaceful man.

Look up; the leaves adorn the trees,
then fall to earth beneath your feet.
Look down; each stone could grace a pillar
or be crushed into concrete.

True harmony is always found
within the singing of a song.
The road will show you where it leads,
and if the way is short or long.
