The light of good people.
The light of good people shines on
Long after their own has declined
The fire in their eyes that once shone
Still burns in the ones left behind
In the eyes of their loved ones
The eyes of their friends
The eyes of each daughter and son
And is passed down again
To those that come after
The light of good people shines on
The light of good people shines on
Though gone now their breath and their beats
It resonates still like sweet music
In the fortunate hearts that it reached
And just as the moon
Transfers to earth
The benevolent rays of the sun
Likewise their own
Goes one to another
The light of good people shines on
The light of good people shines on
Though their bones rest now under the grass
Their flame cannot be extinguished
By the winds or the shadows that pass
All the gold that is found
In this ocean of life
From their sacred rivers did come
Forever enriching
Endlessly giving
The light of good people shines on.
Peace and Love
