The Blues Come Easy

THE BLUES COME EASY
CH
Oh the blues come easy
Yes the blues come easy to me
Don’t ask me to explain
Somehow the blues come easy to me
2x
This life’s a river of darkness
Anger and fear
Broken dreams and sadness
This life is a river of tears
And I can’t walk across the water
Lord knows I’ve tried
It might be deep and cold
I’ll have to swim to the other side
CH
You might say I’ve lived a life of comfort
You might say I’ve lived a life of ease
Still the blues come easy
The blues come easy to me
‘Cause everywhere I look around me
So much pain, so much sorrow I see
That the blues come easy
The blues come easy to me
CH
Oh my God He’s so big
You’d think he couldn’t hide from me
I know He lives in everyone
Still times I miss the forest for the trees
Oh God my Father
My Mother, my only friend
If I could be with you now
I know all my sorrows would end
CH
No power to speak. Or silence to keep.
No power to die. No power to live.
No power to surrender, my Soul to Thee
No power to find the way to be free
It is His Grace alone
That reveals the Way
May I walk in His Will from my darkness
Into His day
CH
And may the blues flow easy
May the blues flow easy from me
May I float in His Love
To the open arms of the Sea
Yes may the blues flow easy
May the blues flow easy from me
As I float in His Love
To the open arms of the Infinite Sea

I Am Thine
11:27
|

I AM THINE, IN MINE MYSELF, WAHE GURU
HUMEE HUM TOO HEE TOO, WAHE GURU
When we chant this, we are saying that “I”, this finite and limited being, belongs to “Thou”, the infinite, unlimited source of all being. And that by experiencing simultaneously the polarities of finite and infinite as One within me, I experience the Ecstasy of Inner Wisdom beyond words.
Yogi Bhajan: “There is no stronger affirmation on the planet...”
And then we multiply the impact of this affirmation by infinity with “WAHE GURU”
And then we echo affirmation in the plural: HUMI HUM TUMI TUM – which Yogi Bhajan translated as “We We We Thou Thou Thou”. Again multiplied by infinity: WAHE GURU
Yogi Bhajan:”... if that cannot awaken your soul, then you must have been dead yesterday...”

Kundalini Curled Up

KUNDALINI CURLED UP
Kundalini curled up
Down at the base of my spine
Cosy serpent on a warm rock
Feelin’ little lazy, well that’s just fine
‘Cause I’m ‘bouta start me in some breathing
Bring some fire down in that hole
Squeeze on off the Root Lock
Give her a little jolt, oh let’s see where she goes
Now I fell her start to rising
Aaww there’s that tingle in my spine
As she slithers up the Shushama
Stretching, yawning, startin’ to undwind
Oh now she’s feeling a little perky
Ah she’s slithering fast
Tearing through the Chakras
Pedal to the floor, full throttle on the gas
CH
Oh my Kundalini’s rising, she’s travelin’ fast
Oh my Kundalini’s rising, I just pray it will last
Now I’m holding on for dear life
To the top of my head
As the sky explodes inside me
Not sure if I’m alive of if I’m dead
Volcano of consciousness erupting
As I embrace the universe
Shooting through the tenth gate
As through the heavens I transverse
Now I’ve lost all perspective
Somewhere past Jupiter, or was that Mars?
Well the air’s pretty thing here
Out beyond the farthest star
As I skate round the rings of Saturn
And gaze back upon the earth
No need to sweat the small stuff
Little things like life, death and birth
CH
Oh my Kundalini’s rising, she’s travelin’ fast
Oh my Kundalini’s rising, I just pray it will last
Now the thrill is slowing fading
Though the Joy it still remains
As I settle down easy
Back through the layers from which I came
To find my Kundalini curled up, at the base of my spine
Cosy serpent back on that warm rock
Feelin’ little lazy... and that’s just fine ... yes that’s just fine ... and I’m feeling divine...

Life Embraced

LIFE EMBRACED
We bear the scars of life embraced
Scars our fingers gently trace
As we sit and wonder, what’s brought us here?
Could it be that Jupiter’s conjuncted with Mars
Up there in the tenth house looking down from the stars
Oh, from the heavens it must seem so clear
May our hands of love
May our hands of light
Touch and know that sweet delight
It’s that touch that draws us near
Must a price be paid for each embrace
A story be told from the scars that are made
Each time, time tears us apart
Is it carved in our palms, pictured in a crystal ball
Or do we just have to read the writing on the wall
There is no light without the dark
May our hearts of love
May our hearts of light
Beat with the joy of life’s sweet delight
And in that dance, may we draw near
I am Thou, Thou art me
Me art Thou, I am Thee
God and me, me and God, we are One
We are One in the light, One through the darkest night
My every cell sings, shouts with delight
Dancing, romancing with God I am One
God and me, me and God
God and we, we and God
You and me, me and you and God
We are One

Tarn Taran Singh Santa Fe, New Mexico
The thing is, I woke up one morning, not many years long ago, and discovered I was 70! How did that happen? I am grateful for this space to share the musical expression of my journey as a soul wrapped in this human form from then to now and beyond. These songs and mantras, and the collaboration with my musical friends, express the wonder and gratitude I have for the innumerable blessings of life ... more
