Lyrics: Fetu Lele (Flying Star)
© 1999 Marshell Jones

I have come here
From a starry hearthside
To remind you
You are god

You are
Bright star
Shining
Lighting up nights
Enough to flood
The sky
With purple kisses of light
Moist
And your eyes
Rain with peace and flowers
Petals of pain
Give way to showers
I know
I am here
To be

Touching
Your light
Fingertip-lessly
In a zone called
Free
Floodgates fly
Latch
See?
See?
Sea patches of blue hue
You are womb
And divine
In me

I have come here
From the sunny side
Of galaxy
To
Remember
You
Are free
