Everything Changes

The meaningless changes

The profound also changes
Ways of thinking change
Everything in the world changes

Over time the weather changes
The shepherd's herd changes
And just as everything else changes
That I change is not strange

The finest diamond's shine changes
As its brilliance wears off
The little birdie's nest changes
The lover's feelings change

The traveler's path changes
Even though painful
And just as everything else changes
That I change is not strange

Change, everything changes (x4)

The sun's path changes
to sustain the night
The plants change
to wear the green of spring

The fur of the wild beasts change
The hair of the wise ones change
And just as everything else changes
That I change is not strange

But my love doesn't change
No matter how far away I am
Nor the memory nor the pain
of my place and of my people

That which changed yesterday
Will have to change tomorrow
Just as I change
In this faraway land

Change, everything changes (x4)

But my love doesn't change
No matter how far away I am
Nor the memory nor the pain
of my place and of my people

That which changed yesterday
Will have to change tomorrow
Just as I change
In this faraway land

Change, everything changes
