Songs of Plum Village: Please Call Me by My True Names | Joe Holtaway

  • 0:33 - 0:37
    My joy is like spring, so warm,
  • 0:37 - 0:41
    it makes flowers bloom all over the earth.
  • 0:42 - 0:46
    My pain is like a river of tears,
  • 0:46 - 0:51
    so vast, it fills the four oceans.
  • 0:55 - 0:58
    Please call me by my true names
  • 0:59 - 1:05
    so I can hear all my cries and laughter at once,
  • 1:05 - 1:08
    so I can
  • 1:08 - 1:12
    hear that my joy and pain are one.
  • 1:14 - 1:18
    Please call me by my true names
  • 1:18 - 1:22
    so that I can wake up
  • 1:23 - 1:27
    and the door of my heart
  • 1:28 - 1:30
    can be left open.
  • 1:57 - 2:02
    My joy is like spring, so warm,
  • 2:02 - 2:06
    it makes flowers bloom all over the earth.
  • 2:07 - 2:11
    My pain is like a river of tears,
  • 2:11 - 2:15
    so vast, it fills the four oceans.
  • 2:20 - 2:23
    Please call me by my true names
  • 2:23 - 2:28
    so I can hear all my cries and laughter at one,
  • 2:29 - 2:32
    so I can hear
  • 2:33 - 2:37
    that my joy and pain are one.
  • 2:38 - 2:42
    Please call me by my true names
  • 2:42 - 2:46
    so that I can wake up.
  • 2:48 - 2:51
    And the door of my heart
  • 2:52 - 2:55
    can be left open.
  • 2:58 - 3:00
    The door of compassion.
