At the top of the mountain I spoke to the sun.
It gave me a message for everyone.
Each night I am old, and each day I am new,
but I am here for each of you.
My rays are bright and orange and red,
and they belong on every head.
My warmth is love, strong and true,
feel it inside and know what to do.
Love one another and love yourself.
Take my sunlight off the shelf.
My light is your greatest toy,
go outside, proclaim your joy.
Help the others to be.
Be kind in your heart.
Let no one you see,
tear love apart.
And if you wish,
to be free like the dove,
be like the sun,
and share your love.
