From Spirit Rock to Abhayagiri
On through the heartland
Scent of tamarack and alder
Almost to Oregon
Turning our wheels for the dharma
We just keep on cycling,
'cuz we all got our karma
Monks in saffron robes at the pit stops
Intoning wisdom
On what is a pilgrim
And what is not
Turning our wheels for the dharma
We just keep on cycling,
'cuz we all got our karma
What is the point of this journey?
--Besides that I got damage
And you got a bad knee--
What is the point of this journey?
With the wheels spins the mind
Obsessively
What is the point of this journey?
--Besides that the destination
isn't what I expected it to be--
Is the point to get to the top of that hill?
'Cuz if the upslopes don't satisfy you
Babe then nothin' will
Turning our wheels for the dharma
We just keep on cycling,
there's no end to our karma |
