I know a small one in English that is complete truth for me (sings):
'Tis a gift to be simple, 'tis a gift to be free,
'Tis a gift to come down where we ought to be
And when we find ourselves in the place just right,
We will be in a valley of love and delight.
And really, simplicity is the wealthier truth. I just love it. That's a song that nourishes, because I have discovered that simplicity it makes you so rich. To eat a mango from an organic tree from your house, it's a pleasure (laughs). Yeah, or to have a wonderful time with your children working at home that's wealth! The rest are things. No more than that.
