The English version of the french poem Tout le monde cherche

Everyone is Searching

 
They’re searching for stones, for silver and gold
They feel the urge to discover a treasure to hold
They’re searching everywhere their eyes behold
Wasting their will, their time, they’re getting old.
 
Sometimes they search archives for a document
Or they excavate historic sites for a monument
Finding the truth that’s lost in time, they meant -
While it’s hidden in their heart, waiting for assent
 
Our forefathers’ old legends, epics and story
Show us what’s precious, so we won’t feel sorry
It may seem as though it’s lost between earth and sky
But it’s alive, that’s what those rare elders lived by.
 
We think we could find our souls searching outside
While the highest and holiest is only found inside
There is a message conveyed through music and song
If we put our faith and our heart where they belong
 
The time we have should be put to good use
To get to know ourselves, if we so choose
To unite our strength, our love and our will
While they are tied to our health. to our body still.
