Across the Universe
Across the Universe is probably one of the most beautiful songs ever made. I always feel happy and relaxed when I hear it.
Jai gura deva om translates roughly from Sankrit as hail to the divine guru, or teacher, who would help a soul transcend the physical confines and pains of samsara or daily life for enlightenment. Om is a the mystical syllable intoned by Hindu Brahmin, Buddhist monks, and yoga enthusists in an effort to connect with the life energy flowing through the universe. Om is the cosmic sound of that energy flowing across the universe.
Words are flying out like
endless rain into a paper cup
They slither while they pass
They slip away across the universe
Pools of sorrow waves of joy
are drifting thorough my open mind
Possessing and caressing me
Jai guru deva om
Nothing's gonna change my world
Nothing's gonna change my world
Nothing's gonna change my world
Nothing's gonna change my world
Images of broken light which
dance before me like a million eyes
That call me on and on across the universe
Thoughts meander like a
restless wind inside a letter box
they tumble blindly as
they make their way across the universe
Jai guru deva om
Nothing's gonna change my world
Nothing's gonna change my world
Nothing's gonna change my world
Nothing's gonna change my world
Sounds of laughter shades of life
are ringing through my open ears
exciting and inviting me
Limitless undying love which
shines around me like a million suns
It calls me on and on across the universe
Jai guru deva om
Nothing's gonna change my world
Nothing's gonna change my world
Nothing's gonna change my world
Nothing's gonna change my world
Jai guru deva
Jai guru deva
