Hoist The Sails!



Hoist! Hoist the sails!
Landmarks over the ocean’s heart
We’re approaching the oasis, Hoist the sails!
This is the part where we lend masks
Hide! Hide your hearts; toss them in the watery mazes
We’re approaching the oasis.

Hoist the sails!
From our zones of comfort we depart
This is where the sea ghost grazes
Embraces the end of the southern air
And relishes the start of the northern breeze
Hoist! Here skies freeze and clouds are devised
With ease, please hide your face
Replace your heart with vacant space,
To let your spirit float freely over this sacred whirlpool
Pull the ropes towards the floor
Push your robes outwards your flaws
Let the ocean see and drown them

Hoist the Sails we’re approaching the oasis
Find a place to hide
Send the anchor below to the forgotten sands
Root this ship, this was once a tree
A wise tree with dreams, Hoist the sails and cease
Seize the moment and dive in, but not in this divine sea
Find a place to hide please,

The captain speaks;
Forget what think you are,
You’re one with the stars
The sky is a reflection of the earth
The stars multiply with the rate of birth
Everyday children are born and at night new stars are borne
They’re not that far, through your eyes in the ocean and see
You will see horses, lions and shells, octopuses and Krishna
You also are there,

Hoist the sails
We’re approaching the oasis
Let us reconnect the constellations
Converse with the universe because we’re all stars
Hoist the sails; forget what you think you are
I’m the captain; and you’re the Star!
Simply the way you are.
The best place to hide is inside you.
