Listen closely to the whispers of the wind
As it speaks a story of love and pain
The tales of joy and sorrow it will send
As it carries stories from the sky to the plain

Hear the rustle of the leaves in the trees
As the sun shines down on all of us
Listen to the symphony of the birds and the bees
As they sing a song of joy and trust

The song of the river and the rolling of the tide
The melody of the ocean waves so wide
The whisper of the wind through the trees
As it carries stories of love and peace

Listen close to the rhythm of the rain
As it carves its way through the land
The beat of the thunder and the lightning's stain
As it dances across this vast terrain

Listen close to the secrets of the night
As the stars twinkle and the moon shines bright
The hoot of the owl and the call of the wolf
As they roam the forests looking for their own

Listen close to the magic of the world
To the wonders that surround us all
The love and laughter, the sorrow and the pain
The stories that the wind will explain

Listen closely and take it all in
Open your heart and let it begin
Let the music of life fill your soul
And listen close to the stories that the wind will unfold
