A Celebration of Life
We can find Hope in new paths
NIKKI BOY
He came here from far to the east
Noble birth lit his way,
Sprung from the Mon he climbed the plateau
Mount Kailash from its mysteries and magic he came.
To this spiritual lad known as Arhat (Ar het)
Mankind his mission became
A fire was lit, his spirit made fit
The alchemist of Meru, he met his gaze.
Both Emperors and Kings sought his dreams,
his council helped Light their way
He said,The Dharma you seek, in meditation deep
On this path you'll find your way.
This enchanting lad upon Satan he came
He asked him, with love, wont you come out and play,
Lets run with the wind, you can give up on sin
but Satan he laughed and turned away
(Chorus)
Run me Laddie, run my boy,
This child of love, this child of joy
You stand with the broken, you stand with the lost
Your smile helps light their way, Nikki Boy lights their way.
Abram had visions at war with his faith,
Idol Maker his fathers trade
Arhat Stood by him and with his bright grin,
Said Father Abraham let the true 1 light your way.
They meditated all day, until the moon met their gaze,
Abraham saw his path, his enlightenment ablaze
Born that day, many nations he raised
Mankind's song sounded the coming of days.
Moses he struggled and lost his way
His destiny weighed heavy each day,
Arhat pointed on high, and they climbed
Sinai
Moses received God's word on that day
This lad, this sage, spoke of The Ingratitude of Man
The 4 noble truths and The Eightfold Path,
Moses looked upon him, and finally understood his sin
On Mount Nebo Moses ended his days.
(Chorus)
Run me laddie, run my boy
You touch mankind with your zen like joy
Bring mankind to know love and good faith
They will laugh and sing your praise,
Nikki Boy will light your way
Ahasverus, The cobbler, doomed to wander
cursed till the end of days,
Arhats vision for him, learn from where you've been
In redemption through dharma your salvation may lay
Through centuries of travel to The west he's come,
He's found Mankind to be sick, decay and disease in its grip
in visions to the powerful, came apocalyptic sorrows
ignorance and greed now, and nothing tomorrow
In dreams he met with them all, in a great hall
He asked them with love, wont you come out and play
We can run with the wind, you can give up on sin,
But like Satan of old, they laughed and turned away.
To Nikki Boy it seems clear, Humanity's in fear
Far from the Dharma, Mankind seems lost,
But With a smile and a wink, he knows joy and sorrow Are linked,
in dharma a new path will light our way.
his love will guide our way.
(Chorus)
Run me laddie, run my boy
your gift to mankind, is a karma of joy
Bring mankind to know love and good faith
We will laugh and sing your praise,
Nikki Boy will light our way...
(Chorus)
Run me Laddie, run my boy,
This child of love, this child of joy
you've gone to the angels, on their wings you now play
Yet Your smile still lights our way, Nikki Boy still lights our way.
(Chorus)
Run me Laddie, run my boy,
This child of love, this child of joy
you've gone to the angels, on their wings you now play
Yet Your smile still lights our way, Nikki Boy still lights our way.
