Distance yourself from the chaos of wants
In searching your soul you will realize how little you need
Sufficient for the day has been long forgotten
Trade the hideous, never-ending shriek of life's demands
Rest your weary mind from the distractions of plenty
As if more will bring you happiness and
Catching up with the crowd will bring you joy
Take only what you need
In life and leave the rest to the greedy crowd
Oh, if humans could only learn from the Sparrows
Nesting time is the only time we truly need to build a nest
