Alan Watts
Sound of The Waves
There's a myth
There is in the beginning the divine bird which lays the egg of the world
And the egg splits
Then the upper is the heaven
And the lower is the earth
So, when
The worlds are manifested
The Lord breathing out
Says “hung”
And when the worlds are withdrawn the breath comes back

Sound of the waves
Sound of the waves
Sound of the waves
Sound of the waves
Sound of the waves

But if you say hung-sa, hung-sah, hungsah-hung
It becomes sah-hung
Sah
Sah
A hung
That means
Sah means that
The truth
A hung, I am
I am that
Imagine
When we get
To the final moment in which the world is blown up
Imagine the count down
This is the end
Somebody's pushed a button
Eight, seven, six, five, four three, two, one

[Chorus]
Sound of the waves
Sound of the waves
Sound of the waves
Sound of the waves
Sound of the waves
Sound of the waves
Sound of the waves
Sound of the waves
What are you listening to?
Sound of the waves

And you can sit and listen to the little waves on the seashore
Now you'll get back here into this kind of thinking and you're hearing the ocean of the universe going
And that's your breathing too
It's all one rhythm
So, it may be that every star was once a planet populated by intelligent people
Who found out about the fundamental energy of the universe
And blew themselves up
And as they blew up, they scattered all kinds of stuff out which became little planet
[Laughs]
Which in a long time
Life started all over again
The sound of the waves
The sound of the waves
The sound of the waves
The sound of the waves
What are you listening to?
The sound of the waves
The sound of the waves
The sound of the waves

Sound of the waves
Sound of the waves
What are you listening to?
Sound of the waves
Sound of the waves
Sound of the waves
