What I Want For Christmas



i want to know who i am
i want to know who i am
i am a beggar living on the alms
given to me from day to day
with both arms i seek refuge from door to door
where i can find a place to stay
to surrender the pleasures of the world
i rather seek the hidden treasure of the mind
like the birds i have come to realize
that by nature i exist and nothing is mine

i need not to live in the castle anymore
where i have so much responsibility
to be engage
to be enlighten as a sage
i want to be free
i want to be free
whatever relationships i cut ties with
be the reason i have come alone
to lift my soul and to return to the stars
in heaven be my rightful throne

i want to find peace
i want to find peace
this is what i dream
to go in search of the mountain in the forest
i will find the stream
where the fragrance of the flowers
will make this breath of mine pure
the words of wisdom that will come to my lips
will remain a gift to humanity
for any pain to endure

the garment to carry my faith
is sufficient to keep me awake
i will take the opportunity to carry my cross
before its too late
i want to see the light
i want to see the light
the one who has given me life
and intelligence to walk the earth
like the sun which moves across the sky
and to take my soul
from birth to birth
