Unbroken circle
UNBROKEN CIRCLE
If death is the end
Why does the song continue?
And voices fill the sweet air
And the family circle, remembers
Mothers and fathers, brothers and sisters
Generation to generation
In an unbroken circle
If death is the end
Life never ends, but continues
Like a stream moving to the ocean
And so does the family
Each generation connected
To the one before
In an unbroken circle
Time does pass
wisdom passed on
In an unbroken circle
For life never ends
Like an unbroken circle
