Imagine a text so sacred
In verses by ancient lamas
It's chanting can cleanse your soul
And even change your karma
The tones they used were clear and strong
In baritones they took from God
And the mountains shook with people crying Lama
Dalai Lama, Dalai Lama
Confucian armies tore
Scattered sages to the fore
The crying eyes of Rama
Countin' bodies of simple farmers
A trickle soon became a flood
Despite the cries for seas of blood
His power and his presence would never harm you
Dalai Lama, Dalai lama
Dig the lyrics...
...not much future in that melody.
