about

This song is based on the Buddhist practice of the same name, whereby you send wishes for happiness, health, safety and peace to yourself and then others in ever-widening circles of love. Sing this song with your children in the morning to set the intention for the day! Our love is powerful!

lyrics

CHORUS
May I be happy, may I be well
May I be safe and sound
May I be peaceful, may I be at ease
With love in my heart and all around
May you be happy, may you be well
May you be safe and sound
May you be peaceful, may you be at ease
With love in your heart and all around

VERSE 1
You can sing your love
You can dance your love
You can play your love
Today, my love
You can laugh your love
You can cry your love
You can walk your love
And you can fly your love
All around

CHORUS
May I be happy, may I be well
May I be safe and sound
May I be peaceful, may I be at ease
With love in my heart and all around
May you be happy, may you be well
May you be safe and sound
May you be peaceful, may you be at ease
With love in your heart and all around

VERSE 2
You can sit with your love
You can breathe with your love
You can listen to your love
It's in your heart, my love
You can share your love
You can shine your love
You can be your love
And you can spread your love
All around

CHORUS
May we be happy, may we be well
May we be safe and sound
May we be peaceful, may we be at ease
With love in our hearts and all around
May we be happy, may we be well
May we be safe and sound
May we be peaceful, may we be at ease
With love in our hearts and all around


“You,
as much
as anybody
in the entire
universe,
deserve
your love
and affection.”
~ The Buddha

“Spread love
everywhere you go.
Let no one ever come
to you without
leaving happier.”
~ Mother Theresa

“There are three ways
to ultimate success:
The first way is to be kind.
The second way is to be kind.
The third way is to be kind.”
~ Mr. Rogers
