Happy Nowruz

Happy Nowruz, the Persian New Year-

Welcome to Nowruz
A new beginning
A fresh awakening
To the joy of living,
The beauty of nature,
A cascade of colours,
Flowers, trees and grass.

The world awakens
From winter sleep
Making fresh the creation
New growth and life.
Water, wind and light
Infusing harmony
To all around

Lets celebrate
The Lord of Wisdom
The giver of life,
Love, peace and joy.
Sing happy songs
Of festive mood
With those we love

Let nature heal us
Her colours feed us
The sun shall warm us
And give us hope.
In this fair existence
Wherein we wander
Eternal travellers
That learn anew.
