A Seed's a Star/Tree Medley [The Secret Life Of Plants]
We're a people black as is your night Born to spread Amma's eternal light Which since time began Has been to bring truth to every man
Our ancestors have since long ago Passed their wisdom down so we to know For here lies the key That will help unfold the mistery
A seed's a star A seed's a star's a seed A star's a seed A star's a seed's a star
In myself I do contain The elements of sun and rain First a seed with roots that swell I gradually burst through my shell Pushing down into the ground The root of me is homeward bound A trunk, a leaf and there I am A miracle of least by far
Tree - you are the longest living one we know the largest of all plants and still you grow
Tree - within your branches there's such history so much of what we're searching for to know
Every fifty years we celebrate Po Tolo, our star, as it rotates Though infinitely small It is still the heaviest of them all
