Shine on me, shine on me, shine on me

​

On a faraway morning in this land of enchantment where

The rice is at harvest, the threshing has begun

And the grains I am holding up to the gleaming sun

Are like all of sweet days I have fully lived

​

Chorus:

Shine on me Shine on me

Shine on me Shine on me

Shine on me Shine on me Shine on me

​

In a jasmine evening inside the temple walls

The candles are burning in front of the holy shrines

And the incense rising into the coming night

And my spirit is flying upward to the stars

​

Chorus
