Dalai Lama Song

[Martha Ann Brooks]

Having watched a documentary about His Holiness the 14th Dalai Lama, I was struck by his contagious happiness that seemed so prevelant throughout the film. I wanted to write a song that tried to capture the nature of his positive outlook on life and hope that others will feel some of that same joy when they listen to this song. No serious commentary on the woes of the world...just a happy little ditty that brought a smile to my face as I wrote it.

For those who may be offended by my use of a portion of his official title in my song, I sincerely apologize but recommend that you ask yourself "what would the Dalai Lama do ?". I'm willing to bet that he would laugh out loud or at the very least fight back a smile.
