Drop a stone into the water
In a moment it is gone
But there are a hundred ripples
Circling on and on and on.
Say an unkind word this moment
In a moment it is gone
But there are a hundred ripples
Circling on and on and on
Say a word of joy and splendor
In a moment it is gone
But there are a hundred ripples
Circling on and on and on
