The Happy Prince has looked over the wall of his garden.

Siddhartha Gautama has left his home

wealth and security
exist in a reality of poverty
we are lost and wandering through that dual reality
we cannot deny the existence of one nor the other

so we go on a quest
for our clan's regions
For there is enough for all of us.

O, I am come to the low country
Och on, och on, och rie!
Without a penny in my purse
To buy a meal for me

One time I had a hundred sheep
Och on, och on, och rie!
Skippin' on yon narrow creek
And growin' wool for me
