To life and life alone

This world is not yours .

Neither is this world mine .

This world is yours 

As long as have life in you .

This world is mine 

As long as I have life in me .

Once the life we have in us is gone 

So is the ain of life 

That is the life we owned 

Comes to an end.

Life is rich as long as you have it ,

Once gone it all remains 

For the ones who have life in them 

So this world neither 

belongs to you or me 

It belongs to life and life alone .
