The Snow Leopard
Journey Within: Unveiling the Spiritual Odyssey in 'The Snow Leopard'
Lyrics
The way is to climb
The path forward involves overcoming challenges and obstacles.
The way is to lie still
Finding balance includes moments of stillness and patience.
And let the moon do
Allowing nature, represented by the moon, to have a transformative effect on oneself.
Its work on your body
The moon's influence works on the physical body in a profound way.
And then to rise
Rising above challenges and exploring vast realms of experiences.
Forests and oceans of lives
Navigating through diverse and abundant lives, symbolized by forests and oceans.
And through the way
Progressing through the difficult path marked by black rocks splitting wide.
Of the black rocks splitting wide
Overcoming significant obstacles in the journey.
And flow ten thousand miles
Traveling a great distance, symbolized by ten thousand miles.
Well, I've had enough
Expressing a sense of dissatisfaction and weariness with the current state of life.
Wasting my body, my life
Rejecting a wasteful and unfulfilling way of living.
I'll come away
Choosing to step away from shallow and superficial aspects of existence.
Come away from the shallows
Seeking depth and meaning beyond the surface of life.
Can this sullen child
Questioning whether one, represented as a sullen child, can break free from constraints.
As bound as the ox that I ride
Comparing the speaker's emotional state to the bondage of an ox, indicating a sense of limitation.
Climb to the heart
Exploring the possibility of reaching the core or essence of something profound.
Of the white wind singing high
Reaching towards the sublime and pure, as symbolized by the white wind singing high.
And blow my frozen eyes?
Contemplating a transformative experience that could thaw emotional numbness or stagnation.
