I sway gently with the breeze.
I have no wants or desires.
I am one with the earth.
I am the essence of content.

The sunlight lands upon my leaves.
My branches grow ever higher.
My trunk grows greater in its girth.
I am the essence of content.

Sun goes up and sun goes down.
Centuries have come and gone.
I've seen much and said not a word.
I am the essence of content.

You'll never see me with a frown.
Listening watching from dusk till dawn.
Offering home to squirrel and bird.
I am the essence of content.

An ancient strength flows through me.
I'm old but never weak.
Life is the greatest ease.
I am the essence of content.

I never move and yet I'm free.
My world unchanging but never bleak.
Here amongst my fellow trees.
I am the essence of content.
