i am what i am

i am "me" - a very special "me"

it is a fortune worth celebrating
    on this great land there is not just one kind of footprint
god made humankind
    of all types and appearances each has its own contributions
i am so fortunate
    standing on my rooftop living happily
holding my heart
    telling the world what courage is

* what am i?  
    among ten there is only one
inside the vineyard
    sounds the water fairy's song of praise
what am i?
    one grain of sand among tens of thousands
the rock is so much bigger *
    i still like this "me"

i am so fortunate
    living openly among all different lives and creatures
with sincerity
    telling the world what courage is

* repeat *
very grateful that the heavens created this "me"
