1. Birth of the Buddha [Download MP3] [Download Karaoke MP3]
(Lyrics/Music: Daniel Yeo)

In the ancient land
A child is born
Once in a time so long
And the gods and men
So they said
Homage to the Lord

*Namo tassa bhagavato arahato
Samma-sambuddhassa.

*Translation:
Homage to that Lord, the Worthy One,
Perfectly enlightened by Himself.

Be kind to all your friends and family
Be kind to cats and butterflies and trees
Don't hurt the fishes swimming in the sea
Here is what the Buddha says to me

To Love is to care for all living around us
To Love is to be kind to all beings around us


3. Don't Be Angry [Download MP3]

If you're angry
You'll make yourself an ugly little child,
ugly little child

Anger scares your friends away
La la la la la la la la
So smile and brighten up your day

I wish one day too, I'll be like Him

If you have a problem
Don't worry, hand it over to the Buddha
Just listen to Him and you will see the light
to all the darkness and miseries
Gautama Buddha, He's here for you and me
By your side
Day and night
Rain or shine
Gautama Buddha, He's here for you and me
Welcome Him to our hearts till eternity

7. Pass It On [Download MP3] [Download Karaoke MP3]
(Lyrics: Daniel Yeo Music: Imee Ooi)

There is a gift from Lord Buddha
I like to share with my family
Share it with my friends
and take it round the world
and share it with all beings
Pass it on, pass it on
Let the Buddha's wisdom stay on
Pass it on, pass it on
Let the Buddha's love spread on
Pass it on, pass it on
Let the Buddha's compassion flow on
Pass it on, pass it on
Let the Buddha's Teaching goes on and on
