I HEARD THERE'S A LAND FAR, FAR AWAY
WHERE NONE
SAVE THE PURE OF HEART
CAN STAY
WHERE KINDNESS AND
TRUTH AND LOVE IS MY
MISSION
WHERE THERE'S NO HATRED,
ENVY OR DOUBT OR SUSPICION
IF YOU HAVE WEALTH OR
JEWELS OR FINE CLOTHES OVER
THERE
OR IF YOU HAVE NOTHING AT ALL
I DON'T CARE
IT'S A LAND UNIQUE, A PLACE LIKE NO OTHER
WHERE FRIENDS AND RELATIONS SPEAK WELL OF EACH OTHER
WHATEVER YOUR RACE, YOUR COLOR OR CREED
YOU'LL FIND THAT LOVE AND RESPECT IS ALL THAT YOU NEED
YOU'LL FIND GOODNESS THERE, NOT BECAUSE YOU SPEND MONEY
OR HOPE TO FIND RIVERS OF MILK AND HONEY
A PLACE WHERE THOSE WHOM GOOD FORTUNE MAY BLESS
DO NOT FROWN OR LOOK DOWN ON PEOPLE WITH LESS
WHERE EVERYONE THERE IS OF ONE ACCORD
THE JOY WHEN YOU "GIVE" IS ITSELF YOUR REWARD
THERE YOU NEEDN'T PRETEND TO BE SOMEONE YOU'RE NOTIT'S WHAT YOU ARE, THERE, AND NOT WHAT YOU'VE GOT
WHERE YOUR FRIENDS ARE TRUE IN GOOD TIMES OR BADWHERE YOUR FRIENDS ARE TRUE IN GOOD TIMES OR BAD
AND TRY HARD TO CHEER YOU WHENEVER YOU'RE SADAND TRY HARD TO CHEER YOU WHENEVER YOU'RE SAD
HOW NICE IF WE LIVED HERE THIS WAY TODAYAS THEY DO IN THIS LAND FAR, FAR AWAY

Poet Roland Moufarege wrote this poem and mailed it to a friend who in turn asked me to transfer it to PowerPoint.
I hope I did justice to his beautiful verses.Musical Background: A guitar interpretation of Nessun
Dorma (None Shall Sleep) . This is an aria from the final act of Giacomo Puccini’s opera Turandot.
