LYRICS One last look over your shoulder You bow before your mother You head across ephemeral borders All our faith is in you If you stay here, they'll steal your soul In secret we will pray for you, go! Little Buddha, you will march to Dharamsala Little Buddha, it's just after Himalaya Dont you ask us the reason why This land is no longer yours No one has the right to rule, over you! May be the answer is out there Beyond the wind, the snow and cold They will teach you that over there; go! Little Buddha... With tears in your childs eyes You turn your face and straight ahead You will march to the setting sun, go on! Little Buddha, one day you will, you will come back home Little Buddha, it's just before Himalaya’s dome...
PROJECT FREE BETTI plans to make different languages and original versions of the same Dharamsala song. Written in 1998, the song touches the destiny of Tibetan children who cross the Himalayas risking their lives fleeing their homeland to take refuge in India or Nepal. English, French, Portuguese, Spanish, Tibetan, Hindi & Sign Language versions are on line on Youtube and Dailymotion. We are working on the Arabic version and we are looking for German, Japanese, Russian, Chinese and other native tongue performers, you are welcome. Please contact us : free-betti@live.fr
