D-DU-UDU
Puff!  Puff! Puff! Puff! I puffed the smoke
 And went up  toward the sky
 I went  so high till I met the Lord
 I got close  and I  said hi.
  Chorus
 Oh! Lord  almighty Lord
Tell  us what to do
 So  we the people of the world
 Get to know who are  you.
 He smiled at me in a friendly way
 And he said: "listen son.
 He who knows well is not a sheikh
 And she's surely not a nun.
 Don't look for me inside the church,
 The temple or the mosque.
 To find me you should not search
 Where do the common folk".
 So I said...
 "Why not look well around you
 When you are in the wild?
 Why not feel the peace in you
 When playing with a child?
 Why can't you listen to the wind
 Blowing in your ears?
 All of this is just a hint
 For you and for your peers."
 But I said...
  Chorus
 All what you've heard is just a joke
 You'll never know who I might be.
 Puff! Puff! Puff! Puff! Just puff the smoke
 And you may rise up and see.
