Damien Rice - On Children

[@uncharted1990]

Every parent should listen to this.

[@richardwilson1234]

Why?

[@harithhumam4372]

+kitty lynch Why not..

[@unamed2516]

kitty lynch so they can understand their kids

[@clintwind5716]

kitty lynch So they can accept their children for who they are, instead of forcing their own way of life on them

[@anirudhhattangadi3534]

Yes this is absolutely true that we come through our parents but yet not belong to them. During our childhood we need their guidance and attention, but as an adult we need less of their attention guidance and more of other people's attention and guidance.

[@RamzyTaweel]

My soul can't get enough of these words and music ... can't remember the last time my soul flow out of the window and touched the heavens, today it did and it was such a delicious moments ...

[@gwenmolfetas8908]

Check out "the Prophet" by Khalil Gabran Damien also performed "Hypnosis" it's a Brilliant Masterpiece from an Animated movie!!

[@RamzyTaweel]

Thanks ... I did, and every time I feel lost I do play those songs to feel alive again ...

[@gwenmolfetas8908]

[@mariamosama9043]

Ramzy Taweel Yeah same feeling here

[@QuitEntertainment]

facken cringe dude, wow.

[@anaa2422]

This song never fails to make me contemplate the beauty of life and the universe

[@Antoinebech]

This is one of the most beautiful song you'll ever hear

[@psychocolate]

Your children are not your children. They are the sons and daughters of Life's longing for itself. They come through you but not from you, And though they're with you, yet they belong to themselves You may give them your love but not your thoughts. For they have thoughts of their own You may house their bodies but not their souls, For their souls dwell in the house of tomorrow, which you cannot visit, not even in your dreams. You may strive to be like them, but seek not to make them like you. For life goes not backward nor tarries with yesterday. You are the bows from which your children as living arrows are sent forth. The archer sees the mark upon the path of the infinite, and He bends you with His might that His arrows may go swift and far. Let your bending in the archer's hand be for gladness; For even as He loves the arrow that flies, so He loves also the bow that is stable.

[@believers2012]

Kahlil Gibran

[@rubendariofernandezalarcon]

Thank you so much for the lyrics.

[@quanvu3244]

sublime

[@kagitsune]

I really wish that my parents had read this poem, even just once. Luckily I had the privilege of reading it when I was reparenting myself after their abuse and neglect. Thank you for resharing this beautiful setting of the words

[@bigbadseed7665]

Every parent and every child can (or should) understand these words.

[@victtorialima3611]

This is So Beautiful even though I'm not a mother I am someone's child and I can feel every word.

[@richardlugali2690]

I NEED THIS ON SPOTIFY

[@negativ10]

I officially appreciate Damien Rice even more now

[@gwenmolfetas8908]

Beautiful Truth!!! Love K Gibran's Poems.... He would be proud of Damien's work on this Powerful Soul touching words brought to Life in Song!!! I cry just reading these words.....love your children that is All we can do!!

[@gwenmolfetas8908]

I wanted to send this Poem / Song to a dear friend who lost his only son....but could not!! It's So Beautiful and Every parent should here it But i did not want him to Cry!! (I hope he finds it on his own though)

[@joelmaqueira4851]

YES!

[@monkofeternalknowledge7109]

Only Damien Rice could do this - maestro strikes again!

[@harshalshinde227]

When parents will understand this....................................., the world will be the best place to live !

[@ExtraordinaryJam]

Oh hi Mark!

[@mr.melomaniacnextdoor6840]

So many memories related to this song. Listening to this after so long brought goosebumps all over my body!

[@Ohkapi]

I love it immensely. The lyrics touches me very deeply, I remember so well of the teachings I have been hearing these recent years. It resonances with this. Osho reminded us these as well.

[@lynvy353]

It's Gibran Khalil Gibran, from his book "The Prophet". It is one of the most wonderful things that you could touch or come across in life

[@alexisannaaguirre4365]

The prophet has been my favorite independent film since I discovered it on Netflix in 2018 when I was in college. Sad that they recently took it off this month. I’m going to buy it on KZbin, as it’s definitely worth owning.

[@raniabarazi4659]

this is beautiful. its a shame this song is underrated

[@InForTheLonghaul]

It's a shame the movie was so under the radar. It deserves an Oscar.

[@TheNatewl777]

+HiiighAsAKite yes it does. I had the book before watching the movie and when I found out ( quite by accident) that it had been turned into a movie I was so excited. it not only lived up to expectations but blew far past them. I loved it!

[@InForTheLonghaul]

TheNatewl777 I've watched it so many times. I keep noticing new things in the background art every play through.

[@anirudhhattangadi3534]

Rania Barazi .No its not. We may have born to our parents, we might have come through them but don't belong to them.

[@walaharb3300]

loved the book and I'm happy my favorite singer sang this

[@UrosDrljaca]

You are the bows from which your children as living arrows are sent forth. The archer sees the mark upon the path of the infinite, and He bends you with His might.

[@agirlkeepssecrets6644]

This was my favorite scene in the movie. I bawled my eyes out while holding my baby.

[@lynvy353]

I cannot wait to go see him in March. It's finally happening, a dream come true

[@gsmini3353]

Những đứa trẻ, chúng ko phải sở hữu của cha mẹ. Chúng là những hoàng tử và công chúa của Cội Nguồn. Cha mẹ chỉ là cây cầu để chúng tới đây Và dù chúng ở bên bạn hôm nay đấy Nhưng chúng rồi sẽ đi trên những hành trình của riêng mình (Ai dịch tiếp đi, cảm động quá...khóc luôn rồi)

[@DamienPaulLabonte]

I worked on this and it's the most beautiful project and most difficult one. Roger Allers and Salma Hayek made a new LION KING

[@cristiansotounet]

just beautiful.

[@hoseasinaga4538]

I'm crying..

[@mrdukk100]

3:42 until the end. Truly epic!

[@ans9864]

+Manuel Abascal Jr YES!

[@dedageraad]

This is the most beautfil rendition of this poem💗 Thank you

[@mahfoudissam1285]

loved the film

[@Crusader-Ramos45]

when I first saw the poem with this song, I thought the message of it was about a child choosing not to be like his parents, free to do what he wants and dreams of.

[@irinastevanovic6982]

Beautiful song...!
