Hi Brother Oh,
thank you for reviving this song via internet. This song was once sang almost daily in Singapore Polytechnic Buddhist Society...guess is 1982 - 1983 period. I still keep a copy of the many Buddhist hyms but guess this song is missing. It will now add to my collection.

Try to serach for my brother 'Lee Buan Heng'. He is one guy who lead this song in most of our buddhist retreat!

Sadhu! Sadhu! Sadhu!

In your work I rejoice! :))

Dear Anny,
Thanks for your kind words. I am happy that there are people who appreciate the spiritual message in the Hymn.

Flight Of The Fair Bird
Fly on Fair Bird fly With the sun overhead
And crystal waters below
Your wings are strong And your heart is too
Fare thee well Fair Bird My heart fares on with you
Have courage Fair Bird and take care
Let no rain or cloud stand in your way
Let no man or beast lead you astray
- Fare on, Bird of my Heart
- Fare thee well
- Have faith Fair Bird in your flight
- The
- Awakened Ones
- They speak
- no lies
Be patient Fair Bird and ‘fore long
You too will reach that Land so pure Utterly, Utterly, Utterly
Freed From Sorrow’s Mighty jaws
Do Good. Avoid Evil. Purify The Mind.
Fly on Fair Bird Fly With the sun overhead
And crystal waters below
Your wings are strong And your heart is too
Fair thee well Fair Bird My heart fares on with you
Have courage Fair bird and take care
Let no rain or cloud stand in your way
Let no man or beast lead you astray
Fare on, Bird of my Heart Fare thee well Have faith Fair Bird in your flight
The Awakened Ones, They speak no lies
Be patient Fair Bird and ‘fore long
You too will reach that Land so pure Utterly, Utterly, Utterly
Freed from Sorrow’s mighty jaws
The End
- May You
- Soar
- To great
- Spiritual
- Heights
With Metta, Bro. Oh Teik Bin
