I thrive in all corners of the world.

You know me from the mall, from the office,

from the smooth rhythm of the sleeping baby’s breath.

Without you, I would not exist,

but without me, you would not live.

We work in happy harmony.

I bring utmost joy and deepest sorrow.

I am adored and despised by all.

I instill the tone of each day, each year, each life.

I am the melody of mankind.
