Grigory Leps was the popular singer I mentioned, without saying the name, in previous post. He had some problems with his throat 10 years ago & had to have surgery. Since then his voice is amazing. A friend who saw him said he is adored by the Russian people... I've used

What Can a Man Do?
What can a man do?
Alone, just a man
When this economic river
Carries us away to the waterfall
What can a man do?
A single, ordinary man
When the (super)stars, politicians
Tell us, "For peace you need war"
What can a man do?
To look not only at himself
To understand the magic of desire
That's how we are, that's how the world is, desiring something
What can a man do?
To know that that secret dream
Always comes true upon waking
But then, we'd better know what to dream of
Our Father in heaven! Hallowed be your name
Your Kingdom come, Your will be done on earth
As it is in heaven
Give us this day our daily bread
And forgive us our debts, as we have also forgiven our debtors
And lead us not into temptation, but deliver us from evil
For Yours is the Kingdom the power and the glory, Amen
(Arabic prayer)
Bismi-llāhi r-raḥmāni r-raḥīm
Lā ’ilāha ’illa l-Lāh wa Muḥammadu r-rasūlu l-Lāh
(Hebrew prayer)
Adon olam, asher malach,
beterem kol yetzir nivra.
Leet na'asah vecheftzo kol,
azai melech shemo nikra.
Veacharey kichlot hakol,
levado yimloch nora.
Vehu haya, vehu hoveh,
vehu yiheyeh betifara.
What can a man do?
A simple, ordinary man
To understand how important he is
And that there is an eternal battle of good and evil over him
What can a man do?
A single, normal man
He can only take a stride, so what?
A stride of peace, and soon the whole world will follow

Life flows
The steel of bright wings tears the clouds in half.
You're somewhere underneath and a star shines, but not for us
Still we must manage to say something, even if we don't know what,
when my horizon will merge into yours you will know.
Warming our souls, redeeming our oaths,
life resumes its flow
inconspicuously and silently, like the quiet after the storm,
life resumes its flow.
Breaking our chains, putting us back afloat,
life resumes its flow.
Forcing us to think before giving up all hopes,
life resumes its flow.
Light would chase the happiness of a couple, their secret out of the window.
It's tempting to draw the curtains to stop hearing the outside world.
Some people think hiding from the light is a victory and a reward.
But it's as useless as letting dawn beat on the window.

Well I'll tell you now, its a good joke to think you could live in Doubtful Sound... hahaha... Really is... You could though, only maybe. In a boat or yacht would be close to the only way, or best way. I met a young lady who was brought up close to there, hours walk from any road & by the ocean. Doubtful Sound has a population of roughly zero. You could get a bucket, put it into the ocean, and have fresh water. Its mostly a tourist destination, boat cruise. Probably very good fishing too. Sai Baba spent time in India establishing essential services like hospitals & wells for water for many many people... I would be guessing like the next person, the interpretation of that part of dream. However, if one has not got ones needs sorted, where one is, with a surplus, theres not much of a future where one is, little alone elsewhere... We have no idea mostly, what life is like elsewhere....
Grigory Leps has some heart-felt lyrics/words, or so I found out today...
