Story Behind The Song
I was struck by the notion that we are all connected,
And wanted to share that concept in the hope that we all could walk just a bit more carefully on the planet, taking care of all that we behold.
Song Description
It is a song that helps us to see that we are all connected. What we do to another, we do to ourselves.
It is, in a sense an environmental song...one of respect and peace.

Lyrics
Todo Esta Conectados (Everything is Connected)
1.
Hurt no living thing
neither fly nor tiny seed
Hurt not the daffodil
or the moth with the guilded wing
.
Hurt not the whales that sing
Or bird in the tree.
Hurt not the little lamb
Or the gentle manatee.
Chorus:
Todo esta conectados
Si lastimamos una flor
Se preocupa
Una estrella
2.
Hurt not the gentle cow
or the hen on her eggs
hurt not the lady bug
or the spider with many legs.
Hurt not the bumble bee
or the turtles in the sea
Be kind to the salmon,
their rivers and streams
And kind to the air we breathe.
Chorus:
All things connected are
All things near and far
One cannot hurt a flower
Without the troubling of a star.
3.
Walk softly on the fields of green
And the forest trails
Watch out for all the hidden things;
The ants and slippery snails.
Take care of every plant you see
Each animal and human being.
The stars above and the earth below
Take care of everything.
Chorus:
All things connected are,
All things near and far
One cannot hurt a flower
Without the troubling of a star.
Todo esta conectados
Si lastimamos una flor.
Se preocupa
Una estrella.
Una estrella
