Through the changes of a lifetime

Through the highs and lows

You must tell it to the bees

When a child is born

New life enters the family

Tell it to the bees

When a loved one dies

Moving on to the next life

Tell it to the bees

For the bees are sacred

Bridging all worlds

They bring prosperity to the home

And life to the land

So in times of joy

In times of sorrow

Take care of the bees

Lest they leave the hive

And leave the home bereft

Seasons turn and turn again

Fortunes rise and fall

The life of the home is the life of the hive

So in all things respect the land

And tell is to the bees
