Stevie Wonder - A Seed's a Star / Tree Medley lyrics

Thank you very much, ladies and gentlemen
And those of you who have
Taken with us this long
Journey to celebrate the completion of
The orbit of portineau
Tonight, as a tribute to portineau
We have a special song
Written and performed for the
Occasion by Stevie Wonder
A seed is a star, a star is a seed

We're a people black as is your night
Born to spread Amma's eternal light
Which since time began
Has been to bring truth to every man
Our ancestors have since long ago
Passed their wisdom down so we could know
For here lies the key
That will help unfold the mystery

A seed's a star a seed's a star's a seed
Oh, a star's a seed a star's a seed's a star

In myself I do contain
The elements of sun and rain
First a seed with roots that swell
I gradually burst through my shell
Pushing down into the ground
The root of me is homeward bound
A trunk, a leaf, and there I am
A miracle of least by far
Tree - you are the longest living one we know
The largest of all plants and still you grow
Tree - within your branches
There's such history
So much of what we're searching for to know
Every fifty years we celebrate, yeah, yeah
Po Tolo, our star, as it rotates
Though infinitely small
It is still the heaviest of them all

A seed's a star a seed's a star's a seed
A star's a seed a star's a seed's a star
A seed's a star a seed's a star's a seed
A star's a seed a star's a seed's a star
