You and I could talk about the few topics on which we drastically differ,
Let us instead talk about the things our hearts jointly celebrate.
You and I could talk about forests, mountains and valleys in far-away lands,
Let us instead talk about the precious things in our own little gardens.
You and I could talk about worldly events that everybody else is talking about,
Let us instead talk about our own lives that nobody else talks about.
You and I could talk about the differences in opinions we harbour,
Let us instead talk about what makes us different.
You and I could talk about timely topics – the latest trend and the newest fad,
Let us instead talk about that which is timeless.
