Why is everyone so much in spirit?
What is the joyous occasion?
Everyone is dancing and laughing,
So merrily.
What is this all about?

I stumble across the swaying bodies,
And twirl my way through the crowds.
I am pulled to one side and asked to dance.
I dance with him and ask him,
Why is everyone so happy?

Does it matter? He asks me. Don’t worry,
Just dance.
I do, but still, I wonder. Why do I smile?
Just dance.
Why do I dance without knowing?
Why is the music pulling at me?

I fall into a trance and just dance.
No more questions, no more knowing,
Only dancing and laughing and smiling,
Only celebrating.
You don’t need a reason for celebrating,
