The 2nd Mantra of Love – So Very Happy | Official Lyrics

The second mantra of love by Thich Nhat Hanh is a simple, luminous truth:

“I know you are there, and I am so very happy.”

This mantra is about acknowledging the deep joy that arises simply from knowing someone you love exists and is present in your life—physically or spiritually, near or far. Presence isn’t limited by distance. When we truly see someone, when we recognize their being with mindfulness and appreciation, we water the seeds of joy and connection in both ourselves and in them.

To say “I know you are there” is to offer a kind of silent celebration.

To follow it with “and I am so very happy” is to smile with your whole soul.

This song, “So Very Happy,” is a chant of gratitude for the gift of presence—whether it’s the presence of a loved one sitting beside you, a soul who walks with you in memory, or the sacred company of nature, spirit, or Source.

So Very Happy – Official Lyrics:

Like the breeze that kisses trees,

Like the hush that calms the sea,

I feel your presence everywhere,

In the breath, in the air.

I know you are there,

And I am so very happy.

I know you are there,

And I am so very happy.

Just to see you, just to be—

Is enough for joy in me.

I know you are there,

And I am so very happy.

In the stillness, in the light,

In the quiet of the night,

Your being shines without a sound,

And peace is all around.

I know you are there,

And I am so very happy.

I know you are there,

And I am so very happy.

No need for words, no need for more,

Your presence opens every door.

I know you are there,

And I am so very happy.

In this moment…

I see you.

I feel you.

And I smile, from the inside out.

Happy…

So very happy.

And I am so very happy.

I know you are there,

And I am so very happy.

I know you are there,

And I am so very happy.

I know you are there,

And I am so very happy.

I know you are there,

And I am so very happy.
