“Partly Right” is the sixth and final mantra of true love by Thich Nhat Hanh. This mantra is a gentle call to humility and unity. It reminds us that no matter how passionately we speak, believe, or argue—we are only ever partly right. Why? Because no single perspective can capture the vast, infinite truth.


Our words, labels, and beliefs help us navigate the world, but they also carve lines where none truly exist. The moment we say “I am right,” we risk making someone else wrong. But in reality, the deeper truth is this: we are all just facets of one being, expressing itself through different lenses.


This song is a surrender of the ego’s need to be correct and a celebration of the deeper connection underneath all of our seeming differences. When you listen, you might hear the mantra whispered by your own heart—or sung to you by the Infinite itself.


We’re all partly right… and wholly one.




Partly Right – Official Lyrics:


You say the sky is only blue,

I say it holds a thousand hues.

You say you know, I say, “Me too,”

But there’s always more than what we view.


No need to fight, no need to win,

Truth’s too wide to fit all in.


You are partly right,

And so am I.

We're pieces of the same old sky.

Not wrong, not right, just dancing light—

You are partly right.

We are all one light.


One sees the waves, one feels the tide,

One walks the shore, one swims inside.

We paint the world with what we’ve known,

But truth was never ours alone.


So let’s let go, let’s let it be,

There’s room for you, there’s room for me.


You are partly right,

And so am I.

We’re questions held in the same wide sky.

Not wrong, not right, just threads of night—

You are partly right.

We are all one light.


No final word, no sacred end—

Just love unfolding, friend by friend.

The only truth that always stays…

We are one in many ways.


You are partly right,

And so am I.

Let’s meet beneath this open sky.

One breath, one heart, one spark, one sight—

You are partly right.

We are all…

One light.

One light.

One light.
