[00:00.00]One day I didn't understand the difference
[00:03.66]between "mug"and"water".
[00:06.74]I became angry and threw a doll
[00:08.28]on the floor and it broke.
[00:10.70]In my quiet,dark world
[00:12.27]I didn't feel sorry for doing it
[00:15.49]Then my teacher took me out
[00:16.73]into the warm sunshine.
[00:19.29]We walked down to the well
[00:20.30]where someone was drawing water.
[00:23.27]My teacher put my hand under the water
[00:25.31]and spelled the word,
[00:27.21]"w-a-t-e-r" at the same time in my other hand.
[00:33.63]Suddenly ,I felt an understanding.
[00:36.73]Then mystery of language was revealed to me.
[00:40.01]I knew then that"w-a-t-e-r",
[00:44.74]was the wonderful cool something
[00:46.87]flowing over my hand.
[00:49.51]That living word awakened my soul,
[00:51.88]gave it light,hope,joy,and set it free!

[01:06.00]I now had the key to all language ,
[01:08.26]and I was eager to learn to use it.
