Wo La So, the beginning of a journey








.



ངང་པ་མཚོ་ལ་ཆགས་ནས། རེ་ཞིག་སྡད་དགོས་བསམས། མཚོ་མོ་དར་ཁ་བཅགས་་ནས། རང་སེམས་ཁོ་ཐག་ཆོད།

In love with the lake, the swan wishes to stay longer. But ice covers the lake, And the swan flies With no regrets. 
'The album title, Yeshi Dolma, is the name of Tenzin’s late mother, and is a tribute to her strength and the hardship she endured and her generation endured after fleeing their homeland after the Communist China occupied Tibet. Yeshi Dolma raised nine children on her own, five survived. She also fostered a hundred orphaned Tibetan children in exile. Homage to all the elder generations. 
Written during lockdown in 2020, Wo La So is about non-attachment. Based on a poem by the Sixth Dalai Lama, the song paints a beautiful picture of letting go and accepting change.'
