about

An early acoustic version of a song that sets to music a beautiful passage from the writings of Abdu'l-Baha, released to coincide with the worldwide commemoration of the one-hundredth anniversary of his passing.

* * * * * * * *

"The anthem of the Abha Kingdom can be heard from the celestial Concourse:

O lifeless one, bereft of heart and soul,
Come to life, come thou to life!

O slumbering one, wrapt in mire and clay,
Awake, do thou awake!

O drunken one, so dazed and gone astray,
Clear thy mind, clear thou thy mind!

The world is filled with sweetest musk; the eyes are brightened with His light; the heavens now are set ablaze.
From life and self be freed, be wholly freed!

Now is the time for sacrifice; here waft the breaths of Paradise;
secrets Divine are all made known.
Lead thou the lovers nigh, lead them nigh!

The sweetly singing mystic bird, upon a verdant cypress bough,
imparteth knowledge to the soul;
Commit His secrets to thy heart! Commit His secrets to thy heart!"

- Abdu’l-Baha, from "Light of the World," selection 56
