None more beautiful than Him
In all these worlds there's none more beautiful than him
He's the honey and the nectar of the stem
He's the eternal spring in the desert
He's the depth of the valley green
He's the cup from which every cup filleth
He's the source from which we all drink
In all these worlds there's none more beautiful than him
He's the honey at the centre of the stem
and when he walks he's the calm blue in the eye of the storm
and when he talks every sound responds
everyone rushes towards Him
Baba Nam Kevalam
In all these worlds theres non more beautiful than him
He's the honey and the nectar of the stem
and when we gaze upon him
its as if the first time we've ever seen
and the bliss of all could never measure up
to the bliss held in one single glance of his

The First Time
06:13
|
|||
|
I loved you since we first met, I’ve no hopes and no regrets,
(from the) beginning I could see, that you would be my destiny.
The first time I called your name, it was a dream and gift you gave,
and loving in this way, you and I could be the same.
And when this ocean of longing, from tears of separation,
dries with a burst of radiant sun, nothing remains but your love
The first time, you did appear, in front of me,
you drew me near, and your smile held me dear,
and your touch dispelled my fears.
The first time I saw your face,
there was such sweetness and such grace,
and with my hands I did trace, every particle did lace.
And when this ocean of longing, from tears of separation,
dries with a burst of radiant sun, nothing remains but you love.
There’s one thing I do regret, it was the moment that you left,
and though you showed me here inside,
where to find you, where love abides. Repeats.
And when this ocean of longing, from tears of separation,
dries with a burst of radiant sun, nothing remains but your love.

Mermaid Song
05:52
|
|||
|
Long ago there was a mermaid
She was living in the sea
Her hair was waving in the breeze
He heart was open, spirit free
And she was calling out to me
Then one day there came a sailor
And he took her for his gain
He didn’t even know her name
Her body broken, felt no shame
He didn’t even know her name.. Repeats
Chorus:
Mermaid song, it drifts across the water
leads me on so I can hear her calling
to the sea my love has gone
from the sea where she was torn
back to the sea our love was born
So her mermaid friends and family
Couldn’t bear the tragedy
They beached themselves in solidarity
Never again mermaids were seen
Never again mermaids were seen
How many injustices before
We stand and make strength our wall
Cause hand in hand we cannot fall
Cos love in truth lies touching all
Cause hand in hand we cannot fall
Chorus: Mermaid song, drifts across the water..

Song of sweetness:
The lyres of all minds play
to the same tune today.
There is fragrance in all hearts.
You came onto this earth
with Your exquisite appearance
and gave the same feeling to all.
Do not tear my garland of flowers,
my entire wealth of compassion.
Come close to me,
come closer, still closer,
take all that I have.

The Letter
06:25
|

|
If I write to you a letter, will you try to understand
Will the ocean of my longing, reach out for your hand
If I wake up in the morning and I stroke your golden hair
Will everything be better, will everything be fair
Beloved, my Baba, beloved, oh my love
And I see you in the spring time
in the tiny buds so bright
And I see you in the darkest, in the starry, starry night
And I see you in the winter cold, in the snow pure, pure white,
And I see you in the morning, in the full moon so bright
Beloved, my Baba, beloved, oh my love
Come walk besides me beloved, through all these sounds and sights,
through happiness and sorrow, through humanity’s plight.
For you I could do anything, just come back to my side,
for you I would do anything, just come back here inside,
beloved, my Baba, beloved, oh my love.
Baba Nam Kevalam. Repeats

Every time I Turn
05:44
|
|||
|
Chorus: Every time I turn, I see your eyes shining light within me
Everywhere I burn, I feel I feel your touch, it is taking me
Everywhere I go, I feel your smile warming deep within me
Everyone I love, it’s none but you making love to me
I know that I do survive by your love,
If I live or die it’s none but you can decide my love
And if I cry it’s not your fault only mine
I don’t deserve any grace but (to ask) it’s no crime
Chorus: Every time I turn, I see your eyes shining light within me
This is your time and I want to comply, my love
I'll give my all not deny what you want, my love
Here is my flower, though petals they may break sometimes
No matter love, they'll grow again in your sunshine

Oh Beloved, I see you smiling there
In my heart, I'm longing to be near
Chorus:
Take my mind, take my heart
Take my loving, take my art
Take my eyes, take my sight
Take my all, and take my might.
Oh Beloved just how can it be
That I can love you, oh so very deep
Chorus: Take my mind..
Night and day, night and day
Come what may, come what may
Here I am, here I'll stay
I will love you, come what may
Take my mind take my heart
Take my love take my heart
Oh beloved, just what am I to do
Every inch of my being's calling to you
Here I am, here I'll stay,
I will love you, come what may.
Oh beloved, just where am I to go?
Every part of me, is burning in your soul
Here I am here, here I'll stay,
I will love you come what may.

How can I say Goodbye
07:21
|
|||
|
How can I say goodbye to my loving heart
if tears are made to cry then my hearts made to..
How can I say goodbye to my loving heart,
if tears are made to cry then my hearts made to love
and my hands made to touch, and my arms meant to
hold you beloved, the sun is meant to shine
and the moon too beloved, the moon is meant to light
on the lovers that lie in the dark of night
and this love that was mine how can it leave my sight?
How can I say goodbye, to my loving heart?
if tears are made to cry then my heart’s made to love
and my hands made to touch
and my arms meant to hold you beloved
Just what’s it meant to be?
a constant emotion, a swell of tide and sea?
when every part of my being is calling out to thee
and then running after, every scent to breathe,
that you breathe.
If there’s some meaning to my life, a natural kind of vibe
so then, how can I let die the love that gives me life?
if its unnatural to lie, when truth is ever bright
so then, how can I let die this love that gives me light?
Oh beloved the sun is meant to shine
and the moon too beloved, to light the dark of light
every part of my being is running after thee
and trying to realise the love that sets us free
