A Garden Among The Flames (2009)

A Garden Among The Flames

Liner Notes:

"Wonder,
A garden among the flames!"
- Ibn Arabi


Lyrics:

Parched and dry I wander low and high
Ceaselessly restless even rested
The sun burns and the night freezes
The sun burns and the night freezes

But even here in this infernous place
Your calm, beloved, is felt in my heart
I wonder to see
A garden among these flames

Divided in thirds and filled with singing birds
Fountains flow mid mountains of flowers
The sun cools and the night eases
The sun cools and the night eases

With you in my heart I am free
In spite of the heat surrounding me
Flames leap like fountains
Embers burn like flowers
The rushing winds greet me in chorus

With my heart I kiss this woe and it is gone
Your calm, beloved, is felt in my heart
I wonder to see
A garden among the flames
