about

< BONUS TRACK >
Once upon a time, I was wandering around the realm of darkness... Everything seemed to be empty, painful and meaningless, I was completely lost in life and didn't know what to do. After a few weeks of wandering, when the shift started to occur within me towards light slowly, I began to sing one of my favorite Rumi's poems.. Melody naturally flowed through my tongue... This original song held me so much at one of the most difficult times of my life, and without this song, probably this album didn't come out. The song was recorded in the jungle of Koh Phangan (Sound Temple), in the late evening just myself and a recorder (and incredible nature sound around), The sound quality is raw with no editing, but here is my vulnerability and inspiration for you from the depth of my heart <3

lyrics

“Oh Beloved,
take me.
Liberate my soul.
Fill me with your love and
release me from the two worlds.
If I set my heart on anything but you
let fire burn me from inside.

Oh Beloved,
take away what I want.
Take away what I do.
Take away what I need.
Take away everything
that takes me from you” ~ Rumi
