Lyrics

AWAKE MY HEART


Inspired from a poem of Hafiz
(c. 1320 – 1389) Sufi Mystic
From ‘I Heard God Laughing’
Translation by Daniel Ladinsky

Be kind and gentle with your heart
Take it out into the vast fields of Light
Let it unfold – let it be – let it breathe
Love give it wings
I say Love – set it free.

Awake my dear sleeping heart
I'm taking you out
into the vast fields of Light
Say to the Sun, Moon and Radiant Friend:
I will take you up now Beloved
on that wonderful dance you promised!

Lift me, O lift me nearer to Thee
Spin me around in Eternity
Breathe Thy sweet breath
through the wings of my heart
As I soar in the Light of Thy brilliance
Raptured in Love – as You promised

Be kind and gentle with your heart
Take it out into the vast fields of Light
Let it unfold – let it be – let it breathe
Love give it wings
I pray God – set it free
