Hu's He THEN?...

He Who (Hu) loves you
And has scent you to a copious garden
A garden within
Where roses
Flower kings and
Prostrating flowers
Sway with love
To and from the Rose maker.

Their labour of love
A fragrance so pure...
That even ants
Move upon the dust
Of compassionate footprints...
Within this universal garden of love

So Hu's He THEN?...
I cannot describe,
I cannot describe...
Huuuuuuu.

Dear Mercan Dede,
Thank you so much that you’ve accepted our add request! Your music means real beauty - all the best for your art!

- Music is aesthetically perceptible time, present time. And this reminds us of the identity of moment and eternity. - H. Hesse

as it comes closer,
it's color faints as what is it all about,
the skeleton of truth facing the true lie-
it now sees what's it not doing besides
adding shaped thoughts to nature,
then love comes in…


{beautiful Mercan!}

Wonderful music !

songe à la douceur
d'aller là-bas vivre ensemble !

Many thanks. Beautiful music, beautiful images.

Salam;

"From the heart of the lovers,
blood flows like a vast river.
Our body is the windmill and love: the water.
Without water the mill cannot turn."

We are as the flute, and the music in us is from thee;
we are as the mountain and the echo in us is from thee.

Our greatest glory
is not in never failing,
but in rising up
every time we fail.

Hello Mercan Dede,

Into the Heart of Music
Flowing into the Soul,
Into the Light of the Moon
Glowing in the Night Sky,
Into the Light of the Sun
Glowing on the Sea,
Forever Shining.

Peace & Love Alasdair.

Salam Friend,

Rumi

"In your light I learn how to love.

In your beauty, how to make poems.

You dance inside my chest,

where no one sees you,

but sometimes I do,

and that sight becomes this art."

Today I have built anew this whole crumbling world."*Rumi*

Soul receives from soul that knowledge, therefore not by book

nor from tongue.

If knowledge of mysteries come after emptiness of mind, that is

illumination of heart.
Tribute To: Mevlâna Jalâluddîn Rumi

"And He is with you"

with you
in your search
when you seek Him
look for Him
in your looking
closer to you
than yourself
to yourself:
Why run outside?

Melt like snow.
wash yourself
with yourself:
urged by Love
tongues sprout
from the soul
like stamens
from the lily...

But learn
this custom
from the flower:
silence
your tongue.

~Rumi

Thank you for adding me:) I've been in love your music since I spent 4 days in the magic Istanbul. That makes about 5 years:) I bought Seyahatname somewhere in Istiklal Caddeshi and it always reminds of this place... Then of course I went to see the Fatih Akin film (twice) and recently got a dvd from my husband:) Thank you for the music & say hello to all wonderful Istanbul people. Best wishes from Sopot!
