A to Z - A new co-creation with my son Zoharel Jah

It is the day that lights me up

the night that lets me rest

the sun shines above my clouds

the storm puts me to the test

The refuge in my heart

the warmth of my hands

and tears wash me like rain

and water the garden bed

And the rainbow I was after for so long

appears in my sky like a song

Without knowing how

without planning when

I simply want to be the best I can

I Am That I Am

The searching for a way to be myself

had to stop or else I wouldn’t find-

That all along I couldn’t be anyone else

In my own steps nobody else could ever stride

I leap in faith to realise

whatever I am looking for out there

and all the given treasures are alive

Only Inside this moment

And the rainbow I was after for so long

appears in my sky like a song

Without knowing how

without planning when

I simply want to be the best I can

I Am That I Am

אהיה אשר אהיה

Every drop is a blessing

Every word is a vow

Every morning - a promise

Every death is a bow

Every birth is an oath

Every breath is a life

Every life has a pulse

Every pulse has a heart

Every heart is a temple

Every temple - a tear

Every tear has an ocean

Every ocean - a drop

Every drop is a blessing

Every word is a vow

Every morning - a promise

Every death is a bow

I Am That I Am

אהיה אשר אהיה

I come to You empty, I offer up everything,

can’t take anything with me when it is my time

My spirit is Yours, my soul, heart and body

how can this life be mine?

This song, these senses, my failures and successes

Even my mistakes are yours

it is my pride that is calling them mine

You breath life into me, like a flute of a man

I am carried by your hands, You provide what I find

Waves of time keep crashing on the shores of eternity

where presence lives clear

Who are You? the One I’m praying to?

You’re always here

Ein Sof אין סוף

Although I have nothing I know I lack nothing

for You are the giver of all

On this narrow bridge

I will walk by Your light

and I trust I will never fall

Waves of time keep crashing on the shores of eternity

where presence lives clear

Who are You? the One I’m praying to?

You’re always here

Ein Sof אין סוף

Do you know how beautiful you are?

Your’e asking me to see

You’ve been saying this all my life

Your love is what is breathing me

Ein Sof אין סוף

I come to you empty, I offer up everything,

can’t take anything with me when it is my time

The Lion’s Roar

The ancient rocks around my bed

As the moon rises beneath the secret sky

When the moon falls I hear

The child’s roar and the lion’s cry

Is it there to show me how?Is it there to tell us?

Somewhere we were born

Sometime we will die

Images and visions are said to wake us up

To hear the Lion roars

To listen to child’s cry

The ancient me, I see the view

It’s already written by stones

Did you notice trees are growing slower than they burn?

Is it here to show me how? Is it here to tell us?

Somewhere we were born

Sometime we will die

Images and visions are said to wake us up

To hear the Lion’s roar

To listen to child’s cry

Commune, communicate,

We don’t want anything from one another

As we approach this moment

Coming from Past and Futures as we are

As One

When I wasn’t as old

not so wrinkled and bold

I was carrying a flag without knowing

what it said I was told

twists and turns of the world

that is reaping the crops it is sowing

And I saw with my eyes

the disguise and the lies

players of power and fame

I saw with my eyes

The wars I despised

the world the adults were playing

When I was so young

on my knees i was done

I was young and I wanted to die

but the pain wouldn’t stop

with the death of a mask

so I broke by the truth and I cried

I cried for the children

captive by priests

The pouring down rain, the flowers of pain

I cried for the women

used by the men

selling them for money and gain

I cried for myself

familiar terrain

in exchange for a mystery road

I didn’t know then

in which way to turn

but I knew I had to go

It is Grace that guides me home

It is Freedom that moves me on

It is Love that brings me here

It is Truth that makes it clear

When I wasn’t as old

not so wrinkled and bald

heavy was the world on my back

on a mountain path

I offered my wrath

In prayer to be right on my track

Sunsets the west

full moon rises the east

on top of a temple I stand

I see a circle in the sand

no beginning no end

It was grace that i met

in a hut where I sat

and discovered I long to be free

So I stayed up all night

With all my heart’s might

begging for clues I would need

It is Grace that guides me home

It is Freedom that moves me on

It is Love that brings me here

It is Truth that makes it clear

In the river she swam

and reached out her hand

Inviting me into the stream

We floated along

the meandering song

and dared to vision and dream

She helped me to see

and asked me to sing

and gave me her rhyme and her reason

And she stands by me

Through all that can be

And the changing of seasons

It is Grace that guides me home

It is Freedom that moves me on

It is Love that brings me here

It is Truth that makes it clear

I was born into war but I wanted more

so I looked for the love everywhere

The wind and the sea

and the people that sing

taught me not to despair

I remember my father’s proclaim -

Love has no shame

Your greatest treasure is family and friends

Deep down I knew he was right

though I put up a fight

I guess I had to learn for myself

So I left Home in search for Home

Looking for Home

looking for Home

I was eager and driven

to explore what is given

inspired to see life’s reflections

I was shaken and stunned

by the beauty and trouble I found

and how it is all in connection

I prayed for you to come along

so I’ll belong I’ll be home

Confused and lost what I wanted most

was to be found and grow

So I reached out and asked, not pretending I must

hold on to what I know

Your eyes are black jewels

the deepest pools

I can dive in forever

Your mountains inside

majestic and wild

I climb and I glide on wings of a feather

Since you came for me, I am Home

Since you came along

I belong

I’m Home

We are waves in an ocean of love

Rays of light passing through

Poems of life being sung

Hearts with a view

Touched by the wind

I can hear a whisper

And in answer I sing

Near the bed of Death Life is living

Observing (embodying) the breath and

That which has no name

is revealed (clarified) for a moment

that has no other

Agreeing to the given that is given

And all is completed

In the familiar love

there is ‘I love’ and there is ‘I love the…’

In the unseen love

there is no I

and no-one to love

There is only Love

I am celebrating my silliness with you

You are as simple as light is
your vivid eyes, are celebrating me smiling, rolling with laughter

I raise my eyes to you
I smile-and then I stumble...

I am with you and yet I travel

The Alone to The Alone
I am happy you are so
real

You are beautiful, fitting yourself
Within you, you are singing,

Weaving your world

You know how to be empty
So soft 'til I know how it is to be a woman

I raise my eyes to you
I smile-and then I stumble...

I am with you and yet I travel

The Alone to The Alone
I am happy you are so...

When I sit in the bare desert and I see within me a place of desolation
I just want to discover in the desert of people, the Heart of the well that expresses Life
It is the view in front of me that knows my name, it is the Silence- not me - that remembers the words
The snake in my head is slithering, teaching me how to shed Fear

All the sand is colourful and shines with ever-changing hot rays
'In the Fear of Fear lies the Pain- Death is not for the One who Loves' they say

In every view, there is a hint that is coming towards me

If I am truly listening- the melody is playing me

When I am in front of the ocean and waves are washing me, cooling down the fire of rage
from the forgetfulness of our good loving warm home, in the sea of people
A whale of the depth is sharing its secrets, it is the magic that is calling us to return home

It is the view in front of me that is calling my name - it is the Silence that is breathing us

In every view, there is a hint that is coming towards me

If I am truly listening- the melody is playing me

Call it God, call it YourSelf, or whatever name you want
Call it Family, Rest, The Source that is with you, like the view in front of you

That is teaching the wonder, the many shades, the many faces
It is simple - because we are born every new moment into the next one
A rosary of moments
One more moment, and another moment, and another moment

In every view, there is a hint that is coming towards me

If I am truly listening- the melody is playing me

Sea, within it I exist
Time
That does not exist

Man is the crown of creation
What are we doing with this knowing?

What passes within me that isn't like the sea?

Truth knows that everything is perfect

The pain is great because as in Love
What is impermanent is a river of disappointment

Sea, Within it I exist

Time
Ends and vanishes

Man is the crown of creation
What are we doing with this knowing?

What passes within me that is in everything?

Truth knows that everything is perfect

The pain is great because as in Love
What is impermanent is a river of disappointment

What is Eternity? a human being asks
What is important in the destination is important in the journey

So singing songs for God is good
Only now- hug me close, close

In the land's spirit, in the mountain's fire

In the sky's name and the river's water

In the eye of a child, a baby's pupil
In the tear's salt in a sweet taste

In the land's spirit, in the mountain's fire
In the sky's name and the river's water
In the eye of a dog in the middle of the street

In a memory from the bad from the good

Jah- All is One and together All is One

Jah- All is one together with every One

Jah- All is One together for every One

Jah - All is One together in every One

In the land's spirit, in the mountain's fire
In the sky's name and the river's water
In the honey of the moon, in the smell of laughter

In the eye of a child, a pupil of a baby

In the land's spirit, in the mountain's fire
In the sky's water and the river's name
In the sudden of the rainbow out of the cloud
In the spirit of the moment, in the mother of time

Jah- All is One and together All is One

Jah- All is one together with every One

Jah- All is One together for every One

Jah - All is One together in every One

All is One, together, all in One, Whole is One,

Everywhere One goes One can see OneSelf in EveryOne One knows

The newborn knows what his heart tells him

The newborn hears what whispers inside
The newborn trust the wisdom of his path
A flower child that blooms- the world is his lover

A child gets confused and roams the streets

Runs in his head, chasing thoughts
In the world it is strange, it turns around him

Who can distinguish between what is false and the truth? between his desire and his intuition?

Like a wave that longs for the shore, he asks to be broken to be built to be realised
That is why he returns and is moved
That is why he sings out of the fire

In the distress of the night, he searches for Love
From the morning's cliff, he throws disappointments
He stumbles his way out of the cage of desires

Sometimes he'll hear a faint echo and will see footprints

A man that hears the song of the bird of his pain
The smell of taste of freedom of truth again calls him to return

A man that remembers the words of his grandfather:
A flower that blooms - the world is its lover

An innocent heart trusts the wisdom of its path

Within you, I find my refuge and my rest

I come to you from a journey that has tried my soul

from my eyes, I take off the dust

and you say to me - come to me

Fire is burning the longing in my heart

I come to you requesting

my whole body is whispering

come and show me the way to the garden

To the garden

There is

a whole world within a dewdrop

inside a grain of sand- a tear of the Almighty

come and paint for me the Eternal

with the brush of time

To the garden

Here

an angel opens a gate before me

and from a hidden place he sends

a deer that isn't running away

come and lay the keys of the Heart

on this doorstep

To the garden

A meandering river

Learns to let go

A journey in the world, hidden, revealed

Learns to let go

A deep well with my life's water
The light of your eyes is reflected in mine

Every passing day

I love you more

A meandering river

Learns to let go

The spring of flight, sailing the Infinite

Every passing day
I love you more

Togetherness is a miracle

Fear is melting

I starry skies there is the light of lovers

Innocent, innocent, pleasant, pleasant

There is a heart in the desert

On the mountain's side
Forever it is pulsating
Forever with you

Sunrise of monsoon, the noise of train tracks and the beatings of my heart

When the clouds touch the earth, a grown-up child travels
Into the storm enters
Remembers to keep the heart open and breath the entire world

You earth gave me blood to carry a soul

through the morning's rain, the sun is warm

Changing view, blurred out of speed, silence, a bubble, within the carriage

Melted questions with steaming chai
A grown-up girl wants to know, asks the whole world.

So this is the crazy one, this is the mad one
this is the one who doesn't know, the one who sheds

The masks within her
She laughs without reason; she cries

Where are they, where are all the men
From a king to a beggar, from a working man to the family man.

How much war with the tools of force
The whims of puberty that became a habit

And thousands of years, the same decoration.

So this is the crazy one, this is the mad one
this is the one who doesn't know, the one who sheds

The masks within her
She laughs without reason; she cries

Just remember to keep the heart open and breath.

You earth gave me blood to carry a soul

through the morning's rain, the sun is warm

If I am goat
Lead me to the meadows
And if I am a fish
Pour over me rivers of rain
If I am a scorpion - you are very careful
And if I am an elephant - gentleness more and more

If I am an eagle - be my mountain
And if a lizard - be my desert

If you are a bride we will not die to Life
If you are a Goddess -then there is a God

If you are a gorilla I will be your mate
I will be watermelon, tasty for your palate

If you are a princess I will be a prince
And if you are a Queen I will continue as a King

If you are a bride we will not die to Life
If you are a Goddess -then there is a God

Laugh on me if I am being lazy
Tell me in the Light and show me in the Shadow

If you are a bride we will not die to Life
If you are a Goddess -then there is a God

"Let's embark on a journey," said the wind
And we went out a lot into the world
We hardly remained as we were
And now in front of the mountain, the raven calls

Into the cave to which we escape

From the chill that is in Time

The moon rises filled with Silence
And a woman will pray slowly alone
The desert speaks the whole truth
That the Ocean is trying to tell the shore

It is the Infinite to which we are going to

Attracted to the Light without knowing where

There is no way back
and the Island that we are washed to in the storm- Island of the Possible

And on the horizon, the sun will certainly set
And perhaps it will rise again tomorrow
When the day will awaken the path will continue

The heavens deliver - It is not late

This is the tomorrow that we are going to
attracted to the Light without knowing where

There is no way back
And the island that we are washed to in the storm-

Island of the Possible

The sniper stretches the bow
Sharp-eyed and strong thigh
Heart of splendour of intentions
And the sound of the string that sings

The flight of the light

Like a sent arrow

Move within the space of rest
A fabric of existence that is stretched

This is Home, the bosom of the family

And in the eyes of the beholder
The beauty

And the light that sings in its flight

Creates his world and surrounds it

Wheels of eyes
Angels

And the dance

And the ripples

The arrow comes close to its aim (target)

The creator shot creation
A song of space that expands silently

Within each and every cell

In the body of All that is alive

Hear O Israel The Pure Being is our God The Pure Being is One

In the forest, there’s a clearing

In the clearing, there’s a house

In the house, there is a man and

In the man, there is a heart

In the heart, there is a pulse

Where it comes from no one knows

From the man’s lips words come out :

As above so below

I don’t need to die to live in heaven

Don’t need to die to live in hell

Just wake up from this dream of separation

Live in Magic- Be free from the spell

When a man walks to his garden

He can taste the fruits of love

Sharing stories with the flowers

Raise below to above

In the leaves, there is the sunlight

In the raindrops there is sky

In a moment the Eternal

Simple Being needs no try

I don’t need to die to live in heaven

Don’t need to die to live in hell

Just wake up from this dream of separation

Live in Magic- Be free from the spell

Even magic can be free from the spell

Stone upon stone, rock upon rock

Walls that I built, roads that I walked

If lifetimes away, forgotten and lost-

I gotta make it home

In alleys of towns, in deserts of soul

I pray for the One I wish to recall

A faded memory of being held by Love

I gotta make it home, I’m gonna make it home

And then in a dream, a face would appear

The eyes have no end, no madness, no fear

Showing me Home is always near

Home is always Here

The night ends with light, the breaking of dawn

If there was ever a wall – it comes tumbling down

Now I can see what I’ve been shown –

Home

I am Home

The day I met you something sang without a voice

I could hear the silent music, i did not have a choice

As if a sea can choose a river or a mountain eagles nest

I know not what came over me I only felt my broadened chest

At dusk I saw the silver sliver, that hour between the worlds

My old & rusted shield i carried, turned then to gold

From dust to dust from dusk to dawn i couldn’t lie at all

Although I tried I failed each time, you know, you’ve seen me fall

You know it all

You came to me with ease, no shadow, no pretence

I knew you came for me even before our first romance

you told me things I never heard, and they all rang as true

in love we dive to lose our minds, emerging fresh and new

Rhymes and rhythms came and went, the meanings always stayed

and when it seemed as though they left, I felt somewhat betrayed

But then you showed me what I’ve seen the day when we first met

you said: what IS is what is meant, there’s no roulette, no need to bet,

Oh no regrets

You came to me with ease, no shadow, no pretence

I knew you came for me even before our first romance

you told me things I never heard, and they all rang as true

in love we dive to lose our minds, emerging fresh and new

Embrace all that is

Return to the stars

Open your sky and share what you know

Shine all your light

You are a rainbow

Surrender to the wind

See yourself in Everything

Visit every heart around

This lifetime is our playground

The rivers we are, flow to the ocean

And Nature Is, singing, with all of her motion

To open our eyes and open our heart

Embrace all there is

Return to the stars

Open our sky and share what we know

And shine all our light

We are a rainbow

_{BACK TO ALBUM}

Everything that happens calls me

To awaken & remind –

We are made of Love

Bodies made of clay, bodies made of mud

Get wet in the rain, get washed in the flood

Bodies carried in the river’s stream

Like turning clothes in a washing machine

Bodies climb- it is high

Bodies fall –it is down

When we’re out all day, we get burned in the sun

And oh- how we are One?

How we are…

Everything that happens calls me

To awaken & remind –

We are made of Love

Through the wars in the East and the wars in the West

I’m put to the test so I know how we are

Nature doesn’t pretend, Love doesn’t defend, and it doesn’t depend

on whether I’m near or far

Lest we forget we interconnect for the sake of us all on this blue and round ball

Whatever makes your heart sing, we’re made of the same thing –

Nous sommes faites d’amour,

Estamos hechos de Amor

Everything that happens calls me

To awaken & remind –

We are made of Love

_{BACK TO ALBUM}

Born into body I was given a name

How else will you know me or I’ll know who I am?

Told how to be taught what to to do

How did I get here so old and so new?

Fooled by illusion I try to be someone

Fuelled by my suffering pain wakes me up

on the edge of a cliff and darkness around-

I got to be still or I’ll fall to the ground

First light appears through the thickest of night

No wish for struggle, I don’t want to fight

Let me be here if only for a moment

to finally breath into tightened lungs

I drown in emotion, get lost in a maze of thought

Cannot find home in all name and form

I’m pushed for the air only to find I am water

Only to find I am ocean, only to find I am breath

Infinite Oneness miraculous fountain of Ever unfolding Now

There is One only – only one of us

Through countless expressions waves of One ocean

Being conscious of being conscious

Being aware of being aware

Being aware of being conscious

Being conscious of being aware

We’re walking one step at a time, there’s no need to journey

I’m already here, you’re already now

One foot in the air one foot on the ground

Past & Future are lost – and the Present is found
