Story behind the song

When the soul lies down on the grass, the world is too grand to describe...

Lyrics

Rumi

"Imagine the time when the part that you are
is going back to the source where it came from.

Listen- if you can bare it.
In the body of the world, they say, there is a soul.

But we have our ways
that will never be told...

Listen-
A union with a friend means not to be who you were,
But to be silence instead,
quietness, a place, landscape, a view..
where the language is seen from the inside.

There are hundreds of ways
to go down and kiss the earth.
In the body of the world,

beyond our ideas of right and wrong,
there is a field. I'll meet you there.

When the soul lies down on the grass,
the world is too grand to describe..."
