From the albums SUMMER BREEZE (1972), GREATEST HITS (1975), SUDAN VILLAGE (1976), | |
THE SEALS & CROFTS COLLECTION (1979) and LIFT UP YOUR VOICES AND SING, VOL. 2 (1997). | |
Go east of your dream and farm. Let peace and silence spin your yarn. | |
What harm can befall thee in yon wilderness of clove? | |
Go on east of ginger trees. Go soft and silent like the breeze. | |
With ease be off and wander in yon wilderness of clove. | |
Go on past the goldenrods, where fools and angels lose their odds. | |
And gods of our ancestors did immerse themselves in clove. | |
Go on toward the crimson shore, beyond this life of metaphors. | |
Where doors of understanding's house decorates he them with clove. | |
(From Baha'i scripture) "Be lions roaring in the forests of knowledge, | |
Whales swimming in the oceans of life." | |
Prepare to meet Bahá'u'llá'h in the Garden of Clove. | |
Note: Vahid Odin Spencer provided me with the context of the closing lyric in October of 1999 -- | |
O Lord! Should the breath of the Holy Spirit confirm the weakest of | |
creatures, he would attain all to which he aspireth and would | |
possess anything he desireth. Indeed, Thou hast assisted | |
Thy servants in the past and, though they were the | |
weakest of Thy creatures, the lowliest of Thy servants and the most | |
insignificant of those who lived upon the earth, through | |
Thy sanction and potency they took precedence over the most | |
glorious of Thy people and the most noble of mankind. Whereas | |
formerly they were as moths, they became as royal falcons, and | |
whereas before they were as brooks, they became as seas, through | |
Thy bestowal and Thy mercy. They became, through Thy | |
most great favor, stars shining on the horizon of guidance, | |
birds singing in the rose gardens of immortality, lions | |
roaring in the forests of knowledge and wisdom, and whales swimming in the oceans of life. | |
(Abdu'l-Bahá: Tablets of the Divine Plan, Page: 107) |
