As a proudly Australian initiative, we’re excited to showcase a collection of Australian stories, music, tributes and more.
Baha’i Blog Studio Sessions is an initiative where we invite Baha’is and their friends from around the world to come into a studio and share the Baha’i Writings put to music.
In this Baha’i Blog Studio Session, we’re in Adelaide, Australia with Delia Olam who sings “Ô Ami !” in French based on the Writings of Baha’u’llah.
This song was filmed and recorded in Adelaide, Australia in December 2023.
O FRIEND!
In the garden of thy heart plant naught but the rose of love, and from the nightingale of affection and desire loosen not thy hold. Treasure the companionship of the righteous and eschew all fellowship with the ungodly.
Ô ami ! Dans le jardin de ton cœur, ne plante que la rose de l’amour, et du rossignol de l’affection et du désir, ne relâche pas ton étreinte. Attache-toi soigneusement à la compagnie des justes et abstiens toi toute relation avec les impies.
Metre: 4/4
