Baha'i Blog Studio Sessions

Baha'i Blog's "Studio Sessions" is a series of videos on Baha'i Blog's YouTube Channel where we invite Baha'is and their friends from around the world into a studio to record and share a song or two based on the Baha'i Writings which they've put to music.

In this Baha'i Blog Studio Session, we're in Sydney, Australia, with sisters Shireen and Carmel Zein who sing "What a Power is Love", based on an excerpt from a talk given by Abdu'l-Baha.

We hope you enjoy this new series, and please subscribe to Baha'i Blog's YouTube Channel to get updates on new Baha'i-inspired videos like this one and more.

Below is the quotation on its own, and then followed by the quotation with the chords:

"What a power is love! It is the most wonderful, the greatest of all living powers.
Love gives life to the lifeless. Love lights a flame in the heart that is cold. Love brings hope to the hopeless and gladdens the hearts of the sorrowful.
In the world of existence there is indeed no greater power than the power of love."
                                           -Abdu'l-Baha

O CHILDREN OF MEN! Know ye not why We created you all from the same dust? That no one should exalt himself over the other. Ponder at all times in your hearts how ye were created. Since We have created you all from one same substance it is incumbent on you to be even as one soul, to walk with the same feet, eat with the same mouth and dwell in the same land, that from your inmost being, by your deeds and actions, the signs of oneness and the essence of detachment may be made manifest. Such is My counsel to you, O concourse of light! Heed ye this counsel that ye may obtain the fruit of holiness from the tree of wondrous glory.

In this Baha’i Blog Studio Session, we do something a little different. We're in Los Angeles, USA with Tom Francis who sings a cover of the song “Mona With the Children”,  originally by Doug Cameron.

The song is a protest song based on the true story of an Iranian Baha’i girl named Mona Mahmudnizhad, who, in 1983, at the age of 16, together with nine other Baha’i women, was sentenced to death and hanged in Shiraz, Iran, because she was a Baha’i.

http://bahaiblog.net/site/2014/12/interview-tom-francis/

Here are the lyrics to the song:

A 16 year old girl living in a land so cruel, she said this where I've got to be.
Taken in the night, her heart full of light, she said this where I've got to be.
How can I tell you, how could she be so young to know the truth in all her dreams.
She stands before them to hear them say, save your life and throw your faith away.
Mona With the Children send your love to me
All around the world we'll go dancing.
Mona With the Children send your love to me
Every precious moment you'll be dancing
Every precious moment we'll be free.
I can see her in my heart when the whole world is falling apart she said, this where I've got to be.
Captive in the light, a love that burns so bright, this where I've got to be.
When they asked her, what could she say, she said
You can't break my heart, you can't take my faith away
When they told her the price she'll have to pay
She said take my life, take it all the way, all the way.
Mona With the Children send your love to me
All around the world I see you dancing.
Mona With the Children send your love to me
Every precious moment you'll be dancing
Every precious moment you'll be free.
Mona With the Children send your love to me
All around the world our souls go dancing.
Mona With the Children you gave your life
All around the world we’ll go dancing
All around the world we’ll be free.
Mona With the Children send your love
All around the world souls are dancing.
Mona With the Children, send your love to me
All around the world I see you dancing, so pretty dancing.
Mona With the Children Mona send your love
All around the world we’ll go dancing.
Mona With the Children send your love to me
Every precious day, I’ll be dancing, I’ll be dancing.
