A collection of songs for each of the Hidden Words by Bahá’u’lláh, arranged by Mark Moran and created with the help of AI (Suno.com)

This collection is still being developed and is not ready for wide-spread distribution (i.e. posting to social media), but you are welcome to listen to it or play it for your friends/family.

I add a few songs to the library each week so you’ll see gradual updates over time. I should be able to get through all of Part 1 (From the Arabic) sometime in the fall. And maybe Part 2 another 4-6 months after that. (In other words, this is a long term project.)

My main motivation for doing this is to have some Baha’i songs that are upbeat, uplifting, and could make a good road trip playlist. So, there are a variety of genres from pop to gospel to blues to r&b. 

Thanks for listening!

"O Son of Spirit!
The best beloved of all things in My sight is Justice; turn not away therefrom if thou desirest Me, and neglect it not that I may confide in thee. By its aid thou shalt see with thine own eyes and not through the eyes of others, and shalt know of thine own knowledge and not through the knowledge of thy neighbor. Ponder this in thy heart; how it behooveth thee to be. Verily justice is My gift to thee and the sign of My loving-kindness. Set it then before thine eyes."

CAN’T TAKE THE MUD OUT
A smile on his face, a shine on his shoes 
Where’s my honey goin’, goin’ to 			Male lyric: where’s her honey
Weekend rolls around and I should know  		         she should know
Even if he’s late, he’s gonna come home

Can’t take the mud out of the Mississippi 
Can’t take the bend out of the road
Can’t take the playin’ out of my man 		Male lyric: out of her man
Can’t take the lovin’ him out of my bones			        out of her bones

Hangin’ with the band down at the blues bar
You can hear the soul comin’ from his guitar
Another pretty woman sittin’ in the front row
Givin’ him the eye, yeah, I should know 

Can’t take the mud out of the Mississippi 
Can’t take the bend out of the road
Can’t take the playin’ out of my man 
Can’t take the lovin’ him out of my bones, out of my bones 

One of these nights he’ll sneak in the back door  
And be surprised to find that there’s no more 
Me waitin’ for him keepin’ the bed warm 
A goodbye note, on the pillow  

Can’t take the mud out of the Mississippi 
Can’t take the bend out of the road
Can’t take the playin’ out of my man 
Can’t take the lovin’ him, gotta take the lovin’ him out of my bones

He ain’t gonna change..yeah, I should know 
Gotta move on, yeah, I gotta go

Can't Take the Mud Out
