Devotional music from various religions/cultures
Hi friends,
As a personal interest, I have explored the fields of Devotional singing. J J
I have found that devotional singing exist in all religions and cultures.
When I hear a song of a devotional nature, the poems of Reknown Indian Poet Rabindranath Tagore (1861 – 1941) came into mind : ) : )
“When thou commandest me to sing
it seems that my heart would break with pride;
and I look to thy face, and tears come to my eyes.
All that is harsh and dissonant in my life melts into one sweet harmony –
and my adoration spreads wings like a glad bird on its flight across the sea.
I know thou takest pleasure in my singing.
I know that only as a singer I come before thy presence.
I touch by the edge of the far spreading wing of my song thy feet
which I could never aspire to reach.
Drunk with the joy of singing I forget myself and call thee friend who art my lord. “
……….
To promote appreciation of devotional music from different religions/cultures, I’ll share some devotional music from various cultures. [I’ve enjoyed all of them. They are the best I’ve heard so far : ] : ) ]

Cello song
Cello song
The Cello sings of a deep song,
A song of suffering, a lament of the downtrodden,
a Reminiscence of the past .....
It always draws out the compassion within me &
reminds me of the difficult periods of mankind.
[e.g. war, femine, disaster etc.]
Alas, How many difficulties has man gone through,
and how much is the suffering in the world :( :(
.......
When my heart become insensitive and unforgiving towards someone,
I would listen to the cello.
The Cello would request me to Consider.
Consider, the situation of the other person,
Consider, the family, the work, the pressure,
Consider, the blood, the sweat, the tear,
& Consider the many twist and turns in a fellow fella's life....
The heart would melt and the offending party would be seen as
just a person committing the same errors that I had committed before.
We all error at times.
Every saint has a past, and every sinner has a future.
The sage's heart bore no malice & hatred,
but a silent compassion,
& a deep sorrow for the error of mankind.

Good music album: Northern Lights
Aye, me fellow countryman :):)
I deem it natural that good fellas have a good ear
and would appreciate fair music :):)
Thus it is that this humble person
dare venture to recommend an album,
that is of calm & peaceful temperament,
and of the finest quality. :):)
The album that capture me hearts delight
is named "Northern Light"by Steve Coulter and Harris Moore.
It is an enchanting album that
blends celtic harp, English horns, HapperDulcimer etc
[all the traditional instruments ]
into a fine and generous assembly.
The music teleports one,
into a magical realm,
where goodness is natural,
and good manners are abound.
It is a reminiscence of good 'O English grace,
and brought to mind pictures of gentlemen and
fair maidens.
strolling across the streets,or going about their daily life. :):)
Most of the pieces are merry,
with a few catchy,
and a few of lamentation.
The pieces that I like the most are
"Busker's Dream", "Pyramid in the Woods""Carolan's Rumble to Cashel"
"Sheep Under the snow" & "The Spiral Dance"
[Even the names of the pieces sound beautiful:)]
Once you listen to it,
it would take away all your sorrows and anxiety,
and return to you, a peaceful temperament.
You would find yourself thinking.
Truly, Music should be that good :):)
Thus if you have some time,
me fellow countrymen,
do drop in to your nearest sambawang music store,
and ask for a copy of "Northern Light"
[Produce By Orange Music. Price : $18.90]
It would bring
a peace in demeanor,
a brightness in spirit,
& a gladness in the heart.
Enjoy :) :) :)
Bringing you,
all that I find good in life.
