lyrics

Image Of Existence
Music by Clive Bayley
Lyrics from a poem by Dr Javad Nurbakhsh

Come and be drowned, come and be drowned

Come and let us wash away the image of existence
And no longer speak of I and we
Come let all those thoughts drift away
Forget both worlds and be silent

Come but beware of the shame of knowing
Send those endless lines of learning from your head
Come so we can cast far away all things that may be said
And blind our eyes to all there is to see
We will be strangers to all and seem mad in eyes of rational men

Come and be drowned
Come we will empty ourselves of self
And leave behind the shame of I and we

Come and welcome un-fulfillment
For we do not suppose self desire to be the goal

Come but be aware the pain of knowing
Send those endless lines of learning from your head
Come so we can cast far away all things that may be said
And blind our eyes to all there is to see
We will be strangers to all
And seam mad in the eyes of rational men

Come and be drowned in the ocean of unity
Free from all thoughts of union and separation
As this world, is not even worth a grain of sand
Other than what is old and new it is nothing
