Baha’i Blog’s “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 Washington DC with Shirin Esmaeili who sings “Everlasting Beauty (La Belleza Sempiterna)” in Spanish and in English, from the Writings of Baha’u’llah. Melody composed by Isabel Miranda and Shirin Esmaeili.

You can also watch the recording of this song on Baha’i Blog’s YouTube channel here:
