“Áldott az a pont (Blessed Is the Spot)” by Orsolya & Raymond

Baha’i Blog 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 Budapest, Hungary with Orsolya Pálinkás and Raymond Switzer who sing “Áldott az a pont (Blessed Is the Spot)” in Hungarian and English based on the Writings of Baha’u’llah. 

This song was filmed and recorded in Budapest, Hungary in April 2023.

LYRICS/QUOTE IN HUNGARIAN:

Áldott az a pont, az a ház, az a hely, és a város, és a szív, és a hegy is, és a szárnyék, és a lak, és a völgy, és a táj, és a víz, és a sziget, és a rét is, hol Isten nevét említék, és zengék dicséretét.

LYRICS/QUOTE IN ENGLISH:

Blessed is the spot, and the house, and the place, and the city, and the heart, and the mountain, and the refuge, and the cave, and the valley, and the land, and the sea, and the island, and the meadow where mention of God hath been made, and His praise glorified.
