“Fire of Thy Love” by Yasmin, Sarah, Nava & Sahar

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 Vancouver, Canada with Yasmin Vahedi, Sarah Mohebiany, Sahar Zandieh and Nava Taghvai who sing “Fire of Thy Love” based on a prayer by Abdu’l-Baha.

This song was filmed and recorded in Vancouver, Canada, January 2017.

Lyrics & Quote

O my Lord! O my Lord! This is a lamp lighted by the fire of Thy love and ablaze with the flame which is ignited in the tree of Thy mercy. O my Lord! Increase his enkindlement, heat and flame, with the fire which is kindled in the Sinai of Thy Manifestation. Verily, Thou art the Confirmer, the Assister, the Powerful, the Generous, the Loving.

Abdu’l-Baha

O my Lord!
Increase his enkindlement,

in the Sinai of Thy Manifestation.
Verily, Thou art
the Confirmer, the Assister, the Powerful,
the Generous, the Loving.

Randomly bursting into song is a daily occurrence for Jordan, something which his friends find both hilarious and terrifying, however, for their own survival, they have grown accustomed to acts of randomness. Growing up in both the Czech Republic and Australia, and looking like he’s from neither, Jordan took to creating Youtube videos from a young age, the intention of his content is to make people happy and hopefully spread some positivity juice. He is now studying Media in Melbourne Australia, and singing for his classmates. (he really does not sing that much)
