As a proudly Australian initiative, we’re excited to showcase a collection of Australian stories, music, tributes and more.n,
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 Perth, Australia with Alia Golestani who sings “O Son of Love” based on a passage from the Writings of Baha’u’llah.
This song was filmed and recorded in Perth, Australia in December 2023.
O SON OF LOVE!
Thou art but one step away from the glorious heights above and from the celestial tree of love. Take thou one pace and with the next advance into the immortal realm and enter the pavilion of eternity. Give ear then to that which hath been revealed by the Pen of Glory.
