“Plantera i ditt hjärtas trädgård (Garden of thy Heart)” by Nora, Sasha & Ann-Sofie

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 Stockholm, Sweden with Nora Emadén, Sasha Semenova and Ann-Sofie Wensbo who sing “Plantera i ditt hjärtas trädgård (Garden of thy Heart)” in Swedish, from the Writings of Baha’u’llah.

This song was filmed and recorded in Stockholm, Sweden, October 2018, and was composed by Nora Emadén and Sara Vadeghani.

Lyrics & Quote

SWEDISH

O Vän!
Plantera i ditt hjärtas trädgård ej något annat än kärlekens ros och släpp ej taget om tillgivenhetens och längtans näktergal. Värdesätt kamratskapet med de rättfärdiga och undvik allt umgänge med de ogudaktiga.

Baha’u’llah

ENGLISH

O FRIEND! In the garden of thy heart plant naught but the rose of love, and from the nightingale of affection and desire loosen not thy hold. Treasure the companionship of the righteous and eschew all fellowship with the ungodly.

Baha’u’llah

Chords

Am, F, C, G
