Naw Ruz

from Bahá’í Tunes · host Dr. Duane Varan

This is a song created to celebrate the Bahá’í New Year (Naw Ruz).  Producing the song was deeply moving for me as I studied and reflected on the Bahá’í Writings about Naw Ruz.  Although I haven't included any direct quotes from these Writings, you will see their influence in the lyrics.  The second verse was fun - conveying what spring represents (the Bahá’í New Year coincides with the start of spring in the Northern hemisphere).  My favorite part was getting the words vernal equinox into the song - that was a bit of a challenge.  The lyrics are mine but the music composition, voices and instruments are all AI.
