Текст песни Unity, Op. 26 (Alissa Firsova) с переводом

In the high Alps

Where the air purifies the lungs

The altitude clears the head

The view awes the Spirit

And the effort exhilarates the whole Being;

There you may search for the Absolute

In the low Rub al Khali Desert

Where the heat slows the rhythm of the breath

The emptiness turns the mind inward

The visible is often mirage

And the stillness unifies the inner and outer worlds;

There you may find out who you really are

On the rough North Atlantic seas

Where the wind, salt and movement excite the respiration

Where the attention is alert and intense

And the eye follows and seeks to discern the shifting horizon

While the constant rise and fall troubles the Soul;

There you may work to master the probabilities of action and interaction

Mountains, dunes and waves

All form and transform

Though at different speeds in different spaces

And Absolute, self and action

May all be revealed

As part of an even greater Whole that transcends

What we think we know of Being, time and space;

And having seen this with your inner eye

You may enter the radiant sun-filled garden

Where the sedentary, rainbow-colored flowers exude their multiple perfumes

And the flitting, agitated birds chant forever their infinite panoply of song

And the trees generate succulent fruits while raising their branches to ever

higher skies;

There, with the one who, like you, has traversed the threefold path

There, with the one you love

You may unite together with the All

And rediscover

Here on earth

The purity of Paradise
