"I give to thee great gardens, with trees and vines in the temple of Atuma, I give to thee lands with olive trees in the city of On. I have furnished them with gardeners, and many men to make ready oil of Egypt for kindling the lamps of thy noble temple. I give to thee trees and wood, date palms, incense, and lotus, rushes, grasses, and flowers of every land, to set before thy fair face."
- Rameses III, 1155 BCE

Just One Mom

A Mother's Love Poem

Hundreds of dewdrops to greet the dawn,

Hundreds of bees in the purple clover,

Hundreds of butterflies on the lawn.

But only one mother the whole world over.

The only part of a mighty Mass that the twenty-year-old (!) composer thought worthy of preserving (the rest of the Mass was reconstructed from orchestral parts discovered in a Belgian attic in the early 1990s), Berlioz’s “Resurrexit” is surely the most stirring realization of Jesus’ resurrection in all of music. It also makes one realize again how revolutionary was Berlioz’s music; the Mass was written three years before Beethoven’s death and yet already sounds like a work of post-Beeethovenian Romanticism—though its being Berlioz’s music, it resembles no other composer’s work.



“Resurrexit” from the Messe Solennelle, by Hector Berlioz (1824)

Sissel Kyrkjeb� - Ave Maris Stella
https://youtu.be/0U0Ne-Yvv7o

This is a gorgeus perfomance by Sissel. Ave Maris Stella (Hail, O Star of the Ocean) is a plainsong Vespers hymn to the Virgin Mary. It is of uncertain origin and can be dated back at least as far as the eighth century.
It was especially popular in the Middle Ages and has been used by many composers as the basis of other compositions.

Andrea Bocelli, Laura Pausini - Dare To Live (HD) ft. Laura Pausini
https://youtu.be/zLmFEIksvh8

Andrea Bocelli- Dare To Live (Duet With Laura Pausini)

Versions: #1#2
Try looking at tomorrow not yesterday
And all the things you left behind
All those tender words you did not say
The gentle touch you couldn't find

In these days of nameless faces
There is no one truth but only pieces
My life is all i have to give

Dare to live until the very last
Dare to live forget about the past
Dare to live giving something of yourself to others
Even when it seems there's nothing more left to give

But if you see a human
In front of your entrance
Who sleeps wrapped in a box,
If you would listen to the world in the morning
Without the noise of the rain.
You are that one who can create with your voice,
You think with the thoughts of people,
Of the God who is just the God.

To live, no one has ever taught it,
To live, it's impossible to live without the past,
To live is beautiful even if you have never asked for.
It will be a song, someone will sing it.

Dare to live searching for the ones you love,
(Why, why, why, why are you not living tonight?)
Dare to live no one but we all,
(Why, why, why, why are you not living now?)
Dare to live until the very last,
(Why, why, why is the life not the life?)
Your life is all you have to give (Because)
You have not lived the life!

Dare to live until the very last,
(Why, why, why is the life not the life?)
Your life is all you have to give (Because)
You have never lived.

I will say no (I will say yes)
Say dare to live
Dare to live


Our DN Family of Friends - Blessings forever & ever.
Always, Carmen , Picasso & Pasha

House of Flying Daggers- Flowers In My Heart
Music: ''Lovers'' by Kathleen Battle with a music by Shigeru Umebayashi, a tilte song from the movie soundtrack

https://youtu.be/9pDrkDNuh_4

"The young May moon is beaming, love.
The glow-worm's lamp is gleaming, love.
How sweet to rove,
Through Morna's grove,
When the drowsy world is dreaming, love!
Then awake! -- the heavens look bright, my dear,
'Tis never too late for delight, my dear,
And the best of all ways
To lengthen our days
Is to steal a few hours from the night, my dear!"
- Thomas Moore, The Young May Moon



Mother
https://youtu.be/FUih7S4FKbs
"Mother"

You know I want the best for you
As you've always wanted for me
And though our eyes may look alike but
They don't see the same thing
Hurt made a great divide
I added to the pain
My way to survive was shutting you out
Oh I was just a child, I no longer recognize
And now I'm seeing you
Maybe the first time

Mother
You did the best you could, the best you can
I know you did the best you could, the best you can
Do you know you did the best you could, the best you can
Forgive me now, oh I understand

They say we turn into our parents
I guess we know now what they mean
We might be made of broken pieces
But that's not who we have to be
Your mother's mother taught her only how to love
From an empty fearful broken place
Oh you were just child taught to shoulder the blame
But you're a woman now
You can lift your face

'Cause mother
You did the best you could, the best you can
I know you did the best you could, the best you can
Do you know you did the best you could, the best you can
Forgive me now, oh I understand



Basket of hugs to all our dn family, Happy Week,.

And the sky is grey

On a winter's day
I'd be safe and warm
If I was in L.A.

H�l�ne Grimaud & Sol Gabetta - Piano and Violoncello - Duo (Trailer)
https://youtu.be/MNczOJVBhnQ

Every so often, a musical encounter sees a truly astonishing "musico-biological" process take place. The meeting of the pianist H�l�ne Grimaud and the cellist Sol Gabetta last summer at the Menuhin Festival in Gstaad was one such rare encounter. Two charismatic stars made music together: two performers who play with such a combination of passion and intelligence that time after time they made the classics sound as contemporary as if composed today.

From the inside out
And don't know what to do,
Remember love and friendship,
And warmth will come to you.”
