Hive Open Mic ( #openmic ) is a global community of music lovers, for music fans and musicians. Each week is a live music invitation for expression and connection.
Happy to be back in action with a song from the heart. This one came from a spark of inspiration I felt one Christmas morning, sitting by the fireplace, playing on an old Flamenco guitar, filling the room with this heavenly music I hadn't heard before. It resonated deeply, presenting a message that continues to move me.
Because this song originated in the Christmas season, the chorus lines are influenced by “The Little Drummer Boy,” with the familiar vocables: parum pa pum pum. The lines in “The Voice” are similar, although they are expressions of ancient Sanskrit. “Om-mani-padme-hum” is a mantra with infinite interpretations, such as: Behold, the jewel in the lotus. “Karuna-hum” essentially means: Compassion is my nature.
The Voice
A song about joining the divine choir, being in universal harmony
Singing in the innermost
Calling all of us who listen
To listen and lend our voices
Om-mani-padme-hum om-mani-padme-hum
The heartstrings they are being strummed
Karuna-hum karuna-hum
Here now in the moment
Calling all of us who focus
To focus and lend our voices
Guiding high in the heavens
Calling all of us who wonder
To wonder and lend our voices
Calling the star people
Calling all of us who sparkle
To sparkle and lend our voices
