Poems of Narad

Is There a Music?

Is there a music to the listening ear
Unrecognized as ether to the eye,
Is there a sound that every sound contains
Whose music guides our human destiny?

Is there an ode divine we cannot hear
Of which our lives are but a brief refrain,
Is there a Singer of celestial song
Whose music can assuage our human pain

And carry us upon its silver waves,
Melt a frozen heart or move a star,
Refashion us to sacred harmonies
That we may become what we truly are.
