A song for Allah.

The Glastonbury Baha'i choir Perform in the 14th century Abbot's kitchen of Glastonbury abbey, Somerset, England. Sept. 2007,
A song for Allah, and for Baha'u'llah, the founder of Baha'i.

Allah!! It is of no consequence whether you are a Muslim, a Jew, a Buddhist or a Christian of any variety; you too can be a Baha'i.
A great religion of unity for all, and contrary to the link to a conversation at the bottom of the video, Baha'i discriminates against nobody.

This video is also on my Myspace page with slightly better visual quality:

**This is one of my earliest videos; I would have made this differently now I've more experience.

No lyrics?

Alas, as you probably noticed, the acoustics here are rather echoey, and words hard to hear.

I think they are singing parts of this song in Farsi, the native tongue of the founder of Baha'i. I have contacted Catherine, the young lady conducting and talking here, to see if she can supply actual words to this piece. She has relocated to London, so I don't know how long it will take for her to get back to me.
