There is something strange about this song, something magical !

[SIRCAM]

The woman singing in Sanskrit describes Lakshmi, goddess of fortune and beauty, always smiling, bestower of fortune, within Shaktism Lakshmi is considered a Mother Goddess.
The Latin stanza refers to Jesus, see reference Isaiah 9:6: "For to us a child is born, to us a Son is given, and the government will be on His shoulders", The Son of God.

Finally, the man singing in English, tries to unify both beliefs, describing a final "being", the one that guides us and is our light, then we have a Mother Goddess and a son of God united, he describes them almost poetically "You were the rain, you were the sun, but I needed both, cause I needed you ". This final being is described in a very humble way as the child within us, it should be noted that in both beliefs they emphasize that salvation lies in being as innocent as a child.

For to us a child is born, to us a son is given; and the government shall be upon his shoulder, and his name shall be called Wonderful Counselor, Mighty God, Everlasting Father, Prince of Peace.
Isaiah 9:6

Currently I m in that position in my life where I can't take decision alone. I listen spiritual songs before starting anything. This one got my attention ❤

[LEDC]

This will be the song my bride walks down the aisle to. Just as the English section hits. The perfect end to an epic story. The perfect beginning to a new one. God willing.

प्रसन्नवदनां सौभाग्यदां भाग्यदां
हस्ताभ्यां अभयप्रदां मणिगणैर्नानाविधैर्भूषिताम् ।

[Moshe_Akiva]

Pasan los años y sigo aquí. El tiempo se detuvo y no sé que pasó después. El Niño sigue ahí, llora a veces. A veces ríe... y nunca deja de recordar. Escuchando en 2023

[genoskwa]

Totally crazy about this song. I love playing this over and over. Enigma should make longer version.

I just finished school back in the 90s I didn’t know what to do in my country Ecuador. Then I knew that sometimes you don’t belong where you’re born. Here I am USA is my new home. Enigma and specially this song gave me the courage I needed to get out of there and the believe in a different place that could become as loved as the natural one. God bless them always.
