Anol sheh lay konnud de ne um {shaddai}
Flavum nom de leesh
Ham de nam um das
La um de Flavne

Un di-I lay na day

Mee di nu ku
La la da pa da le na da na
Ve va da pa da le na la dumda
Anol shalom

Lof flesh lay nof ne
Nom de lis

The first part of these lyrics seems to be in an unknown language, possibly created for the song. The second part appears to be a mix of Latin and made-up words. The overall impression is that the song speaks of peace and tranquility, and the importance of coming together as a community to create a harmonious environment. The way the words are sung also conveys a sense of longing and yearning for something better.
The repetition of certain phrases reinforces the sense of unity and shared purpose. The use of made-up words adds to the mysticism of the song, as if the meaning is beyond what can be conveyed by ordinary language. The song is beautifully arranged and brings together a variety of elements, including soaring vocals and a full orchestra. It’s a powerful and emotional piece of music that evokes a range of feelings, from sadness to hope and joy.
