Kashmir
Led Zeppelin Featuring Ofra Haza Lyrics

Oh, let the sun beat down upon my face
I want to feel the warmth of the sun on my face, to feel the life-giving energy flow through me.

And stars fill my dream
I dream of the vastness of the universe, of traveling to distant stars and experiencing the wonder of creation.

I'm a traveler of both time and space
I am not tied to one particular place or era, I am free to explore the mysteries of the universe throughout all of time.

To be where I have been
I am always looking forward to the next adventure, but I also appreciate where I have been and the experiences that have made me who I am.

To sit with elders of the gentle race
I take counsel from those who have lived long and seen much, from those who have wisdom and kindness in their hearts.

This world has seldom seen
The world is full of wonder, but it is also full of pain and suffering. I seek to find the beauty and light that shines through the darkness.

They talk of days for which they sit and wait
There are those who have waited for years to see a better world, to see justice and peace prevail.

All will be revealed
Eventually, the truth will be known and all will be made clear.

Talk in song from tongues of lilting grace
There is a beauty and power in language and music that can touch the heart and soul like nothing else.

Sounds caress my ear
The sounds of music and poetry can be soothing and comforting, like a warm embrace.

And not a word I heard could I relate
Sometimes the meaning of a song or poem is beyond words, beyond explanation. It simply touches something deep within us that we can't quite put into words.

The story was quite clear
Even without understanding the words, I could sense the emotion and meaning behind the music. It spoke to me in a way that was undeniable.

Oh, baby, I been blind
I have been ignorant of the truth, blind to the beauty and wonder of the world around me.

Oh, yeah, mama, there ain't no denyin'
I can't deny the truth that I have seen, the beauty and wonder that has been revealed to me.

Oh, ooh yes, I been blind
I see now that I have been blind, that there is so much more to the world than I ever imagined.

Mama, mama, ain't no denyin', no denyin'
I can't deny what I have seen and experienced, the truth that has been revealed to me.

All I see turns to brown
The world can be a harsh and desolate place, filled with pain and suffering. It is easy to become disillusioned and lose hope.

As the sun burns the ground
The heat of the sun can be punishing, wearing down everything in its path. It can be a metaphor for the harshness of life.

And my eyes fill with sand
It is easy to become overwhelmed and buried in the chaos and turmoil of the world.

As I scan this wasted land
Even in the midst of chaos and ruin, we must keep searching for meaning and hope, for the beauty and wonder that still exists.

Try to find, try to find the way I feel
I am searching for meaning and connection, trying to find a way to make sense of the world and my place in it.

Oh, pilot of the storm who leaves no trace
I am searching for someone or something to guide me through the turmoil and chaos of the world, to help me find my way.

Like sorts inside a dream
It is as if I am searching for something that is almost unreal, like something out of a dream or a myth.

Leave the path that led me to that place
I need to break free from the old patterns and ways of thinking that have led me to this place of despair and disillusionment.

Yellow desert stream
This could be a metaphor for hope and renewal, a source of life and vitality in the midst of harsh and desolate surroundings.

My shangri la beneath the summer moon
I am searching for a place of peace and beauty, a place where I can find rest and renewal.

I will return again
Even if I find this place of peace and beauty, I know that I will have to leave it and return to the chaos of the world.

As the dust that floats high in June
Life is fleeting and ephemeral, like the dust that floats on the breeze in the month of June.

We're moving through Kashmir
Kashmir could be a metaphor for life, with all its beauty and pain, its hope and despair. We are all moving through this life, trying to find our way.

Oh, father of the four winds fill my sails
I am calling out to a greater power, asking for guidance and strength as I navigate the stormy waters of life.

Cross the sea of years
Life is a journey that spans many years and experiences, with many challenges and obstacles to overcome.

With no provision but an open face
I am facing this journey with nothing but my own strength and determination, with nothing to rely on but my own courage.

Along the straits of fear
The path ahead is filled with danger and uncertainty, with many fears that threaten to overwhelm me.

Oh, when I want, when I'm on my way, yeah
I am free to choose my own path, to follow my own desires and dreams.

And my feet wear my fickle way to stay
I am following a path that is constantly changing, adapting to the challenges and obstacles that I encounter.

Ooh, yeah yeah, oh, yeah yeah,
I am filled with passion and determination, ready to face whatever challenges lie ahead.

But I'm down oh, yeah yeah, oh, yeah
Even with all my passion and determination, there are times when I feel overwhelmed and defeated.

Yeah, but I'm down, so down
I am struggling with doubt and despair, feeling the weight of the world on my shoulders.

Ooh, my baby, oh, my baby
Even in the midst of despair, there is still love and connection that can give us strength and hope.

Let me take you there
I want to share this journey with someone else, to find companionship and support as we navigate the stormy seas of life.

Come on, oh let me take you there
Together, we can face the challenges of life, finding hope and renewal in the midst of despair and uncertainty.
