There is a warmth in this performance that is unmatched.

[@imogencawrse9153]

A beautiful song, beautifully sung.

[@chesterz1]

Sublime.

[@saiserieht]

In these winter days,
now the light disguises itself,
let us bear in our hearts
and say confidentially to one another
what fills ourselves with inner light.
That which inflames mild ardor,
should burn on and on;
that which tenderly binds souls
and builds ghostly bridges
should be our soft password.
The wheel of time may roll,
but we hardly grasp it,
forgotten in the glow of the world.
On our island we would
dedicate day and night to blissful Love.
