Like bees, drawn by the sweetness in the alien air they touch and taste the flowers on the whispering ground Sirens at the seaside, collecting the seed of life Imaginations of the strangest kind grow into colourful atoms as the sea, the clouds and the sky move in fantastic rhythms Sirens at the seaside, collecting the seed of life The murmurs and the stirrings gather in their ruby eyes As the summer comes close the evenings grow longer and longer into the night at the seaside As the summer comes close the evenings grow long The wind in the storm inside, your mind Sirens at the seaside, collecting the seeds of life

The earth itself, seams to declare that happiness, will always be there shadows are passing, flights of small rain the sun will arise, again and again. Believe, Believe The stars flashes by, over the sea Clouds from the west wind, trembles in me Shattered mirrors, are sparkling in the sand Like every tree and flower understand Believe, Believe, Believe, Believe The earth itself, seams to declare that happiness, will always be there The stars flashes by, over the sea Clouds from the west wind, trembles in me

I crossed a wide grassy glade, on which were circles of brighter green I was struck with the silence, no birds sang, no insects hum Not a living creature crossed my way The environment seemed to be asleep, star constellations, and wear in sleep an air of expectation of conscious mystery a star constellation, planet earth, we are here, you and I Then I remember that night is the fairies ́ day, crystals Everything is sleeping now The children of the night wake when mortals dream until the ebb-tide comes, and the waves sink away, back into the ocean of the dark of conscious mystery the colours, the crystals, star constellations, mother earth, love Numberless sounds came out of the unknown dusk oppressing the heart with an atmosphere, of dreamy love and longing The odours of night arose, bathed me in sorrow as if the plants had been watered with bygone tears of conscious mystery crystals, colours, teardrops we walk on the earth, all together, through the forests and lakes, like a giant, like elves, the crystals, the star constellation, Ahh, see, as far as the eye can see Star Constellations in Conscious Mystery

Elves 05:46
We dance, through the open field in the grass, in the sun, like elves Hidden people lives underground Endless colours in forests, unknown in the sun, like elves They fertilize the ferns and trees A green reverb for their melancholy seeds like elves, yeah in the grass, in the sun like elves, in the fog, like elves, in the fog Hidden people lives underground, Endless colours in forests, unknown They fertilize the ferns and trees A green reverb for their melancholy seeds like elves in the grass, in the sun, in the sun, in the sun melancholy seeds melancholy seeds elves, yeah, elves, in the grass, in the sun

We gather in the forest glade to hear and see and feel again the forest breathings, the blood moon, the bees Deep forest glade, long tall trees The forest pine got eyes and ears Following the map we draw, the map we drew together with guidance from the elves and gnomes the wild wood spirits, the forest feast Gatherings, wizards, the level place The forest got eyes and ears together always, forest forever We found this place to level Breath, Breath, Breath It comes not easily There ́s a voice inside this enchanted and released is telling us to be Breath, Breath, Breath The creature inside the tree whispering, the roots under this tree The roots under the tree The forest fantasy Trees, Trees, Trees The trees and the bees, a forest fantasy Trees, Trees, Trees As far as the eye can see, Enchanted and released The energy we feel, The forest fantasy Trees, Trees, Trees...As far as the eye can see

You wander in circles through the past A deep forest dream appear at last visiting your hidden stash the zone where the present and future birds have found seasons smoking leaves of grass picking up the frozen trash winds from far bring unpleasant smell pollution from the factories of hell singing with the blackbirds into the night sleeping in a tree outside the heights waiting for the early morning brights wander through the fields of frozen light searching for some food to eat what ever you can find drinking from the silver moonlight well dancing over icy waters and lakes into the mist you don ́t know where you are at last Deep Forest Dream, Deep Forest Dream Deep Forest Dream, Deep Forest Dream A deep forest dream appears at last visiting your secret hidden stash the zone where the present and future birds are found I ́m wandering through the fields of frozen light, so bright Deep forest dream, deep forest dream Deep forest dream, where nothing, where nothing is what it seams Deep Forest Dream. Deep Forest Dream Deep forest dream, where nothing, where nothing is what it seams

Part 1 Chlorophyll Drops Deep inside, the primeval forest In the hidden zone where we can breath again Collecting the light, embrace the night Drinking from the chlorophyll drops It’s what we need to feel and just to be Where our souls can find the long awaited peace... at last The forest light, the longest nights Where hidden treasures can be found Part 2 The Primeval Forest In the after image of a dreams open window There are spirits in the old pine forest A pair of ravens circling the crown On our way to the garden A Ritual for the Ancient Bee Is a Ritual for the Ancient Bees Black as Ravens and White as Snow Black as Ravens and White as Snow Light a candle by the river green Disturb the surface of the water spirits Like prayer flags spreading the words Into the wind, into the core Lines of nerves on moulded leaves Withered stones hang in the air, Life is smiling in slow motion All this hum in wakeful ears Part 3 The Green Reverb A Ritual for the Ancient Bees We gather in the secret glade To meet again, where honey can be made We found the Green Reverb by the Beehive Trees A Ritual for the Ancient Bees Drums inside - to eardrums The heart beat well to insects hum Well of music, well of night See and hear the endless light Colours made of Sound Colours made of Sound

We travel through the landscapes to the sea To places we created along the way Places that we found on our trip Through the soundscapes in our minds on this Gothic Ship We travel through the landscapes to the sea To places we created along the way, Places that we found on our trip Through the soundscapes, in our minds on this Gothic Ship The Acoustic Sea dwells over green ocean fields Winds whisper the smell of sounds from overseas Old birds fly higher than the sun Young birds guide the way to the wishing well When the Gothic Sea waves roar and the seagulls yell We travel through the landscapes to the sea to places we created along the way, along the way The Gothic Sea, remember me The Gothic Sea, remember me

about

The poetic vision behind The Green Reverb is to evoke the spirits of the earth, to fight back environmental destruction, and like shamans communicate with the spirit or the mind of the planet, to heal, to survive... to be in communication with nature and all of it ́s creatures.

”The Creatures inside the Tree, Whispering, The Roots under this Tree, Enchanted and Released, Connected to this Tree, Tree, Tree, Trees, The Energy we feel, The Forest Fantasies, As far as the Eyes can See” from Enchanted Tree - Cosmic Garden Project

Nature, Imagination, Dreams are sources of inspiration in the project. A surreal landscape takes shape. We are traveling, exploring unknown territories. The world we live in have many dimensions apart from the obvious reality. Dreams and imagination create worlds that are sometimes as real. Environmental awareness is in the core of this project. The green force of the world and it´s healing powers was called Viriditas by the twelfth-century visionary Hildegard von Bingen. Viriditas is also the title of a song on Älgarnas Trädgård ́s debut album, the first song that Söderqvist wrote and published in 1972. It seams that life is not a straight line, but a spiral where ideas come back in a slightly different way through time and space.

"Look at the pattern this seashell makes. The dappled whorl, curving inward to infinity. That's the shape of the universe itself. There's a constant pressure, pushing toward pattern. A tendency in matter to evolve into ever more complex forms. It's a kind of pattern gravity, a holy greening power we call viriditas, and it is the driving force in the cosmos. Life, you see." from Green Mars by Kim Stanley Robinson
