A track, part of an online album by Chinmaya Dunster, ‘Sat-Sang: Chinmaya Dunster’s Songs’
I remember this song coming to me almost complete on a train from Bombay to Pune in 1985. This version was recorded in Hamburg later that year, with Gros Ngolle on bass and a wonderful Iraqi ney and accordion player I bumped into on the street. I added Swedish singer Ellika Hansen on vocals in Maui the following year.
For those who dare to love
Those who dare to dream
Those who dare to feel the pain
For those who dare to risk
Those who dare to lose
They only stand to gain
For those who dare to face
Their fragility
They are beyond all praise and blame
They walk with their feet on air
They make brightness out of dark
They look for beauty everywhere
They make a world apart
They are the artists of the heart
For those who dare to laugh
Those who dare to cry
The deeper their tears
The brighter their smiles
For those who dare to trust
Those who dare to share
With empty hands they receive
For those who dare to die
Flow the way life goes
They live this mystery
Those who dare to dream
Face reality
Those who dare to love
Let go of the past
They are the artists of the heart
For those who dare to laugh
Those who dare to cry
The deeper their tears
The brighter their smiles
For those who dare to trust
Those who dare to share
With empty hands they receive
For those who dare to die
Flow the way life goes
They live this mystery
They walk with their feet on air
They make brightness out of dark
They look for beauty everywhere
They make a world apart
They are the artists of the heart
