The Icaro We Never Thought We’d Share
A Doorway to Infinity through love, freedom, and strength.
Born in an Ayahuasca ceremony, this icaro is always sung in its original German poetry.
Here is a recording as well as an attempt at its English translation, so you may reconnect with its essence.
Beloved plant of the forest, you bring the light.
Dream from another world that never forgets you.
The path ahead of you, you are inventing it.
Give us courage and confidence.
Your Self comes, and you are ready.
The warrior cries out for freedom.
Life and death are now the same.
Those who do not know this yet: take your time.
So many long for eternity,
yet only a few are ready.
Come into the present, for only then do you have time
for your gaze into eternity.
Who is letting go of long-carried burdens
walks liberated, and becomes love’s guest.
When will you come and become who you have always been?
Be the guest of love.
Freed from life and death, undivided,
in the bliss of all-aloneness.
Ally spirit from eternity,
you are with us, and the time has come.
Cradled in the mother of all worlds you lie here.
Strengthened by the father of all times you awaken.
You imagine a life free from sorrow,
free for your work in infinity.
War, father of all things, is driving you.
Peace, mother of all things, embracing you.
Consciousness, child of both, is free and awake.
Come, and become love’s guest as well.
War, father of all things, drives you forward.
Peace, mother of all things, wraps you in her arms.
Consciousness, child of both, is free and awake.
Come, be the guest of love.
