Rumi Poetry & Sufi Music for Deep Sleep | 2 Hours of Calm Songs by the Moonlit Sea (The Shore)

The Shore. One quiet night by a moonlit sea, told in 30 original Sufi-inspired songs with English lyrics and short spoken passages from Rumi: the tide at dusk, a night of longing by the waves, the deep stillness of the open sea, and the calm water at dawn. Warm oud, a crying kamancheh, soft ney flute, ambient pads and gentle waves stay calm from the first song to the last, with no dance beats, so you can rest the whole way through. Made for sleep, meditation, reading and long quiet nights. 🎧 Best with headphones. English lyrics and the Rumi passages are in the subtitles (CC).
