When You Can't Sleep, Listen to This | The Moon on the Water | 1 Hour of Rumi Inspired Sufi Songs

For the nights when you can't sleep. The Moon on the Water is a one-hour journey of 14 original Sufi songs with English lyrics, inspired by the spirit of Rumi and the old image of the heart as a lake that shows the moon only when it grows still: awake at two in the morning, counting breaths instead of sheep, letting the silt settle, leaving tomorrow at the door, silver light on black water, and a soft goodnight to the moon. A gentle santur and a soft ney over quiet frame drum, warm strings and long drones. Calm the whole way through, with no dance beats, and slower and softer toward the end. Made for sleep, rest, prayer and quiet nights. 🎧 Best with headphones.
