Description

A lyrical journey opens on a tribute to a beloved mother and the gentle guidance of a master poet, slipping the listener into the dream‑like realm of the “Mountain of Amethysts.” The opening verses swirl with vivid images of spiralling trumpets, glittering topazes and violet amethysts, inviting a sense of wonder that feels both ancient and intimate. As the narrator’s voice traces the mountain’s twisting peaks, it hints at hidden alchemical powers and a quiet, persistent love for the melancholy “boirines” that gather at sunset.

In the second part the poem deepens its meditation on balance and light, comparing the mountain to a silent pyramid that reflects sky‑blue and golden horizons. It juxtaposes the known world of snow‑capped ranges with the mysterious, almost forgotten heights that only the heart can truly see. Listeners will be carried through a tapestry of nature, memory, and subtle spirituality, all rendered in a rich, musical cadence that feels like a softly spoken prayer.
