In memory of Russell Garcia, a jazz musician who recently passed away, here’s Nightingale of Paradise composed by him and his wife Gina:
Nightingale of Paradise, you sing of love,
Flooding all the world with light,
Heedless men hear not your song of life eternal,
They’re lost in the dark of night.Nightingale of Paradise, you sing of joy,
Flooding all the world with love,
Singing out your song of peace and brotherhood,
With hope for all from above.
