This fantastic composition is the ending of the Gates of Delirium (inspired by Tolstoy's war and peace) from the album Relayer.

Yes is a British progressive rock band known for its conceptual albums in the early years which emphasized spirituality( through lyrics that sometimes had no rhyme at all), at times depicting the battle between Good and Evil with masterful compositions. This song (Soon) is the aftermath of the epic cosmic battle, a prayer for peace.

The Gates of Delirium is 27 minutes long( The live version) It was released in 1974. This performance is on a DVD recorded in Netherlands in 2002.

Soon oh soon the light

Pass within and soothe the endless night

And wait here for you

Our reason to be here

Soon oh soon the time

All we move to gain will reach and calm

Our heart is open

Our reason to be here

Long ago, set into rhyme

Soon oh soon the light

Ours to shape for all time, ours the right

The sun will lead us

Our reason to be here

Soon oh soon the light

Ours to shape for all time, ours the right

The sun will lead us

Our reason to be here

Dear truthseeker9

Thanks for the encouragement. I would like to do more from the progressive rock era and finish it with postmodern evolution of the genera.
 
I feel the works of contemporary Iranian masters are widely known, not presenting their works, I hope, is not viewed as  disrespect on my part.

Let me know if you like more work from Banan, and by association those of Khaleghi, Rahi, and Mahjoobi.

 

All the best,

Amir
