Sufi mystic, wrote this poem centuries ago,
but its message of unity and acceptance is still
potent today. Hayes uses the Lydian mode in

a haunting melody of great lyricism which starts
quietly, builds to a climactic moment, and then
is at rest as if to say, "We have found the field of
common ground." Instrumental parts include flute,
oboe, clarinet, bassoon, horn 1 and 2, percussion
1 and 2, harp, piano, and strings.
