Old music

Many times I hear old music
and it’s fine,
it’s okay,
but it doesn’t move me

Yet other times...
when it’s done well
even if the language isn’t my own
and I haven’t read the translation,
the emotion can still be felt in the shape

I can hear some lovely voices singing a sad song
floating over the carefully chosen instruments
and it speaks...

even without knowing the words
the feeling shines through
and I can sit in the middle of it and soak it up
