I have been posting videos of Ridvan songs in different languages for the 12 days of Ridvan! Below is a photo of the schedule for the rest of the Ridvan songs and when they will be published on youtube.
Yesterday I posted a Ridvan song in Swedish and below is the next video for the Ridvan song in Portuguese sung by talented musician, Eric Harper. He has recorded guitar on several of my pieces before and has a mesmerizing voice! Enjoy!
The following languages have already been posted:
Ridvan song in English
Ridvan song in Arabic
Ridvan song in Japanese
Ridvan song in Swedish
I look forward to sharing the next video on the blog tomorrow (every morning Beijing time 7am). Kindly share with friends who speak Portuguese.

Beautiful Elika, I am forwarding to my mom and friends
Thank you dear Kimberly! Look out tomorrow for the Spanish version. 🙂
I posted this on the Japanese version of the Youtube site with this verse, which I will report here:
Wow, this is such a beautiful rendition of the verse. Thanks to Elika and Angela for this gift to us all on the occasion of Ridvan. It is uplifting to our hearts. Thank you so much. It’s a treasure.
Thank you Nicholas! Much appreciated. 🙂
