I am trying to find a poem that was used in the film.
Does anyone know who did it and the EXACT wording?
Thanks
There are a couple of versions but this is the copy of the one I have...
Deep peace of the running wave to you.
Deep peace of the flowing air to you.
Deep peace of the quiet earth to you.
Deep peace of the shining stars to you.
Deep peace of the infinite peace to you.
MY DAUGHTER AND I WATCHED THIS FILM TOGETHER LONG BEFORE SHE MET HER HUSBAND. WE WERE SO TAKEN WITH THE BLESSING, SHE DID SOME RESEARCH AND IT ENDED UP IN HER WEDDING PROGRAM PRINTED AS YOU SEE IT BELOW.
Deep peace of the running waves to you.
Deep peace of the flowing air to you.
Deep peace of the smiling stars to you.
Deep peace of the quiet earth to you.
Deep peace of the watching shepherds to you.
Deep peace of the Son of Peace to you.
--Gaelic Blessing
I have a song by Donovan on a CD call Sutras that has this poem set to music. I believe the cut is "Deep Peace."
shareI found the whole Blessing on the website www.Scottish-Wedding-Dreams.com
