Leonard Cohen - Listen To The Hummingbird Lyrics






Listen to the hummingbird
Whose wings you cannot see
Listen to the hummingbird
Don't listen to me

Listen to the butterfly
Whose days but number three
Listen to the butterfly
Don't listen to me

Listen to the mind of God
Which doesn't need to be
Listen to the mind of God
Don't listen to me

Listen to the hummingbird
Whose wings you cannot see
Listen to the hummingbird
Don't listen to me

    I was just transported to another place!
    I'm so thankful Leonard left this for us all.
    Especially for those like me, who wasn't at a wisdom yet to appreciate his art while he was still here. We still had new poetry to discover and be graced with.

    Even his unused lyrics, his alternate lyrics, his unfinished poems and songs are masterpieces that would be considered the pinnacle of the craft by most other artists. Sleep well my friend.

  11. L.... R....

    I will always hear you speaking through the heart of God...you were not God, nobody is or can be, but you brought me closer to his creation and my limitations through your wisdom and talent; you always wanted to set slaves free.♥️

    I designed Leonard's hummingbird. Belowis a link to an article I wrote about it and my thoughts to its meaning "The hummingbird uses enormous amounts of energy and is in constant search for sustenance to maintain the life force it needs to fly. The soul is the same. Constant searching for nectar in this world to give it strength, keep it alive, to allow it to fly and be free. And the soul is also true royalty, hence the crown. Pity the poor soul denied its nourishment. Hallelujah for the nourished soul." https://allanshowalter.com/2019/05/17/leonard-cohens-hummingbird-a-guest-post-by-dianne-v-lawrence/

    How am I just learning about this posthumous album today? Now I've listened over and over, in tears throughout. This is easily my favorite Leonard work in some time. I miss him, I miss him so much. Thank you, Adam, and all collaborators for producing this most fitting of masterworks. It's pure Leonard at his absolute best.

  32. g.... s....

    beautiful ending, listen to your heart the mind of god

  36. c.... ....

    Thank you Leonard

  37. P.... D....

    To think that the spectre of death was hurrying near and yet he devoted his last days and hours to us, his faithful friends to that bitter end. And in the dying of the light he was there for you and me. You are amazing Leonard Cohen. And I love you so 💓❤️

  38. J.... G....

    Stunningly consummate
    Achingly complete
    Mortals may thus reverberate
    The bliss in defeat

  39. A.... R....

    Crumbs Leonard you do set some seriously difficult puzzles to solve

    "Symbolically - A hummingbird is a person who has chosen to make life’s journey a spiritual one, but one of activity and positive contribution. He/she is quick witted and bright - the only creature that can stop dead while travelling at full speed. It can hover, or can go forward, backward, up or down….. If you have Hummingbird medicine, you … have high energy and a spirit that must be free. It is about independence and courage. ....but there is also the hint that a Hummingbird person is a bag of nervous energy incapable of relaxing, always doing things for others or trying to achieve their destiny"

    so................... where is he/she then?

    A.... R....

    Love this reflection of Cohen's contributions.

  40. 1.... ....

    Rōshi Cohen :)

  41. �.... Y....

    HallleluYAH. Ecclesiastes 12:4  ...., and he shall rise up at the voice of the bird, ... "TWEET"...Offenbarung 22:21 Die Gnade unsers Ewig-Vater Jesu Christi Friedefürst sei mit euch allen! Amen.

  42. B.... 6....

    All the people who comment here are true music fans. Thanks for the songs Mr Cohen.

  43. F.... W....

    only good people come here

  44. A.... H....

    Yes I know this trick. When I feel like distracting myself from the mundane and soothe my mind I listen to the birds because the birds listen to the mind of God I get a free ride.

  45. S.... L....

    perfect conclusion

    S.... L....

    HalleluYAH. Ecclesiastes 12:13  Let us hear the conclusion of the whole matter: Fear ELoheem, and keep His commandments: for this is the whole duty of man. Offenbarung 22:21 Die Gnade unsers Ewig-Vater Jesu Christi Friedefürst sei mit euch allen! Amen. PS: ELiezer ben Nisan HaKohein u'Masha, also known as Leonard Cohen.

  46. T.... N....

    He's the greatest Poet of our times!!!!! I know I'm writing this under every song of this album, cause I feel bad that it's not as viral as the pop stupid songs are, but then I realize that he doesn't need all that recognition, he's music is beyond all that, it's eternal, it's from another world ))))

    T.... N....

    Very true, I was blessed to hear his poetry in 1964 while on HIS island in Greece. Changed my life.

    T.... N....

    No he doesn't!!
    Helps me to be alright with myself.

    T.... N....

    Leonard Cohen will shine like all blues legends still do, right there in the nightsky along with Bowie.

  47. M.... K....
