IN THE STATIC | IM RAUSCHEN
Artwork for »Four Winds«. The dark silhouette of a walking figure moves across a misty landscape, their head slightly bowed. Flowing from their shoulders is a wide, billowing cape in vivid rainbow colors, trailing behind them in sweeping arcs as if carried by unseen winds. Above, a large, incomplete ink circle — an enso — hovers, surrounded by soft gray brushstrokes that suggest the motion of four winds. The scene blends stillness and strength, tradition and color — a single step through a world where wind, path, and identity intertwine.

Lyrics

Lyrics: Dschafaa

Tears of dread.
Twenty-one —
a joke,
unbearable.

[Verse]
Stairs of history,
repeating into nothingness.
grimaces instead of love.

[Verse]
Lost ground,
the wheel spins hollow,
fragments of a truth.

[Chorus]
Four winds carry —
courage unnamed.
Four winds carry —
as “to” becomes “with.”
Four winds.
One world.
One light.

[Verse]
Two meetings.
A reach for reason —
shattered by bombs.

[Verse]
Head shaking.
Resignation.
Where have we landed?

[Verse]
A rainbow of defiance,
laid across the shoulders.
Yes — behold it.

[Chorus]
Four winds carry —
courage unnamed.
Four winds carry —
as “to” becomes “with.”
Four winds.
One world.
One light.

[Verse]
A shimmer in the here,
softened borders —
the start of a journey
into nevertheless.

[Verse]
Listening.
Walking.
Breathing.

[Verse]
Songs speak
their wisdom
to you.

[Chorus]
Four winds carry —
courage unnamed.
Four winds carry —
as “to” becomes “with.”
Four winds.
One world.
One light.

[Verse]
Dancing in rain,
history reshaping,
turning a “to” into a “with.”

[Verse]
Without what,
without who,
without time.

[Chorus]
Four winds carry —
courage unnamed.
Four winds carry —
as “to” becomes “with.”
Four winds.
One world.
One light.

[Verse]
You could —
yet you do not ask.
Your story presses.

[Verse]
Two tickets.
One given away.
Hope.

[Verse]
Encouragement.
Keep going.
We see you.

[Chorus]
Four winds carry —
courage unnamed.
Four winds carry —
as “to” becomes “with.”
Four winds.
One world.
One light.

[Verse]
History writes itself.
grimaces or love?
Does it hold the sun?

[Verse]
Doubt.
Concern.
Future after this?
Warriors of the rainbow.

[Verse]
Stand firm.
A crooked circle —
will you break through it?
Walk against,
step by step.
Four winds that carry.

[Chorus]
Four winds carry —
courage unnamed.
Four winds carry —
as “to” becomes “with.”
Four winds.
One world.
One light.

[Verse]
Second ticket —
for friendship.
Lionheart sings.

[Verse]
I and I.
The dawn.
Light of your grace.

[Verse]
ॐ भूर्भुवः स्वः
(Om bhūr bhuvaḥ svaḥ)

तत्सवितुर्वरेण्यं
(Tat savitur vareṇyam)

भरगो देवस्य धीमहि
(Bhargo devasya dhīmahi)

धियो यो नः प्रचोदयात्
(Dhiyo yo naḥ pracodayāt)

[Verse]

[Outro]

Διά · Holding Together

Διά is the space where a song can carry political, spiritual, personal and collective layers at once — without collapsing them into a single explanation.

Four-Winds — DIA (EN)

These eight layers are not competing explanations. They are complementary illuminations of the same experience. The track can hold all of them simultaneously:

A political statement and a spiritual invocation.
A personal trauma and a collective awakening.
A protest song and a prayer.
A call to action and an offer of solace.

The IPF method does not resolve the ambiguity. It honors it as the space where meaning lives.

What remains? The four winds that carry. The rainbow of defiance. The transition from “to” to “with.” The twice-called light. The certainty: We see you. The question: Will you break through it?

And the vision: One world. One light.

And after the mantra: silence. The most eloquent word.
