Khorasan is inspired by the stories 'In Baghdad Dreaming of Cairo: In Cairo, Dreaming of Baghdad' by Rumi, and 'The Alchemist' by Paulo Coelho. Sometimes the treasures we are looking for have been with us all along, but it can take a long journey to discover this. Khorasan is a historical region of Persia that provides the destination of this spiritual journey, where we discover the answers to the secrets of this world were inside us all along.

| Lyrics |

Khorasan 

I have come 

Here alone 

In my dream 

Earth and stone 

Turned to gold 

Was that you 

Long ago 

Khorasan? 

Can you guide me to the treasures I have lost? 

Can you show me every secret I forgot? 

When I came you asked me where I had come from 

You said my homeland was my kingdom all along 

Khorasan 

I must go 

Send me home 

Breathe in me 

I have healed 

I have grown 

Give me peace 

In my soul 

Khorasan 

Can you guide me to the treasures I have lost? 

Can you show me every secret I forgot? 

When I came you asked me where I had come from 

You said my homeland was my kingdom and my secret all along 

Khorasan, 

Send me home 

Khorasan.
