Music is the language of the spirit. It opens the secret of life bringing peace, abolishing strife.

The line presents music as a universal, pre-verbal medium that communicates directly with the inner self—what Gibran calls “the spirit.” In this view, music bypasses social divisions and intellectual argument, reaching a shared human core where reconciliation is possible. “Opens the secret of life” suggests that music discloses something fundamental about existence—its emotional truth, its harmony, its capacity for transcendence—rather than offering factual knowledge. The closing claim, “bringing peace, abolishing strife,” frames music as ethically and socially restorative: it can quiet inner turmoil and, by fostering empathy and attunement, soften conflict between people.
