I asked AI to generate a song of the Olive associated with peace, endurance, reconciliation, and quiet wisdom.
The AI called ‘Suno’ can generate songs from text.
Generating lyrics
I asked ChatGPT ‘Please write lyrics with ‘Olive’, as the theme.’
The result is below.
[Verse 1]
Silver leaves in afternoon light,
Roots in stone, yet reaching height.
You’ve seen the wars, you’ve felt the years,
Held the sun, absorbed the tears.[Pre-Chorus]
Wind may bend your patient frame,
Still you grow, you stay the same.
In every scar, a story lives,
An ancient calm the present gives.[Chorus]
Oh, Olive, bearer of peace,
You teach the heart how fights can cease.
With open hands, with quiet grace,
You soften time, you slow the race.
From broken ground, from history,
Olive, you grow a harmony.[Verse 2]
Branches offered, not in pride,
But as a vow to stand beside.
Through burning days and starless nights,
You keep the hope within your sight.[Bridge]
Not all strength is loud or sharp,
Some is patient, some is calm.
To stay, to heal, to still believe,
Is the greatest gift you give.[Final Chorus]
Oh, Olive, calm and wise,
You shade the truth from angry skies.
Through endless time, through joy and grief,
You whisper hope with every leaf.
From ancient soil to you and me,
Olive, you teach humanity.
Style of music
I asked ChatGPT ‘Plese tell me the suitable style of music for above lyrics’.
The result is below.
1.Mediterranean Folk
Why: Olive trees are iconic to the Mediterranean world. Acoustic guitar, oud, mandolin, light percussion, and warm vocal lines naturally reflect the sun-worn, ancient atmosphere of the lyrics.
Atmosphere: Earthy, warm, timeless.
Artists for reference: Loreena McKennitt (Mediterranean-influenced works), traditional Greek / Italian folk
2.Ambient Folk
Why: Gentle acoustic instruments blended with subtle ambient textures echo the lyrics’ calm wisdom and sense of history.
Atmosphere: Peaceful, contemplative, grounded.
Artists for reference: Novo Amor, Sufjan Stevens (quiet songs)
3.Neo-Classical
Why: Piano and strings can express dignity, patience, and emotional depth without overpowering the message of peace.
Atmosphere: Noble, serene, reflective.
Artists for reference: Max Richter, Ludovico Einaudi
4.World Acoustic / World Folk
Why: The universal symbolism of the olive branch suits a global, acoustic sound that blends cultures gently rather than focusing on one tradition.
Atmosphere: Human, inclusive, hopeful.
Artists for reference: Dead Can Dance (acoustic pieces), Anoushka Shankar (gentler works)
So I used below style of music.
Mediterranean Folk,Ambient Folk,Neo-Classical,World Acoustic
