Intimations of Everlasting Constancy |
Cold and Darkness, where is your strenght? |
Ice and Snow, where is your dominion? |
When the sun of eternal life rises over the barren wilderness |
You flee like scared sparrows… |
You melt and pour out of time. |
Sitting there in the snow I felt the cold conquer me, |
alone and freezing away from the illusion of warmth, |
which lived so strongly within me. |
Should I close my eyes for the last time? |
Should I give up my breath which makes the light of my life? |
Uncertainty doesn’t kill, |
its sword only cuts the thorns in its way… |
Many days came and went. |
Nights streamed rapidly by… |
Watching the shadows dance in the past, |
hearing the flow of rain in the quiet loneliness… |
The constant quest of man for what is right. |
The hope of life shining brightest when the night is as darkest? |
The mystery smiles at me… |
Time, coiled up, is held in Thy hand. |
Oh, God, Thy way is mine… |
And so, the feeling was reborn, |
like the sweet perfume of the deep forest, |
like the expectancy of the beast of prey |
after its long winter sleep. |
It was a particular day, |
unlike too many others |
when I plucked up courage |
and rose from my prison bed. |
Oh, there was heard a familiar sound… |
the signal of the end of the night, |
indicating a recollection was born: |
Springtime approaching in all its glorious beauty, |
stealthily, silently like a whisper… |
The spring… |
I was given the grace once again to behold dawn |
…the Gift. |
It was true. |
I was there at the horizon of life, at the mirror of the soul. |
The gate to the feast of light… |
All concepts have lost their meaning, |
few understand what Beauty means, |
few understand its might. |
The Gift… A melody born in Heaven |
An intimation of everlasting constancy. |
It is dancing in the room… |
Musical tones fill the silence |
Was it but a dream? |
No, nothing in the realm of dreams can be so wonderful. |
I am thirsting for more… |
The sweetness of your wine is a remedy. |
Yes, the sweetness of the wine is beauty fulfilled… |
Tones saying more than a thousand words. |
Who can tell their meaning? |
