歌词

[00:02.92] All is cold hard beauty,
[00:09.14] pain is never done
[00:32.63] And we remain clothed in space
[00:43.97] Forming from space
[00:53.57] Space we come and return
[01:01.30] And I saw within the mystery of god
[01:16.23] In the midst of the southern breezes
[01:23.05] A wondrously beautiful image
[01:32.32] It had a human form
[01:38.02] and it's countenance was of such beauty
[01:45.06] That I could have more easily gazed at the sun
[01:55.38] Than in that face
[02:00.65] For a broad golden ring circled it's head
[02:08.04] In this ring above the face there
[02:13.87] appeared a second countenance
[02:22.93] Like that of an elderly man
[02:30.61] It's chin and beard resting on the crown
[02:40.55] of her first face
[02:45.58] And on both sides of the figure a wing
[02:53.19] grew out of the shoulders
[03:01.47] The wings rose above the face
[03:10.28] and were joined there
[03:15.70] Then at the top part of the wing
[03:21.89] on the curve appeared an eagle's head
[03:30.38] Its eyes were like fire and in them the brilliance of angels
[03:38.13] streamed forth from the mirror
[03:46.02] On the part of the left wing's curve
[03:52.99] there was soothed a human head
[04:00.51] Which shone like the gleaming of the stars
[04:08.46] Both faces were turned towards the east
[04:16.04] And from the shoulders of the figure
[04:21.85] a wing extended to its knees
[04:31.29] The figure was wrapped in a garment
[04:34.28] that shone like the sun
[04:45.33] Its hands carried the lamb
[04:52.76] which shone like a brilliant day
[05:00.28] The figure's feet trod upon a monster of black
[05:06.63] A serpent had fastened its teeth into it
[05:15.04] And its body was wound around the wound
[05:22.81] Its tail extended to the left
[05:28.91] It said "I am the highest in fiery power
[05:36.78] I have kindled every spark of life
[05:45.60] I am it, nothing that is deadly
[05:51.82] I decided on all reality
[06:00.43] With my wings I fly above this little world
[06:15.12] With wisdom have I put the universe in order
[06:21.78] I am the fiery life of essence
[06:29.79] I am a flame beyond the beauty even of the meadows
[06:45.29] It is I who gleam in the waters
[06:52.53] It is I that burn in the sun
[07:00.83] It is I that burn in the moon
[07:07.69] It is I that burn in the stars
[07:15.58] With every breeze as with invisible life
[07:22.74] that contains everything
[07:29.83] It is I that awaken every thing to life
[07:37.77] The air lives by turning green and being in bloom
[07:59.67] And the waters flow as if they were alive
[08:05.57] The sun lives in it's light
[08:08.70] and the moon is enkindled
[08:14.32] After it's disappearance once again by the light
[08:20.28] Of the sun so that the moon is again revived
[08:29.58] The stars too give the light with their beaming
[08:35.46] I have established pillars that bear the entire globe
[08:45.15] In the same way too the body envelopes the soul
[08:51.06] And maintains it so that the soul will never blow away"
[09:00.58] And all is cold hard beauty,
[09:07.06] pain is never done
[09:25.16] Never done
[09:36.51]
