(Swans - August 24, 2009)  

before the sea, the earth,
               the all embracing sky

musica, firmamentos, palacios, rios, angeles
secreto sin misterio ni juramento

and two deep spirals, two waters breaks
net and fecundate each other
nel mistero dell'universo

immortalia ne speres
               monet annus
do not hope for immortal things,
               time whispers
nel mistero dell'universo
