lirik lagu benjamin britten - sanctus
[soprano and chorus]
sanctus, sanctus, sanctus
dominus deus sabaoth
pleni sunt ceoli et terra gloria tua
hosanna in excelsis
sanctus
benedictus qui venit in nomine domini
hosanna in excelsis
sanctus
[baritone]
after the blast of lighning from the east
the flourish of loud clouds, the chariot throne;
after the drums of time have rolled and ceased
and by the bronze west long retreat is blown
shall life renew these bodies? of a truth
all death will he annul, all tears -ssuage? –
fill the void veins of life again with youth
and wash, with an immortal water, age?
when i do ask white age he saith not so:
“my head hangs weighed with snow.”
and when i hearken to the earth, she saith:
“my fiery heart shrinks, aching. it is death
mine ancient scars shalls not be glorified
nor my titanic tears, the sea, be dried.”
