Dirait-On
Morten Lauridsen
FRENCH
Abandon entouré d’abandon,
tendresse touchant aux tendresses…
C’est ton intérieur qui sans cesse
se caresse, dirait-on;
se caresse en soi-même,
par son propre reflet éclairé.
Ainsi tu inventes le theme
du Narcisse exaucé.
ENGLISH
Abandon surrounding abandon,
tenderness touching tenderness…
Your oneness endlessly
caresses itself, so they say;
self-caressing
through its own clear reflection.
Thus you invent the theme
of Narcissus fulfilled.

Aure Volanti
Text: Ferdinando Saracinelli
Music: Francesca Caccini
ITALIAN
Aure volanti, augei canori
fonti stillanti, grazie e amori
quinci d'intorno, fate più chiar' il sol,
più lieto il giorno
Antri gelati, fulgido sole,
erbosi prati, gigli e viole,
quinci d'intorno, fate più chiar' il soul,
più lieto il giorno.
ENGLISH
Wandering breezes, sweet warbling songbirds,
soft trickling fountains, graces and pleasure
all here surrounding, make the sun brighter,
make the day much lighter.
Cool frosted caverns, sunlight so glowing,
green waving meadows, violets and lilies,
all here surrounding, make the sun brighter,
make the day much lighter.

O Frondens Virga
Text: Hildegard von Bingen
Music: Frank Ferko
LATIN
O frondens virga,
in tua nobilitate stans
sicut aurora procedit:
Nunc gaude et laetare
et nos debiles dignare
a mala consuetudine liberare
atque manum tuam porrige
ad erigendum nos.
ENGLISH
O blooming branch,
behold in your nobleness
as day’s first light comes forth,
now rejoice and be glad;
Grant that we the weak
may be freed from our evil ways,
and stretch forth your hand to raise us up.
Taaveti laul 104
(Psalm 104, “Bless the Lord, my soul!”)
Cyrillus Kreek
ESTONIAN
Kiida, mu hing, Issandat!
Kiidetud oled Sina!
Issand, mu Jumal, Sa oled suur.
Kui sured on Sinu teod, Issand!
Sa oled kõik targasti teinud.
Au olgu Sulle, Issand,
kes Sa kõik oled teinud!
Au olgu Isale, Pojale,
Pühale Vaimule au,
Nüüd ja igavest. Amen.
ENGLISH
Bless the Lord, O my soul!
Praise the Lord!
O Lord my God, Thou art great.
O Lord, how manifold are thy works!
In wisdom hast thou made them all.
Glory be to Thee, O Lord,
who had made all things!
Glory to the Father, the Son, and the Holy Spirit,
now and evermore. Amen.
They are Mother
