Pneuma Hagion


Hail, hail kingdom
Of eternal brightness.
Hail, hail Pleroma (Fullness)
of the Divinity!
Abyss, o immense sea
Where matter is set in motion;
Mystery of Silence,
Of Love, and of Beauty!




"Salut, salut royaume
D'éternelle clarté.
Salut, salut Plérome
De la Divinité!
Abîme, ô mer immense
O— se meut la substance;
Mystère de Silence,
D'Amour et de beauté!"

The wonderful thing about blogging is that you don't need to suffer my massacre of the French langue to be able to enjoy a beautiful canticle. Cool, no?
