Romowe Rikoito - The Quest

Текст песни

A part, immutable, unseen\nBeing, before itself had been\nBecame. Like dew a triple queen\nShone as the void uncovered:\nThe silence of deep height was drawn\nA veil across the silver dawn\nOn holy wings that hovered\nThe music of three thoughts became\nThe beauty, that is one white flame\nThe justice that surpasses shame\nThe victory, the splendour\nThe sacred fountain that is whirled\nFrom depths beyond that older world\nA new world to engender\nThe kingdom is extended. Night\nDwells, and I contemplate the sight\nThat is not seeing, but the light\nThat secretly is kindled\nThough oft-time its most holy fire\nLacks oil, whene’er my own Desire\nBefore desire has dwindled\nI see the thin web binding me With thirteen cords of unity\nToward the calm centre of the sea\n(O thou supernal mother!)\nThe triple light my path divides\nTo twain and fifty sudden sides\nEach perfect as each other\nNow backwards, inwards still my mind\nMust track the intangible and blind\nAnd seeking, shall securely find\nHidden in secret places\nFresh feasts for every soul that strives\nNew life for many mystic lives\nAnd strange new forms and faces\nMy mind still searches, and attains\nBy many days and many pains\nTo That which Is and Was and reigns\nShadowed in four and ten;\nAnd loses self in sacred lands\nAnd cries and quickens, and understands\nBeyond the first Amen
