Golden Light
Streams Down from the Skies
...Above...
The Lethargic Barren Wastelands
Out of the Musty Caverns
Lays My Pilgrimage
...So Grant Me Humility
To Weight the Chains of My Repentance
Impose to me...
A Bitter (Severe) Penance
As Lonely Candle Flaming Dim
On Moistured Stone of Oblation
Thought I am not worthy
For Thy Holy Gifts
Spare me...
...In Sacred Grove...
Pale Shreds of Mists (Fog)
Like a Shroud
Covered Swamps
Hostile Eyes Sleeps
Through the Centuries of Grief...
Waters Felled the Chasm...
Here in the Monastery of Hydras
