Translations and Texts
“Hope” is the thing with feathers
Hope is the thing with feathers
That perches in the soul,
And sings the tune without the words,
And never stops at all,
And sweetest in the gale is heard;
And sore must be the storm
That could abash the little bird
That kept so many warm.
I've heard it in the chillest land,
And on the strangest sea;
Yet, never, in extremity,
It asked a crumb of me.
Dirait-on
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.
Clair de lune
Your soul is a rare landscape
Charmed by masks and bergamasks
Playing the lute and dancing, and almost
Sad beneath their fantastic disguises.
While singing in the minor key
Of victorious love and the good life,
They do not seem to believe in their happiness,
and their song blends with the moonlight.
With the calm moonlight, sad and
beautiful,
That makes the birds dream in the trees,
And the fountains sob with rapture,
The tall slender fountains among the marble statues.
Ubi Caritas
Where charity and love are, God is there.
Love of Christ has gathered us into one.
Let us rejoice in Him and be glad.
Let us fear, and let us love the living God.
And from a sincere heart let us love one.
Where charity and love are, God is there.
Amen.
Tu Es Petrus
You are Peter,
And upon this Rock I will build My Church:
and the gates of hell shall not overcome it.
Tantum Ergo
Down in adoration falling,
Lo! the Sacred Host we hail,
Lo! o'er ancient forms departing
Newer rites of grace prevail;
Faith for all defects supplying,
Where the feeble senses fail.
To the Everlasting Father,
And the Son Who reigns on high
With the Holy Ghost proceeding
Forth from Each eternally,
Be salvation, honor, blessing,
Might, and endless majesty.
Amen.
Sanctus! Sanctus!
Holy, Holy, Holy
Lord God of hosts.
Heaven and earth are full of your glory.
Hosanna in the highest.
Blessed is he who comes in the name of the Lord.
Hosanna in the highest.
