Gustav Holst - Varuna I (Sky) lyrics
[Gustav Holst - Varuna I Sky lyrics]
Oh thou great judge, Varuna
Day after day we break thy holy laws
Oh let us not be yielded up
To Death to be destroyèd
To be destroyèd in thy wrath
To gain forgiveness, Varuna
In deepest woe I raise to thee my chant:
Behold, it riseth up towards thy
Holy throne to beg for mercy
As flies the bird unto his nest
Thou knowest all, Varuna
Thou knowest the pathway of the moon and wind
Thy laws throughout eternity endure
Thou mighty ruler
And to thy judgement all must come
He doth appear! My cry is answerеd!
I am delivered from my sin
Day after day we break thy holy laws
Oh let us not be yielded up
To Death to be destroyèd
To be destroyèd in thy wrath
To gain forgiveness, Varuna
In deepest woe I raise to thee my chant:
Behold, it riseth up towards thy
Holy throne to beg for mercy
As flies the bird unto his nest
Thou knowest all, Varuna
Thou knowest the pathway of the moon and wind
Thy laws throughout eternity endure
Thou mighty ruler
And to thy judgement all must come
He doth appear! My cry is answerеd!
I am delivered from my sin
