Mala'k Ashtar Edenu or A MESSENGER'S SONG
written by Soror Akana aka Rebecca K. Howard on November 26th, An CIV 2007 e.v.
o, Star, Unveil Thy Light
Thou art Born to Rise!
Art thou not here, in Silence standing?
Moving, yearning, trembling
A Name Thy falling steps reclaim,
Resound above the Mountain!!
Hear, here, the wind:
Raise up Thy wings, Thy Blood is Fire!
Thou art Not what thou had sought before:
Thou art stream unending unrelenting Mirror!!
Thou, Beloved, Triumphant Bell Sung become the shining Herald
flung, Daring, Thou art the Child grown past Morning!
Come nigh, to Dance, o man: Thou art more than this hand,
this Sword, this Land!
Ecstasy, climbed, grasping now:
musical voices in Chorus releasing vowels and Chord -
Thou Art impenetrable Fortress!
O, Star, Unveil Thy Light Thou art Born to Rise!
Thou art, Thou art, Naught!...
and Thy wings... light up the night.
O, release thee: Eternal Star,
That Thou may Fly!!!
