Ontogenesis
Immortal darkness
of the underworld, oh, Kore
a supplicant I become
the sky to adorn
the cloud with my fear to define
momentous freedom of thought
I am the Great Spirit’s song
eternal warmth of life
I possess before I come down
to find refuge in your abode
after my days reach their end
accept me in your Sanctum Sanctorum
oh Kore, a simple minded fir I’ve been
for all the days and nights of my life
