about

“Let your eyes get used to darkness so that you may see at night.”



This song invites you to look inside, to see your cyclical nature and to see what lives in your subconscious.
The waning moon is entwined with the returning darkness. From form to nothingness, and then from fullness to formless.




lyrics

· Nihtēagan ·

Læt ēower ēagan wenian tō ðǣre ðeostre
Læt ēower ēagan nihtēagan weorþan

Hwæt leofað on ðǣre ðeostre?
Hwæt hȳdeþ on ðǣm niht-sceadwum?
Hwæt grēwð on ðǣre ðeostre?
Hwæt lūtaþ on ðǣm niht-sceadwum?

Seoh ðā niht wiðinnan þē sylfum
Seoh ðā edwendendan þeostre wiðinnan

Gā dēope
Gā inne
Gā on dūne,
Gā on bæce

Let your eyes get used to darkness
Let your eyes become able to see at night

What lives in the darkness?
What hides in the shades of night?
What grows in the darkness?
What lurks in the shades of night?

See the nightfall within yourself
See the returning darkness within

Go deep
Go inwards
Go down
Go backwards
