Thy will be done once again, Lord,
may we rest beside the thou­sands and thou­sands, beside  the generations
of the blind who were reject­ed, who did not know even for an instant
the joy of your king­dom, only the fatigue of life, the anguish and immense sorrow.
Bound­less is the night of time, Lord, once again Thy will be done,
may we also rest with­out oth­er hope or faith
beneath the dark grass that grows taller.

 

Trans­lat­ed from Greek by Richard Pierce
