lyrics

Hail holy light, those heaven-borne — eternal... or those close enough.
May I express thee unblamed?
Since God is light and never but in unapproached light.
There’s eternal that lives in you,
Bright light of the uncreated,
That which existed before the sun, before the stars.
There’s a rising world of waters dark and deep.
Born of the formless void,
It’s taken so long, but from the Stygian pool it flies on bolder wings while the wind sleeps.
To an Orphean lyre I sing of chaos and eternal night.
Revisit not these eyes.
Thy piercing ray seemed bright,
Only to find, in the end, it holds no dawn.

- Satan's Speech to the legions of Hell;
Paradise Lost, John Milton, 1667.
