今天本人收到一条不是很开心的消息，我们一起来听一首抚慰人心的合唱吧～这首 Cantique de Jean Racine 是 Faure 19岁时参加比赛的作品～歌词是 Jean Racine 对拉丁原文的法语翻译～看不懂法语的我就分享一下英文翻译吧～ Word of the Highest, our only hope, Eternal day of earth and the heavens, We break the silence of the peaceful night; Saviour Divine, cast your eyes upon us! Pour on us the fire of your powerful grace, That all hell may flee at the sound of your voice; Banish the slumber of a weary soul, That brings forgetfulness of your laws! O Christ, look with favour upon your faithful people Now gathered here to praise you; Receive their hymns offered to your immortal glory; May they go forth filled with your gifts. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=iJfKLviVCEI #adventCalendar#choral#frenchComposers
