De Luce Brera / Album The Pilgrim Composed by Shaun Davey 20.The Deers Cry: Rita Connolly, vocal; City of Glasgow Chorus and orchestra. The lyrics are taken from Kuno Meyo's translation of the 8th century poem sometimes, but apparently incorrectly, attributed to St. Patrick and alternatively entitled `St. Patrick's Breastplate'. The opening words in the original Irish, `atom-ruig' translated here as `I arise' have also been translated as 'I gird myself'. This prayer-poem served as a prayer for protection against the perils faced by medieval travellers. The Deers Cry Anon. 8th Century : Translated from old Irish by Kuno Meyer. I arise today Through the strength of Heaven Light of sun Radiance of moon Splendour of fire Speed of lightning Swiftness of wind Depth of the sea Stability of earth Firmness of rock I arise today Through Gods strength to pilot me Gods eye to look before me Gods wisdom to guide me Gods way to lie before me Gods shield to protect me From all who shall wish me ill Afar and anear Alone and in a multitude Against every cruel Merciless power That may oppose my body and soul Christ with me, Christ before me, Christ behind me, Christ in me, Christ beneath me, Christ above me, Christ on my right, Christ on my left, Christ when I lie down, Christ when I sit down, Christ when I arise, Christ to shield me Christ in the heart of everyone who thinks of me, Christ in the mouth of everyone who speaks of me I arise today. http://www.taramusic.com/sleevenotes/... http://www.taramusic.com/sleevenotes/... http://www.taramusic.com/biogs/shaund...
