Fortieth Week
January 6, 2008 - January 12, 2008
And when I live in spirit depths
And dwell within my soul's foundations,
There streams from love-worlds of the heart,
To fill the vain delusion of the self,
The fiery power of the cosmic Word.
=====
English translation by Ruth and Hans Pusch
Und bin ich in den Geistestiefen,
Erfüllt in meinen Seelengründen
Aus Herzens Liebewelten
Der Eigenheiten leerer Wahn
Sich mit des Weltenwortes Feuerkraft.
=====
The Year Participated translationby Owen Barfield
Once I am truly in the Spirit's deeps
straightway from out my soul's foundation --
from boundless love within the heart -- the fraud,
the hollow shell of private inclinations
fills with the might, the fire of the Word.
