Light of Gold Lux Aurumque

The power of imagination, and the effort to pull off a dream.

Edward Esch's Light of Gold

Light,

Warm and heavy as pure gold

and the angels sing softly

to the new-born baby.

Lux Aurumque (trans. in Latin by Charles Anthony Silvestri)
Lux
Calida gravisque
Pura velut aurum
Et canunt angeli
Mollitermodo natum.
