Abraham and Isaac: A Parable of 9.11.01 Roger Ames
(b. 1944)
text by Wilfred Owen
So Abraham rose and clave the wood, and went and took
the fire with him, and a knife. And as they sojourned
both of them together, Isaac the first born spake and said:
My father, behold the preparations: Fire and iron.
But where is the lamb for this burnt offering? Then
Abraham bound the youth with belts and straps, and builded
parapets and trenches there, and stretched forth the knife
to slay his son. When lo an angel called him out of heaven,
Saying, lay not thy hand upon the lad, neither do anything
to him. Behold a ram, caught in the thicket by its horns;
Offer the Ram of Pride instead of him. But the old man would
not so, and slew his son. And half the seed of Europe,
one by one! Kyrie eleison. Requiem aeternam.

O schöne Nacht, Op. 92, No. 1 Johannes Brahms
(1833-1897)
Oh lovely night!
In the sky, magically,
the moon shines in all its splendor;
around it, the pleasant company of little stars.
Dew glistens brightly on green stems;
in the lilac bush, the nightingale sings lustily.
The youth steals away quietly to his love.
Oh lovely night!
Abendlied, Op. 69, No. 3 Josef Rheinberger
(1839-1901)
Stay with us for quickly falls the evening,
and the day is past and over.
Der Abend, Op. 64, No. 2 Johannes Brahms
Let it sink, radiant God - the fields thirst
for refreshing dew; the people languish;
the steeds are weary -
let the chariot sink down!
Behold the one who beckons to you, sweetly smiling,
from the sea's crystalline wave! Does your heart recognize her?
Faster fly the steeds;
Tethys, the divine one, beckons.
The driver leaps quickly from the chariot
into her arms. Cupid seizes the reins;
the steeds stand still
and drink at the cooling stream.
Ascending in the sky with quiet steps
comes the fragrant night; sweet love follows.
Rest and love!
Phoebus, the loving one, rests.
O, Mistress Mine! György Orbán
