Some music for vampires:

If it were within,

within our power,

beyond the reach

of slavish pride.

To no longer

harbour grievances,

behind the masked

opportunist's facade:



We could welcome responsibility

like a long lost friend,

and re-establish laughter

in the dolls' house once again.

For time has imprisoned us

in the order of our years,

in the discipline of our ways,

and in the passing of momentary stillness

we can see our chaos in motion

Our chaos in motion

We can see our chaos in motion,

view our chaos in motion.

Horea lungă ciobănească / Pastoral song





http://youtu.be/Hbd1bVA2BuE





"Horea lungă ciobănească" performed by Ion Petreuş at long shepherd's pipe ("trişcă"). Romanian archaic traditional shepherd folk song from Transylvania, Maramures area.



*****

"Hora lungă" (a variant of "Doina") particularities are instrumental character, very ornamented, and indeterminate content structure. The musician may freely stretch or compress its rhythm, and often will highly ornament each note.



*****

"Trișca" is a longer/thicker version of "tilinca", for lower harmonies.

Eltan Renaxy is a Chinese band of Dark Neo-Folk.



song taken from their EP "Weird Ballads In My Town"









The text from the booklet:



Jordi was the daughter of Shels's. Everytime Shels talked about her, he cried, terribly. Ever since her father killed her mother, Jordi left him. It was said that she went to another town and married to a poor labourer. Jordi had a beautiful body and charming eyes. But that poor labourer could never satisfy her infinite desires. For a long time, the bother of her husband always called her to make love in the midnight. She chirped and made the heavy night of the town even grayer. But Jordi hurt badly deep inside, she wanted to run. One day one said she ran into the mountains, but her husband found her, beat her and raped her.

A lovely little poem



accompanied by the divine music



of



Ataraxia



for the spiritual ointment

of the dreamlike mind of my beloved one,

known in far East under the secret name of





Aryna,





also named after the angel of the old by the name of Bendis

"Down by the salley gardens my love and I did meet

She passed the salley gardens with little snow-white feet

She bid me take love easy, as the leaves grow on the tree

But I, being young and foolish, with her would not agree



In a field by the river my love and I did stand

And on my leaning shoulder she laid her snow-white hand

She bid me take life easy, as the grass grows on the weirs

But I was young and foolish, and now am full of tears"





by W. B. Yeats
