Two different settings of A.S. Kline's beautiful poem 'Silence'—one in Latin and the other in English.

Silentium

Pro lingua, labia, ore,
gutture.
Silentium.
Pro umbra, in temporis iudiciis, facie,
clara.
Silentium.
Pro lapide, trunco, flumine,
ramo.
Silentium.
Pro vulnere. Pro sanguine vulneris,
pro oculo.
Silentium.
Pro ossi, casu, alba
lunae dona.
Silentium.
Pro vobis. Silentium. Pro tempore. Silentium.
Id ardet.

Silence

For the tongue, the lips, the mouth,
the throat.
Silence.
For the shadow in time’s courts, the face,
the bright one.
Silence.
For the stone, the stem, the stream,
the branch.
Silence.
For the wound. For the blood of the wound,
for the eye.
Silence.
For the bone, the fall the white
moon-gifts.
Silence.
For you. Silence. For time. Silence.
It burns.
