EnglishGreece, Acrocorinth
Mystical Ascent of the Triple Enclosure
Corinthe 1
From the ancient city, one contemplates Acrocorinth
Corinthe 2
Everything suggests we go up there.
Acrocorinthe 1
The fortress seems impregnable
Acrocorinthe 2
And yet we have to go there.
Acrocorinthe 3
The first enclosure is the body, easy to cross
Acrocorinthe 4
And here is the second, that of the soul
Acrocorinthe 6
We must go from the shadows to the light
Acrocorinthe 7
To discover the last, that of the Spirit
Acrocorinthe 8
And behind, the elusive fort!
Acrocorinthe 9
Approach the door of the Spirit
Acrocorinthe 10
It is very well defended by the inner enemies of the soul
Acrocorinthe 11
Then you must reach the fort, the Holy of Holies
Acrocorinthe 12
From where we can discover the landscapes
Acrocorinthe 13
Before that, the chapel awaits us
Acrocorinthe 14
In front of the ruins of our sins.
Acrocorinthe 15
Inside the sanctuary
Acrocorinthe 16
One becomes what one contemplates
Acrocorinthe 17
Through the prayer of the heart
Acrocorinthe 18
But there remains a bastion to take
Acrocorinthe 19
Before arriving at the foot of the fort
Acrocorinthe 20
Who dominates the worlds!
Acrocorinthe 21
Here we are! You can see the staircase ...
Acrocorinthe 22
And it is still in prayer and contemplation
Acrocorinthe 23
That we must reside to penetrate the mystery
Acrocorinthe 24
Then the enemies are defeated
Acrocorinthe 25
And prayer continues indefinitely
Acrocorinthe 26
The descent is much faster
Acrocorinthe 27
Because everything is within oneself, now
Acrocorinthe 28
Here we are at the last door
Acrocorinthe 29
And already down, but not the same.
