My favourite Song ( Symphony) - Beethoven 9th Symphony - " Ode to Joy "

Beethoven's  9th Symphony -  For me it was a realisation of a Joyful spirit  Transcending time..

ODE TO JOY (Friedrich Schiller)

BARITONE, QUARTET, AND CHORUS

Joy, beautiful spark of the gods, 
Daughter of Elysium, 
We enter fire imbibed, 
Heavenly, thy sanctuary.

Thy magic reunites those
Whom stern custom has parted; 
All men will become brothers
Under thy gentle wing.

May he who has had the fortune
To gain a true friend
And he who has won a noble wife
Join in our jubilation! 

Yes, even if he calls but one soul
His own in all the world.
But he who has failed in this
Must steal away alone and in tears.

All the world's creatures
Draw joy from nature's breast; 
Both the good and the evil
Follow her rose-strewn path.

She gave us kisses and wine
And a friend loyal unto death; 
She gave lust for life to the lowliest, 
And the Cherub stands before God.

TENOR SOLO AND CHORUS

Joyously, as his suns speed
Through Heaven's glorious order, 
Hasten, Brothers, on your way, 
Exulting as a knight in victory.

CHORUS

Joy, beautiful spark of the gods, 
Daughter of Elysium, 
We enter fire imbibed, 
Heavenly, thy sanctuary.

Be embraced, Millions! 
This kiss for all the world! 
Brothers!, above the starry canopy
A loving father must dwell.

Can you sense the Creator, world? 
Seek him above the starry canopy.
Above the stars He must dwell.

Be embraced, Millions! 
This kiss for all the world! 
Brothers!, above the starry canopy
A loving father must dwell.

Can you sense the Creator, world? 
Seek him above the starry canopy.
Above the stars He must dwell.

Joy, beautiful spark of the gods, 
Daughter of Elysium, 
We enter fire imbibed, 
Heavenly, thy sanctuary.

Be embraced, Millions! 
This kiss for all the world! 
Brothers!, above the starry canopy
A loving father must dwell.

Can you sense the Creator, world? 
Seek him above the starry canopy.
Above the stars He must dwell.

Be embraced, Millions! 
This kiss for all the world! 
Brothers!, above the starry canopy
A loving father must dwell.

Can you sense the Creator, world? 
Seek him above the starry canopy.
Above the stars He must dwell.

Joy, daughter of Elysium
Thy magic reunites those
Whom stern custom has parted; 
All men will become brothers
Under thy gentle wing.

Be embraced, Millions! 
This kiss for all the world! 
Brothers!, above the starry canopy
A loving father must dwell.

Joy, beautiful spark of Gods!, 
Daughter of Elysium, 
Joy, beatiful spark of Gods!.

My Expressions - Youth

 The energy never wanes, The day never ends, nothing seems impossible and friends are friends...

Dilemmas in the eyes sparkling with hopes, what to do & what to miss, who will choose? 

Damn if the choice is right , Damned if not!! But teachers and a parents say, it matters a lot....

Faces and the books, Conscious of looks, anything trendy ( with or without merit) hooks....

 Know it all , rock and roll,  most precious is a trifle LoL..

Talking sense with stupid expressions and a surge of rebellious giving up..

Why people do not understand the real me.. I am a lion in fever..

Editorial note - Happy New Year

On the 5th Anniversary of Delta to Sigma , I thank all the readers  from US, UK, India, Germany, Poland, Latvia, South Korea, France, Poland, Russia and many other countries for their contributions, comments and suggestions.

Like all new year days, once again the air is buzz with greetings. Heartfelt wishes flowing across and reciprocated. No doubt everyone look forward to a bright and fulfilling year ahead but wishing the same for everyone elicit the most fundamental desire of humankind : Peace and Harmony.

Music is melodious because of mellifluous harmony of the seven different notes. Have you ever seen a large no. of audience captivated in a spellbound musical performance. Irrespective of their class, creed, language or ethnicity they all get inspired quite similarly and feel enriched. Something fundamental deep in everyone's life is tickled to create such unity of response. However , this something fundamental is not easily manifested. This something fundamental need inspirational performances to breakthrough the depths of hearts and unlock the caged humanitarian instincts.

Let the year of 2014 be the year of such inspirational performances on the stage of life by many of us to inspire many many of us to together unleash a wave of humanity that nurture humanity.. Lets all determine to change something with in us to bring about human revolution in our lives and give such inspirational performances..

Forbearance, I recently learned an explanation for this word which I find quite germane to the context: Good natured tolerance to the delay or incompetence perceived in the action of others..

I feel such forbearance shall be the core of all the human revolution that we need to undergo for the grand spectacle of inspirational performances.. 

Happy new Year to all of you and waiting to hear the stories of inspirational performances from all of you in the new year.. That alone can and shall make the new year A VERY VERY HAPPY NEW YEAR.
