Lyrics
🪨 „Gaia – Die Erste“
Ein Lied der Erde, tief, ruhig und ehrfürchtig – mit sanfter Kraft
1. Strophe – Vor dem Wort
Bevor der Himmel sich spannte,
bevor die Zeit sich regte,
war da ein Atmen – tief und rund,
ein Herz aus Stein, das lebte.
2. Strophe – Die Geburt der Welt
Sie war das Tal, der erste Baum,
der Staub im Himmelsbogen,
sie war das Lied, das niemand sang –
und doch in allem woben.
> „Gaia, mḗtēr pántōn,
anḗrchon chthón –
phér' hēmâs en nóstōi,
en sígē kai gēnēsei.“
(„Gaia, Mutter aller,
ursprüngliche Erde –
führe uns in Rückkehr,
in Stille und Geburt.“)
3. Strophe – Was sie trägt
Sie trägt die Städte, Kriege, Saat,
die Flügel, die uns heben.
Doch hört sie nie ein einzig Wort –
und bleibt doch treu dem Leben.
4. Strophe – Die Bitte
O Mutter, schwer, du alte Kraft,
vergiss uns nicht, vergib.
Wir singen dich mit Atemton –
sei unser Herz, das blieb.
