Miserere Mei
Myriads Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
I view the vast horizon
Planets drift by in the nebula
Grand movements paralyze me
My reflection seem to be endless
Embellished thoughts of limitless
Starlight gather
Path of destiny
Proud forest rises towards the sky,
In awe I stand silent
Green path of life amalgamates
With my own belief
Follow me further through
This flight of chaos
In misery and pain I am,
I wander through this cherished path
In despair I am pitiful,
Haunted by a brooding doubt
Please assuage this agony
And wash away my misery,
Into great oceans and grand seas
Where the source of life began
Melting into the universe
Being part of the cosmos
The starless night embraces me
My thoughts are bewildered
Am I misplaced here in this world,
Alone in my grief?
Procreate life and let it grow
In outlandish landscapes
Feeling subordinated,
Outshined by earth
Follow me further through
This flight of chaos
In misery and pain I am,
I wander through this cherished path
In despair I am pitiful,
Haunted by a brooding doubt
Please assuage this agony
And wash away my misery,
Into great oceans and grand seas
Where the source of life began
Miserere mei Deus
Secundum magnam
Misericordiam tuam
Et secundum multitudinem
Miserationum tuarum
Dele iniquitatem meam
Anguish in me, kills me, relieves me
I weaken now compared to nature
I am nothing, please bear with me
Upon this fertile planet
I stand in broad daylight
I am caressed gently by a sun which
Enlightens my mind
It never perceived my shadow
Nor my grief and my sorrow
I am merging into the fire
Cosmic unity
Follow me further through
This flight of chaos
In misery and pain I am,
I wander through this cherished path
In despair I am pitiful,
Haunted by a brooding doubt
Please assuage this agony
And wash away my misery,
Into great oceans and grand seas
Where the source of life began
Am I infused by the earth?
Did the world have a birth?
Life filled by fertility
In an astral unity
Elements perpetually,
Circling eternally
Affliction in me, helps me, relieves me
Like the falling star on the firmament
I am the great horizon
Planets drift by in the nebula
Grand movements encapsulate me
The universe seems to be endless
The song "Miserere Mei" by Myriads reflects on the themes of vastness, cosmic unity, and existential crisis. The opening lines use a metaphor of a falling star to depict the singer's perspective on the vast horizon, where they see planets drifting in the nebula. The grand movements of the universe leave the singer paralyzed with awe, and their reflection seems to be endless.
The song further explores the singer's sense of isolation and despair, as they wander through their cherished path of life haunted by brooding doubts. They ask for mercy from God and wish for their misery to be washed away in the great oceans where the source of life began. The song concludes on a note of cosmic unity, where the singer muses about merging into the fire of the universe and becoming one with the elements that circle eternally.

Like the falling star on the firmament
I am an object in motion, descending from above
I view the vast horizon
I behold a landscape of infinite scope
Planets drift by in the nebula
Celestial bodies move in a swirling mist
Grand movements paralyze me
The majesty of the universe overwhelms me
My reflection seem to be endless
I see myself repeated in an endless cycle
Embellished thoughts of limitless
My mind is filled with limitless possibilities
Starlight gather
The light of the stars congeals around me
The outer rim of sanity
The edge of what we call sane behavior
Path of destiny
The course of my life predetermined
Proud forest rises towards the sky,
A crowd of trees soars up into the sky
In awe I stand silent
I am struck with wonder and speechlessness
Green path of life amalgamates
The way of nature blends with my own beliefs
With my own belief
Guided by my personal understanding of the world
Follow me further through
Accompany me further along my journey
This flight of chaos
The tumultuous journey I am experiencing
In misery and pain I am,
I am suffering and in distress
I wander through this cherished path
I travel through this path that I cherish
In despair I am pitiful,
I am pitiable in my hopelessness
Haunted by a brooding doubt
A persistent uncertainty plagues me
Please assuage this agony
Please alleviate my intense pain
And wash away my misery,
Remove my profound sorrow
Into great oceans and grand seas
Into vast bodies of water
Where the source of life began
Where the origin of life first arose
Melting into the universe
Fusing with the vast cosmos
Being part of the cosmos
Existing as a component of the whole universe
The starless night embraces me
The dark, starry sky envelops me
My thoughts are bewildered
My mind is confused and perplexed
Am I misplaced here in this world,
Do I belong in this universe?
Alone in my grief?
Isolated in my sadness?
Procreate life and let it grow
Create new life and allow it to flourish
In outlandish landscapes
In strange and unfamiliar environments
Feeling subordinated,
Experiencing a sense of submission
Outshined by earth
Surpassed by the majesty of the natural world
Miserere mei Deus
Have mercy on me, God
Secundum magnam
According to your great
Misericordiam tuam
Mercy
Et secundum multitudinem
And according to the multitude
Miserationum tuarum
Of your compassionate deeds
Dele iniquitatem meam
Erase my sins
Anguish in me, kills me, relieves me
My suffering both kills me and provides me relief
I weaken now compared to nature
My strength pales in comparison to that of the natural world
I am nothing, please bear with me
I am insignificant, please tolerate my presence
Upon this fertile planet
On this flourishing world
I stand in broad daylight
I exist in full view of the sun
I am caressed gently by a sun which
I am tenderly touched by a sun
Enlightens my mind
Illuminates my thoughts and soul
It never perceived my shadow
The sun never took note of my fleeting presence
Nor my grief and my sorrow
Nor my sadness and suffering
I am merging into the fire
I am becoming a part of the sun's power and energy
Cosmic unity
The unifying force of the cosmos
Am I infused by the earth?
Am I imbued with the power of the earth?
Did the world have a birth?
Did the planet come into being at some point?
Life filled by fertility
Life sustained through fecundity
In an astral unity
As part of the vast, interconnection universe
Elements perpetually,
Basic components eternal and unchanging
Circling eternally
Moving in a constant cycle without end
Affliction in me, helps me, relieves me
My troubles assist me and provide me with relief
I am the great horizon
I am a vast expanse, a limit of what we can see
Grand movements encapsulate me
The magnificent power of the cosmos surrounds me
The universe seems to be endless
The expanse of the cosmos appears infinite
