"Ex Maria / pie Jesu / Ex Maria virgine / qui tollis / pie Domine Domine / pie" are from some christian prayers Credo, Agnus Dei and Dies irae: "[Holy Ghost] of [the Virgin] Mary / pitying Jesus / [Holy Ghost of the] virgin Mary / that takest away [the sins of the world] / pitying Lord Lord / pitying".
Lyrics starting from 6:43 are taken from the first line of the turkish poem Rindlerin Akşamı ("Eve of the Stoners") by Yahya Kemal Beyatlı (1884 - 1958). They say: "Dönülmez akşamın ufkundayız. Vakit çok geç." (in english: "we are at the dawn of an irreversible eve. It is way too late.") Here the full poem.

The opening line of Shpongle's "Around the World in a Tea Daze" is a poetic and philosophical statement about the power of the human mind. The lyricist suggests that despite the vastness of the universe, we have the ability to make sense of it thanks to our consciousness. By "folding" the universe into our minds, we are able to create meaning and understanding out of chaos. This is a profound idea that speaks to the power of the human mind and our ability to comprehend the complexity of the world around us.
The following two lines are a Sanskrit chant to the god Shiva, whose various names are mentioned. The lyrics create a sense of spiritual reverence and transport the listener to a different world. They also speak to the song's global themes, as "Around the World in a Tea Daze" blends many different cultures and sounds into one cohesive whole.
The final lyrics are a reference to the traditional Christian hymn "Pie Jesu," which is sung during the Requiem Mass. While the context of this reference is unclear, it adds yet another layer of spiritual complexity to the song. Overall, "Around the World in a Tea Daze" is a thought-provoking and multi-layered track that blurs the boundaries between cultures and philosophies.

For the Turkish lyrics: the poem is not actually like that, but the one in that song is from 'Voices of Istanbul by 'Q Up Arts.' and the actual lyrics I could hear were something like I wrote here. Myself I speak Turkish, but not native, so feel free to correct anything here and I'll edit it later.
