Kyrie eleison

Ghost 04:35
I used to say oh no no no and now I am I’m going away If I stay it’s a sway I don’t wanna know I take what I need and then I go It’s just a frustration delay And the way that you say That we never know Oh my name in your voice an hour ago Give me a lie Non mais give me a lie To move on Give me anything else but this Stop this Tell me the truth I won’t be by your side I can’t take it wanna flee wanna hide Come on come on take me for ride And then I’m back there in the dark I’m just there Oh yeah Give me a lie To move on Give it to me Again

(Transliteration) Pritourize Planinata Che zatrupa dva ovchera Che zatrupa dva ovchera Dva ovchera dva drugaria Progovaria planinata Oi vi vazi dva ovcharia Liube jali den do pladne Maika jali chak do groba

Da pacem 03:38
Da pacem Domine Quia non est alius Qui pugnet pronobis In diebus nostris Da pacem Domine Quia non est alius Nisi tu deus noster Quia non est alius In diebus nostris Da pacem Domine

(Transliteration) Strati na angelaki doumasche Angelaki stari, džanam, kumita Ot kak si trgnal, džanam, kumita Ti se nai-napre džanam, vrveshe

Oneness 05:52
O thou O breathing oneness You reminder of our holy nature Breathe within me It’s a shrine inside We are doing it together Forever and ever The kingdom of light is coming The inner sound is shimmering and swirls around Amen Each day grant us what we need Erase the marks of pain and greed And lead us not into distraction Lest we never forget our holy nature And free us and inspire In spite of our dear failures This song beautifies all Unifies all Forever and ever For all is the kingdom and the power and the glory Forever and everSealed in trust and faith With all my endeavour Forever and ever Amen

about

First album of ten tracks in a ten-year career, Da pacem is the quintessence of a quest that combines vocal performance and a sense of the sacred. In Latin, Greek, Bulgarian and English, Mykalle embodies a contemporary priestess with her own versions of liturgical texts and a voice that makes grace resonate within. With poignant performances, beats and electronic choral textures, her music seeks to soothe and open up unexplored dimensions.

Premier album de dix chansons pour dix ans de carrière, Da pacem est la quintessence d'une quête qui croise performance vocale et sens du sacré. En latin, grec, bulgare et anglais, Mykalle incarne une prêtresse contemporaine avec ses propres versions des textes liturgiques et une voix qui fait résonner la grâce en soi. Avec ses performances poignantes, ses beats et textures électroniques chorales, sa musique cherche à apaiser et ouvrir des dimensions inexplorées.
