its a long time since this was posted and seeing as I have just spent the last 4 hours listening to this album over and over at different speeds and graphic/ speaker positions trying to find all those annoyingly distant voices I would say its;
0:58 crystal clear
1:06 now
1:12 floating
1:17 dissolving
1:20 let go
1:27 let go (repeats)
1:33 go
1:40 now
1:50 crystal clear
long gap
2:51 TEN (countdown starts)
98765432
3:19 ONE
3:21 now
5:36 crystal clear (repeats 3 times to fade out)
the end
hope this is helpful to someone.

Very helpful :) 0+1(I1) (tricky username to type right)

I particularly like the "let go -o" and "NOW!"

Having returned to this thread I now realise, that my reply above to the topics first few posts/subject may lead to a somewhat fragmented understanding as to the nature of my answer/post, anyone in doubt as to what my previous post was in answer to, should thus check the starting posts of this topic on page one.
SORRY & THANK YOU

Thanks for this, I1 - otherwise I'd have missed some interesting posts (such as Ugo's).

Writing down lyrics in invented languages (like Adiemus) has become, over time, one of my specialties. So here's another attempt at "Hibernaculum", this time syllable by syllable, with possible translations.

Lau-da-mus Do-mi-nò
[This is authentic Latin and means "Let's praise the Lord". It's found in several hymns.]
Cas-li-tùs do-mi-tò
[This is totally invented and has no meaning. "Cas-" is where EeToN's S-sound came from. :D]
Plè-ni sunt cæ-lì - "Cæ-" to be pronounced "ché" like Ché Guevara. :D
[This is authentic Latin, from the Catholic Sanctus prayer. It means "The Heavens are full"; the line in the prayer continues "of Thy glory".]
E-et mùn-dus ve-spe-rì
[This should mean "and the world in the evening" but it's grammatically wrong.]
Cas-li-tùs do-mi-tò [as above]
Lau-da-mus Do-mi-nò [as above]

The whole thing somehow reminds me of this...

Patres conscripti took a boat and went to Philippi
Boatum est upsettum, magno cum grandine venti.
Omnes drownderunt qui swim away non potuerunt.
Trumpeter unus erat, qui coatum scarlet habebat
Et magnum periwig, tied about with the tail of a dead pig.


:laugh: :laugh:

By the way, I don't think the words are really sung by a real monks' choir, but by people singing in that style - very like Gregorian. :)

When people say things like that it's usually a coded way of saying "this means a great deal indeed!"  :laugh: I can think of an interpretation of "domito" but I won't try people's patience by posting it here.  :cool:

Readers may also wish to read the posts on this other topic, as it may if you will excuse the pun, let there be light upon this topic! especially if they do not possess the album or video.
