The unutterable

G. Bantock

I am all that hath been, is, and shall be,

And my veil hath no mortal yet uncovered.

I was yesterday, and I know the morrow,

I am the lonely one, the ever-silent,

Sleeping upon the heaven's endless ocean.

I am Death and Birth, the night and morning,

Unfathomed mystery surrounds me.

From the beginning was my being,

Mightier than speech, my voice is silence!
