Lyrics:
In vento cogitatio, spirat in vento
E vacuo lux elucet, lux e vacuo
E somno somnia cre'ta, somnia e somno
In clara umbra creatum versat
In vento spiritus flat, spiritus in vento
In fusco lumen ignescit, lumen in fusco
E somnis verita nata est verita nata
E nihil omnia cre'ta sunt omnia creata
Pel Amar vinya-onant
Feä raniel vilyadessë sira
Lindelë sama calad
Oloriello illuvë onant
Ëa
Here is the translation. The first two stanzas are in Latin and the last in Elvish apparently. (I've heard that it's Quenya and Sindarin from different places. I know fuck-all about LOTR, but am curious about this, so if you know I would be appreciative if you would leave a comment.) Anyway, here's the translation:
Thought blows in the wind, in the wind
Light shines from the void, light from the void
Dreams awaken out of sleep, dreams out of sleep
Creation twirls in a bright shadow
Spirit flows in the wind, spirit in the wind
Light burns in darkness, light in darkness
Truth is born out of dreams; truth is born
All is created out of nothing; all is created
Around the new-born world
Wandering spirit flows in the wind
Music joins light
All is born from a dream
Let it be
"Rest now Hero of (your aspect here), and in time you will ascend and fulfill your role in this game. When it happens, you will protect Skaia in the darkest of times...and win."
This is brilliant. The best flash scene for this, I reckon, is when Becnoir is finally defeated, and Skaians reunite under harmony, Prospit and Derse no longer enemies, but twins sharing the same journey. Then the God Tier kids disappear in balls of light, returning to their Universe, waking on their beds as if nothing had happened and it was all a dream, but am wearing necklaces which display their God Tier symbols.
o_o i have a necklace of time :O
"Thought blows in the wind, in the wind
Light shines from the void, light from the void
Dreams awaken out of sleep, dreams out of sleep"
Take a look at the updates preceding and following the Gigapause.
i just spent fifteen minutes using this song as a latin translation exercise
that was fun as hell
Hopefully you realized the 2nd half is in Tolkin's Elvilsh, or that would have been really hard
The accents gave it away, so yup. You're right - would have been awkward if i hadn't figured that out
@Machmatic Thank you for mentioning this! I don't remember the translation being there when I posted this video but I very well could have missed it.
Petition for this song to play on the very last panel of homestuck. Whether it's a sad or a happy ending, this song NEEDS to be playing in the background :')
Well, technically this song appeared nearly five years ago as an instrumental(Skies of Skaia) in [S] Go On ==>, when Nanna told John about Skaia. But yeah it'd be appropriate to make a reappearance soon in the form of this beautiful vocal remix.
it was part of the first song "Creata" of the last homestuck album, Vol. 10
LATIN AND ELVISH this is excellent
all the Coraline vibes. ALL OF THEM
+Lepitorus
OMY YES
So glad to hear this song be used in "Creata" on Homestuck's newest album
idk why but the singer sounds like Garnet.
listening to this whole album through headphones when you can't sleep at 2 am because your mind just wants to dream is the most magical feeling ever
it inspired a vision for me and i remember it to this day
Out of all the hs songs this song and expecially the voice just made me cry a river from how beautiful it was :000
This reminds me of something that would be in the movie Coraline.. It's got to be one of the best and most memorable songs in Homestuck, hands down.
Hi, I love Homestuck again.
I don't know if it's the fact that there is Latin AND Elvish (omg omg i'm a lotr fan okay...) in this song, or the fact that every time I listen to it I get chills and goosebumps, but....
I would be extremely frustrated if this is not in one of the Homestuck flashes in some way.
The land of chess and sky...
so I know absofuckinglutely nothing about homestuck but I heard this on an 8tracks playlist and fell in love.
only the best webcoming evermade, but also too complicated and long. It like having to read 6 books, with animation and music and videos and games inside. A long journey that asks for a lot and delivers even more for those choose to follow this amazing adventure of Gods, Kids, Aliens and universe changing games
...until the end, which most people hate.
The camera pans out, and the singing of the warriors grows louder. The screen fades to white, credits roll, the end.
Wow....this is beautiful. *~*
Beautiful.
this song is so beautiful uwu
Because the second language looks and sounds similar to Finnish, then it is indeed Quenya. Tolkien was heavily influenced by Finnish when he devised Quenya. Sindarin, on the other hand, was heavily influenced by Welsh.
headcannon that its the dolorosa's voice
idk why.
This song is fantastic. It skyrocketed up my favorite list for Homestuck songs.
It sounds like...idk. A little bit Homestuck, Halo, Assassin's Creed and something awesome.
Homestuck is awsome
mostly sounds like dragon's dogma to me
beautiful
Slowly, the rest of the crowd lifts their heads to the sky and begins to sing in rounds. Skaia appears, and the glorious croak of the god-frog is heard. The space player assists the frog and creates the new universe. The post-Scratch kids go up to claim their prize, but hesitate. The pre-Scratch kids hover from a distance.
One of the post-Scratch kids point out that they couldn't have won in the null universe without them, and the pre-scratch kids come over. Together they claim their prize.
I thought it was pretty and then the lyrics came on and I *lit up* cause only a few homestuck songs have lyrics
I love this song! It's so soothing and peaceful and it gives me hope for the characters.
For some reason I always see PM singing this... I have no idea why.
Love the song and cant wait to see how (if he does) hussie uses this song in homestuck ÒuÓ
returning to their universe? you do remember the part that said that earth was going to be destroyed, and that they would become gods for the universe they were to create.
Look it's grim dark rose singing!
You are vastly overestimating the lungs of a thirteen-year-old girl. Also, there's no such thing as soprano at that age.
Form This Way I believe she was older when she went grimdark, no?
***** The entirety of the beta session took place over one day, John's birthday. Everybody was thirteen then.
Latin and Tolkein's elven language that I forget the name of. Best combo.
Hot diggity dang this song is freaking gorgeous
Calling it. This will be the ending song.
+ ha! You were wrong! Person with no name! :U
such a pretty song! ^w^
I imagine in this scene, there's some big battle going on. Someone gets really upset about the battle and everything and just randomly starts singing this song. Everyone stops fighting and stares at them, and they just smile as they sing. Slowly they realize the battle's already been won: Lord English is dead, and the post-Scratch kids have won their game, through some crazy means. (continue in my next comment)
And now I'm sad.
this is hands down the most beautiful song from hs
I don't care if I have to arrange the music myself, I shall sing this for contest!
@SpottedleafCCRVMK Sadly, there is a very good chance of that never happening. There's just so many albums that the seriously vast majority of the music doesn't really get any use.
This song. It fills me with happy :3
No one seems to notice its similarity to a certain last song on volume 1... either that or they just thought it would be dumb to post a comment on that obvious fact.
@Eatingyoursocks Perhaps a bit. Though the different languages really make a difference.
412th like... Damn I was so close. Anyways this is a really good song to try to fall asleep to.
I knew the first part (sorta) cause i am taking latin wonderful song
But everything changed, when Andrew Hussie attacked...
What language is the singer singing in? It sounds kind of french, but I could be completely wrong for all I know.
IrishPixie2342 It's a combination of Latin and Sindarin (or some say Quenyan) ((Sindarin and Quenyan are fictional languages devised by J. R. R. Tolkien))
That would make no sense
Like thats cute but would make no sense and would be totally unfriendly to canon
Also what would happen to the trolls?
As if that will happen.
unfortunately we know now that that's not likey to happen
my dumbass thought the thumbnail said "eyyyy thats pretty good"
I hear that song when I need inspiration, and oddly enough all of the rest songs don't inspire me at all
Skaia is creativity's form. It is the crucible of Space, and it will, as time passes, create a universe.
Pp caca
no, das gay
