"Dobru noc, ma mila, dobru noc;
Necht' ti je sam Pan Buh na pomoc.
Dobru noc, dobre spi;
Necht' se ti snivaju sladke sny.
Dobru noc, dobre spi;
Necht' se ti snivaju sladke sny.
Dobru noc, ma mila dobru noc.
Necht' ti je sam Pan Buh na pomoc.
Dobru noc, dobre spi;
Necht' se ti snivaju o mne sny.
Dobru noc, dobre spi;
Necht' se ti snivaju o mne sny, o mne sny."

Fragments of Loving Spores (feat. Noah Hendricks)

"It was cold and dark, but the warmth came from within. Like a burning, like a blooming of flesh and steel. Ten by ten thousand, it came and went without sound or prayer. Only light, and heat. There was never anything half as pure, never a greater antiseptic. Once the light had fled, there were only the empty homes left behind in quiet and dignity. Only rooms without light or shadow, bare of window or door."

Music for Empty Homes

"Agnus Dei, qui tollis peccata mundi, miserere nobis.
 Agnus Dei, qui tollis peccata mundi, miserere nobis.
 Agnus Dei, qui tollis peccata mundi, dona nobis pacem."
 
"Give back my father, give back my mother;
 Give grandpa back, grandma back;
 Give my sons and daughters back.
 Give me back myself,
 Give back the human race.
 As long as this life lasts, this life,
 Give back peace
 That will never end."

Photograph by Yōsuke Yamahata: "Before noon on August 10, 1945, a mother and her son have received a boiled rice ball from an emergency relief party. One thousand and two hundred meters south-southeast of Ground Zero, Nagasaki."
