🇬🇧EN:
Hoson zēs, phainou – As long as you live, shine! ✨
In life 🌱 we can and should(!) show who we are and let our inner self unfold. 🌸

These words, written nearly 2000 years ago in Ancient Greek 🏛️, were found on a tombstone in Tralleis.
They encourage us to recognize our own talents 🌟 and bring them into the world. 🌍
We should not focus too long on grief but make the best of the precious time ⏳ we are given. 💖

Because, as it continues:
To telos ho chronos apaitei – Time brings the end on its own!

🇩🇪DE:
Hoson zēs, phainou – Solange du lebst, leuchte! ✨

Im Leben 🌱 können und sollten(!) wir zeigen, wer wir sind und unser Inneres zur Entfaltung bringen. 🌸

Diese vor knapp 2000 Jahren in altgriechischer Sprache 🏛️ verfassten Worte stammen von einem Grabstein in Tralleis.
Sie ermutigen dazu, die eigenen Talente 🌟 zu erkennen und diese in die Welt 🌍 zu tragen.
Wir sollen den Fokus nicht zu lang auf die Trauer legen, sondern die kostbare Zeit ⏳, die uns gegeben ist, bestmöglich nutzen. 💖

Denn, wie es weiter heißt:
To telos ho chronos apaitei – Das Ende bringt die Zeit von selbst!

Akela Blue - Hoson zēs, phainou! (Live Loop Improv)

The melody is taken from the only complete ancient Greek musical composition to survive from antiquity, the so-called "Seikilos hymn." Performed on Moog Matriarch, DFAM, SubHarmonicon, and Mavis, with Korg SQ-64 sequencer.

The text of Seikilos's song, roughly translated into English, is: "While you live, shine; don't let anything cause you too much grief; life is short, and time demands payment in the end."

Live and Shine (Seikilos variation 1)

Seikilos variation 2
