[ Yele maoulo! ]
The conch shells are sounding,
The roosters haven’t crowed yet,
The sun hasn’t risen yet,
The workers are on Their feet!
Ranpono has begun!
Laborers, let’s put our hands togeTher,
Let’s join togeTher,
The work has begun!
Little by little, The bird makes its nest.
My broThers, my sisters,
Join togeTher, let’s move forward!
Heads togeTher, in harmony,
We will come to see The navel of an ant.
With perseverance, we will see The navel of an ant.
The load that you bear on your head falls on your shoulders.
Little by little, The bird makes its nets.
[ Yele maoulo! ]
Wasting time is not part of The game.
We must work today to harvest tomorrow.
Work is over!
The sun is setting,
The workers are dismissed,
A job well done.
Ranpono brings life.
Truly indeed... less

Recorded live on March 16, 2015, at First Presbyterian Church in Fort Lauderdale, Florida. Performed by The Radcliffe Choral Society of Harvard University. Director: Beth Willer.
The composer writes: "I wanted to make a piece about The creation story but I didn't want to highlight one religion's or culture's narrative over anoTher."
"It was important for me to try to find something universal, something present in all stories, or common to all cultures. I hit upon The idea of making a kind of checklist of everything that needed to be created to get The world to this point, without each individual culture's stories or myths or exoticisms. I went back to The first chapter of Genesis, to see what I could get out of my own culture's story, and I stripped away all The descriptions, adjectives, connectors and motivators. All that is left of Genesis in my text are The nouns, leaving a dispassionate list of everything created, in The order in ... less

lyrics (from The lamentations of Jeremia)
Wie liegt die Stadt so wüst,
die voll Volks war.
Alle ihre Tore stehen öde.
Wie liegen die Steine des Heiligtums vorn
auf allen Gassen zerstreut.
Er hat ein Feuer aus der Höhe
in meine Gebeine gesandt
und es lassen walten.
Ist das die Stadt, von der man sagt,
sie sei die allerschönste,
der sich das ganze Land freuet.
Sie hätte nicht gedacht, dass e... less
