Salt, Sulfur and Mercury Ин-Тайэр -En

An emerald, an opal and nephrite
Are precious stones of sage,
And when the bitter sugar will burn down –
We will go to drink absinthe in Eleusis.
In a mysterious haven of dreams,
Where a snow-white cypress stands,
We will meet Demetra’s love
And consolation in Persephone’s hands.
Be calm – let in the world of the living
All the fields be covered by snow,
Forget about them , Osiris,
And be in Ialu with us.
Near the throne take a cup
Of devoted truths with a live water,
You deserved light and calmness,
And a saint caduceus of Trismegist.
The consecrated – your Triumph is great!
It was foreseen by the oracles,
And Poimandres – a Divine Mind
Will smile with a green sunrise.
Smile in return – and drink
Your cup of sage until the end,
Let Ishtar and the Moon whisper
How absinthe is made in Eleusis.
