Текст песни Преп. Симеон Новый Богослов - Монах есть тот, кто миру непричастен

The monk is the one who was not involved in the world,
Who speaks always with only one God,
Who, seeing God, he is seeing
Loving Him, love Him, he is
And becoming light always shines.
Monk praise - he still poor,
In the house are invited - he still stranger.
About a marvelous, incredible miracle!
Among the immense wealth - I need,
Possessing many - there I am poor,
Among the abundance of water - I am haunted by thirst.
Who will give me what I already have?
And where I find him whom I see?
As a restraint that is in the heart breathing,
But beyond all, invisible, dwells?
Having ears hear - let him hear
According madman awe listening!
