Description

This is mainly a practice piece, to keep my hand up. Im procrastinating on finishing my Cats piece, and found this to fill the space that I am procrastinating. THe title Haec Osses arida means Those Dry Bones, or as many would know it by Dem Dry Bones. An old Spiritual talking about Ezekiel in the Valley of Dry bones, Here is the passage if you are not familiar:

The hand of the LORD was upon me, and he brought me out by the Spirit of the LORD and set me in the middle of a valley; it was full of bones. 2 He led me back and forth among them, and I saw a great many bones on the floor of the valley, bones that were very dry. 3 He asked me, "Son of man, can these bones live?"
I said, "O Sovereign LORD, you alone know."

4 Then he said to me, "Prophesy to these bones and say to them, 'Dry bones, hear the word of the LORD! 5 This is what the Sovereign LORD says to these bones: I will make breath [a] enter you, and you will come to life. 6 I will attach tendons to you and make flesh come upon you and cover you with skin; I will put breath in you, and you will come to life. Then you will know that I am the LORD.' "

7 So I prophesied as I was commanded. And as I was prophesying, there was a noise, a rattling sound, and the bones came together, bone to bone. 8 I looked, and tendons and flesh appeared on them and skin covered them, but there was no breath in them.

9 Then he said to me, "Prophesy to the breath; prophesy, son of man, and say to it, 'This is what the Sovereign LORD says: Come from the four winds, O breath, and breathe into these slain, that they may live.' " 10 So I prophesied as he commanded me, and breath entered them; they came to life and stood up on their feet—a vast army.

11 Then he said to me: "Son of man, these bones are the whole house of Israel. They say, 'Our bones are dried up and our hope is gone; we are cut off.' 12 Therefore prophesy and say to them: 'This is what the Sovereign LORD says: O my people, I am going to open your graves and bring you up from them; I will bring you back to the land of Israel. 13 Then you, my people, will know that I am the LORD, when I open your graves and bring you up from them. 14 I will put my Spirit in you and you will live, and I will settle you in your own land. Then you will know that I the LORD have spoken, and I have done it, declares the LORD.' "

So here is first the latin, then the english Translation, and also a link to a Youtube version of this song, now the arrangement is different from my version, but you'll get the idea [link]

Ezekiel haec osses arida cohaesit
Nunc verbum domini audite
Haec osses, haec osses, haec osses arida
verbum domini audiemus
Os digiti tui ossi pedis tuo cohaesitur
os pedis tui ossi tali tuo cohaesitur
os tali tui ossi tibiae tuo cohaesitur
os tibiae tui ossi patellae tuo cohaesitur
os patellae tui ossi femenis tuo cohaesitur
os femenis tui ossi coxendicis tuo cohaesitur
os coxendicis tui ossi vertabrae tuo cohaesitur
os vertabrae tui ossi scalpulae tuo cohaesitur
os scalpulae tui ossi colli tuo cohaesitur
os colli tui ossi capitis tuo cohaesitur
verbum domini audio
Haec osses in terra ambulabunt
verbum domini audiemus

Ezekiel connected them dry bones
Now Hear the word of the lord
Them Bones, Them Bones, Them Dry Bones
We hear the word of the Lord

The toe bone is connected to the foot bone
The foot bone is connected to the ankle bone
THe ankle bone is connected to the shin bone
The shin bone is connected to the knee bone
The knee bone is connected to the thigh bone
The thigh bone is connected to the hip bone
The hip bone is connected to the back bone
The back bone is connected to the shoulder bone
The Shoulder bone is connected to the neck bone
The neck bone is connected to the head bone
Now I hear the word of the lord
Those Dry bones got up and walked around
Now we hear the word of the lord!
