Balthasar Oli Naisten Mies

Minp kerron teille,
mit kaupungilla kuiskittiin:
Balthasarin asunnossa niin
useinkin liioiteltiin...
Liioiteltiin juomingeissa,
viikkoja liioiteltiin!
Olutta keralla spriin
kuiviin kurkkuihin kaadettiin.
Huhuttiinpa huonomaineisten
naistenkin iltaisin vierailevan
ja enkeleiden kuiskailevan:
"Balthasar, kuulehan!..."
Ja min tiedn kyll,
mit miehet naisilta tahtovat...
ja nekin teist tietvt,
jotka tarkoin tuumivat.
Balthasar on irstailija, joka liioitellut on,
ruoassa ja juomassakin ollut kohtuuton (on, on)
orgioita ja haureutta ja syntej sodoman!
Vuosia enkelit varoittelivat: "Balthasar, kuulehan..."
Rudolf tiesi kuolemattomuudesta
ja Balthasar ties
naiset, sill Balthasar
oli naisten mies.
Ja min puolestani tiesin,
mit naista se keittin vei...
min tiesin kyll
mutta Balthasar tiennyt ei.
Mutta taivas yksin tiet
miksi ers sunnuntai
hn lyijy sydkseen sai
ja pukunsa puusta kai.
Minp kerron teille,
mit kaupungilla kuiskittiin:
Balthasarin asunnossa niin
useinkin liioiteltiin.
Balthasar on puupalttoossa! Joku liioitellut on,
hairahtunut hornantyhn, ollut kohtuuton (on, on)
hairahtunut hornantyhn, syntiin sodoman!
Vuosia enkelit varoittelivat: " Balthasar, kuulehan..."
Enkelit lauloivat:
Balthasar haudattiin
yhteisasunnon takapihan multiin kuohkeisiin.

But the issue is not only life and death but our existence before God and our being judged by him. All of us were sinners before him and worthy of condemnation.

We no longer dare to believe in beauty and we make of it a mere appearance in order the more easily to dispose of it.

If one does away with the fact of the Resurrection, one also does away with the Cross, for both stand and fall together, and one would then have to find a new center for the whole message of the gospel.

The first attempt at a response: there must have been a fall, a decline, and the road to salvation can only be the return of the sensible finite into the intelligible infinite.

The One, the Good, the True, and the Beautiful, these are what we call the transcendental attributes of Being, because they surpass all the limits of essences and are coextensive with Being.

Our situation today shows that beauty demands for itself at least as much courage and decision as do truth and goodness, and she will not allow herself to be separated and banned from her two sisters without taking them along with herself in an act of mysterious vengeance.

St. Paul would say to the philosophers that God created man so that he would seek the Divine, try to attain the Divine. That is why all pre-Christian philosophy is theological at its summit.

It is, finally, a word is untimely in three different senses, and bearing it as one's treasure will not win one anyone's favours; one rather risks finding oneself outside everyone's camp... Beauty is the word that shall be our first.

Not longer loved or fostered by religion, beauty is lifted from its face as a mask, and its absence exposes features on that face which threaten to become incomprehensible to man.

Whoever removes the Cross and its interpretation by the New Testament from the center, in order to replace it, for example, with the social commitment of Jesus to the oppressed as a new center, no longer stands in continuity with the apostolic faith.

The Christian response is contained in these two fundamental dogmas: that of the Trinity and that of the Incarnation. In the trinitarian dogma God is one, good, true, and beautiful because he is essentially Love, and Love supposes the one, the other, and their unity.

Beauty is the disinterested one, without which the ancient world refused to understand itself, a word which both imperceptibly and yet unmistakably has bid farewell to our new world, a world of interests, leaving it to its own avarice and sadness.

If God wishes to reveal the love that he harbors for the world, this love has to be something that the world can recognize, in spite of, or in fact in, its being wholly other.
