Christology in Javanese mind

I have just finished reading the book of Christology by St. Nektarios. What a great experience and joy I have when by His Providence, I was allowed to taste such brilliant work of our father. After reading the whole part of the book which discuss about the awaited Messiah, how The Messiah fulfill the greatest and deepest desire of all mankind of all nations, that His prophesied coming by prophets and what was told by Moses and Old Testament was perfectly and unshakably, in the perfect time and place fulfilled. Then St. Nektarios also contemplated upon the brilliance of Christian Faith

Indeed, this is a great book and very strengthening the faith in Christ. And in another time, I found that there is a very interesting summary of this book which is nicely depicted by the traditional song in Javanese, and what a tremendous truth it is when enlightened by Light of Incarnation of The Logos. Here is the song (you can download it here)

Lir-ilir, Lir-ilir, tandure wis sumilir, [the wind blows, Lir ilir, the new Shoot springs up]
tak ijo royo royo, tak sengguh penganten anyar. [This seems very fresh and green, I supposed this is a new bridegroom]
Bocah angon, bocah angon, penekna blimbing kuwi, [son the shepherd, would you please climb that starfruit tree]
lunyu-lunyu peneken, kanggo masuh dodotira. [although that tree is very slippery, but to get the royal garment washed, please]
Dodotira, dodotira, kumitir bedhah ing pinggir, [the garment, your royal garment is tore in the side]
dondomana, jlumatana, kanggo seba mengko sore. [Knit and mend it as preparation to face your (king) this evening]
Mumpung gedhe rembulane, mumpung jembar kalangane, Ya surak-a surak horeeee! [Since it is while in the Light of Bright Moon, still broad is its hello, [joyfully] keep the diligence with you].

Father Daniel once gave us very good explanation of this poetic symbolism. And he wrote them in a Javanese blog. Because of limited time, and also to keep this post readable and brief, I will continue it in the next post. Forgive me.

Lord Jesus Christ, the Son of God, have mercy on me a sinner!
