Στην αρχή.

Νύχτα.
Γη.
Φως και σκοτάδι.
Σας χαιρετίζω!
Sing the first five lines as if a single sentence, but clearly pronouncing the words, as part of the power of Mantras is that they are believed to have power over us. They have an innate power to change the way we think and feel, giving us a greater capacity to reach states of being that help to enlighten us. The last two lines individually.
Because Mantras are so central to Hindu prayer, they tend to be seen as Hindu or Eastern practice, but prayer is universally seen as a means to reach into the higher plane, to make contact with the divine, so if this helps in some way, we should go for it.
As always, if you see errors in my Greek (or the other languages) let me know.
Pronunciation:
STEEN ahr-HEE (when I place an H in initial position take it as an aspirated and slightly guttural H sound similar to the CH in Scottish)
HAH-ohs
EH-roh-tahs
NEE-hta
GEE
eh-lah-FREESS keh skoh-TAH-dhee (dh is a soft TH sound, slightly voiced but not heavily aspirated)
SAHS heh-reh-TEE-zoh
