Maria Callas (Greek: Μαρία Κάλλας) (December 2, 1923 - September 16, 1977) was an American-born Greek soprano and one of the most renowned opera singers of the 20th century. She combined an impressive bel canto technique, a wide-ranging voice and great dramatic gifts. An extremely versatile singer, her repertoire ranged from classical opera seria to the bel canto operas of Donizetti, Bellini and Rossini; further, to the works of Verdi and Puccini; and, in her early career, to the music dramas of Wagner. Her remarkable musical and dramatic talents led to her being hailed as La Divina... en.wikipedia.org Lyrics & English Translation Pure Goddess, whose silver covers These sacred ancient plants, We turn to your lovely face Unclouded and without veil... Temper, oh Goddess, The hardening of you ardent spirits Temper your bold zeal, Scatter peace across the earth Thou make reign in the sky...
