Covenant Prayers

Covenant prayers is the twenty first track of the Halo 5: Guardians Original Soundtrack. The song can be heard playing multiple times throughout the Sanghelios missions. In addition the first verse of the song can be heard sung by Unggoy around a holographic projection of a Guardian during Battle of Sunaion. The lyrics of the song talk about how the Covenant wants the Guardian to rest in peace and not be awakened. Since the lyrics are in Sangheili no translation of the entire part has been given. Only a rough translation of an unspecified portion of the song is available through the audio logs in Halo 5.

Rough Translation of unknown excerpt
Oh Guardian, may this prayer keep him asleep forever. He keeps our world safe and protects the Covenant. The Domain cannot be opened so long as he stays sleeping. Oh Guardian, magnificent sleeper!
