Lyrics: Hertrich/Winkler



And I seek sweet favours carved in gold

And I bare the light my breath to hold

Early seen unknown, but known too late

How came this gentle concord,

can You tell me was it fate ?



I cross the entrance, push the door

to crawling sadness hurting more

I see I hear the trembling sphere

Come and pass, alas, stay here !



And I breathed such vows love used to swear

It's too rich for use, for earth too dear

Now sadness is beloved and love we gain

I see me I see You and all I know is

hurt is lying plain



I pity silence sad,

I enjoyed the vital light

O that she knew, knew I did...

God alone in grievance lies,

I thank You for Your cries,

I leave You now, leave You now...



When I feel my insane blue

I dive into the see for You

and hope to drown by falling down

Weapons out to pierce my grief

I hide my blade alike in peace

Drop the curtain, I will leave



I don't care, I don't go,

I don't leave You when You will

I don't care, I don't go,

when You cease my love to kill



Burning ice and wondrous flaming snow

And I see more devils hell can hold

I will leave the break of day

No more passion, no more lust

and only fume of sigh will stay
