Mother's eyes are sparkling diamonds,

Still the moon shows no light

This rose is withered, may God deliver

The rake at the gates of hell tonight

Yigh!



I wish that they could walk forever,

On the earth, alone, unfettered

Til they pray for consolation,

Til they beg for sweet damnation

Then I'll come and bring them water,

Bring them hope, bring them laughter

Raise their hopes so sad and sunken

Slash them up as they lie there drunken

Push them down into the foul mud

‘Til they choke up on their own blood

Drag them out before their last breath

To take away the mercy of death



Mother's eyes are sparkling diamonds

Still the moon shows no light

This rose is withered, may God deliver

The rake at the gates of hell tonight

Yigh!



Mother's eyes are sparkling diamonds

Still the moon shows no light

This rose is withered, may God deliver

The rake at the Gates of Hell tonight



Mother's eyes are sparkling diamonds

Still the moon shows no light

This rose is withered, may God deliver

The rake at the gates of hell tonight
