Oh, mylord, you never returned

I was waiting for you my love



You told me to see

the scarlet leaves, the scarlet leaves

when they had fallen on the earth

you would have returned

you would have returned



Oh mylord, now I'm laying on the ground

I'm still waiting for you, my love

Oh mylord, now I'm laying on the cold ground

and I'm still waiting for you, my love



Now I fell the scarlet leaves

flying over me, flying over me

please, please, come to me

and spread my ashes among scarlet leaves



I would like to flutter with them

I would like to have wings

I would like to feel breeze and air

I would like to be wind



Seasons have passed and I'm still alone

in the breeze in the snow, my love



With the eyes of my soul

I will nevermore

see scarlet leaves

the feeble eyes of my soul

now they are closed

I will never return



Oh, mylord, now that you've returned

I'll never return
