BITTER SONG FOR THE DEAD

...SADNESS...
...TORMENTS...
...BITTERNESS...
...DEADNESS...

MY PRIDE - LEFT BEHIND SO FAR AWAY
BURIED WAY DOWN AT THE BOTTOM OF SPLENDOUR AND MAJESTY
I ERASED THE PAST FROM LIVING MEMORY
I BURNED THE BRIDGES ON THE RIVERS OF PAST MOMENTS

CAN THE DEAD FEEL THE PAIN, TELL ME,
CAN THEY DREAM?

LISTEN,
WIND IS SINGING HIS SONG
IT IS A BITTER SONG FOR THE DEAD

SILENCE AROUND MY GRAVE SEEMS SO FAMILIAR
WITH ITS TRANQUILLITY CARESSES WEARY EARS
CALMLY I AM WATCHING MY FIRE-BURNT SKY
I TURN BACK, DISAPPEARING INTO SHADOWS

LOOK,
RAIN IS CRYING
IT IS A BITTER SONG FOR THE DEAD

AND THE WORDS WILL FADE
AND THE STARS WILL DIE
EVERYTHING WILL PASS
BUT SORROW REMAINS
