Translation
Bilingual
Albeit behind the eyes thou hast (My eyes hold the eventide)
A flame enshroud'd in its blackness (Thro' which I 'hold naught else but the raven)
Burning without the faintest breeze (Sleep my dearest ones)
Teach me, dearest, the reason wherefore thou by such angst mark'd art (Mind not the palling velvet darkness)
Wherefore is here loneliness? (Mark'd art)
Infinite hollowness
In which my thoughts echo
To the shadows I whisper
With the shadows I waltz
Bear me; I am not the plague
Altho' nightclad death, mayhap?
ย
Dance no longer with the shadows (Dare not naysaying my grant)
Dance no longer with the dead in the graveyard (Vanish with me abaft the unlight! O! the taste on thine lips)
Dance with me the mephisto waltz (A trickling deep red love)
Wedlock 'twixt day and night (Everlasting lightheart'dness)
Offer me relief fro the sunrays (A kiss for thee my dear)
ย
Eternally and ne'erendingly (Ah! such delight I sense)
A soulsister of thine I am (Savour the bitter grapes of life)
Let me openly greet thy kiss
The most loving and caring bites
ย
Grant me thineself!
I bore the woe in my heart
As I depart embrace me (My heart was shatter'd into its tithe)
And in paltry time will I reawake (Save yet are its chambers in flood)
I love thee
I love thee
I love thee
ย
I love thee
