Lyrics

Translation
Bilingual
Mortal and condemned
Black veiled shapes of mourning
Spirits cloaked by glooming reverence
ย
Sonorous tolls the funeral bell
Heads bowed follow in procession
Eyes bedimmed with tears
Lament for the loss endured
ย
Stillness
As the birds have ceased their song
And heavy rain begins to pour
To rest eternally
ย
A futile prayer floats like mist
To rest eternally
ย
The rope gives way
Slow, but steady
Into the cold unknown
To receive as had been given
ย
Under sorrow's unrelenting spell thou shalt wander
Till thou return to the earth out of which thou wast taken
For dust thou art, and unto dust thou shalt return
ย
All paths converge
In final knowing
Into quiet eternity
All shall venture
ย
Dead drops the wilted wreath
To earth's sodden swansong
And the eerie dirge
Of the shovels' scrape
Mortal and condemned
Left behind
As the dreaded day unfolds
ย
When mourners drift
Like scattered ash
And silver tears dry
By callous winds
When once more
The weight is lifted
Unbearable
But fleeting
ย
As meager mortals
We pass from mirthless grounds
Into waters of forgetfulness
ย
When mourners drift
Like scattered ash
And silver tears dry
By callous winds
ย
When once more
The weight is lifted
We are forlorn
Left to rest eternally
ย
As meager mortals
We pass from mirthless grounds
Into waters of forgetfulness
ย
Days march on
And seasons shift
In total indifference
ย
