UNDER A VEIL (OF BLACK LACE)
|
|
With loving passion, oh your radiance
|
A serenade I cry
|
Your silk lined coffin the lachrymatory
|
To hold a mourner's tears
|
|
Ethereal splendour
|
Pale skin and down cast eyes
|
Scent of paradise
|
Like her, forever remains unknown
|
|
Through tear stained eyes
|
My view is growing weaker
|
Please help my grief be vanquished
|
Thy bed of roses, funereal drapery
|
Impale me on your thorns
|
|
Celestial splendour
|
Pale skin and down cast eyes
|
Farewell autumn kisses
|
Like her, forever remains unknown
|
|
I loved her ... but now she's gone
|
(It's so hard to face)
|
Overcoming ... tender reckoning
|
|
If I too depart the earth
|
In harmony to (our) heaven we'll elope
|
|
Heavenly grace with which to ease
|
the virgin's tears
|
|
