Who put an end to all the beauty...?
|
The splendour of the days gone by...
|
Itą„s mild and steady glow that lit up the gloomy loneliness..?
|
|
What could turn all the warm and true happiness
|
Into cold desperate tears without end..?
|
What made the strong, tough man become again
|
a scared little boy...?
|
|
I watch out over the desert of Death ..
|
It's silent, barren landscape surrounds me...
|
I feel cold...
|
The burning sun, always shining brightly,
|
Giving me warmth and light...
|
Tell me, is it gone for ever...?
|
Has its vitalizing warmth for ever been extinct
|
By gloomy, heavy fog..?
|
|
Again I feel the mortal horror bite me
|
As I stare at all these deaths
|
Which were once full of life,
|
Which were once life itself...
|
|
The birds under the sky have fallen in the dark,
|
Their wings, deprived of their strength, can't carry them any more...
|
Birdsongs have died away into silence,
|
Slowly died away has every joyous symphony...
|
The wild beasts are not to be seen any more,
|
To their burrows they have returned to find peace for time indefinite...
|
|
The acres of flowery meadows,
|
The flowers have bowed their heads to the ground,
|
And have all returned to earth...
|
Just the thistles and thorns are still standing erect
|
As I stand like a withered rose
|
Alone with all my pain...
|
|
|
To the brim full of sorrow,wounded and forgotten...
|
But always carrying my remembrance
|
Of a Hope that never dies...
|
