A murky presage roaming the land
|
To silence the skylarks chant
|
The somber kiss is at hand
|
To impart the crimson robe
|
|
Heed the darksome maid
|
Dancing across this equinox
|
To relegate persistence
|
As the bleak darkness grows
|
|
A cryptal impellent, devoted to the sublime round
|
|
Beholden for the boons of light
|
Retreating into quietness
|
We harken the somber lay
|
We sing the somber lay
|
|
Close your eyes and heed and vide
|
Then you shall see
|
The sphere revolves as it's promised
|
|
Flames flickering deftly
|
To banish the nipping air
|
The dark time is at hand
|
Lighted by bardic chant
|
|
Heed the darksome maid
|
To enwrap all in bleakness
|
A dark veil o'silence
|
As quiet insight buds
|
|
Darkness roaming the land
|
Long dead the skylarks chant
|
The dark vis usurped command
|
To impart the sallow robe
|
|
Sure a new light will come
|
The lifewheel is rotating onward
|
Given is the promise
|
Thus assertive we wear on
|
|
Life-given impellent, devoted to the sublime round
|
