Original lyrics
ENThe ancient and stormy evening
My lean shade reveals
My cadaverous aspect
Germinating the seed of sclerosis
My silent groaning smothered by nausea
Grumbling lips swearing my grievous fate
Panting breast praying for extinction
Surrendered to suffering I was seized with fear
Fettered to frustration my body sails
Measured by the tides of a scarlet sea
Built with tears which I once cried
For every unfulfilled dream
At last the colourless light bid farewell
And the carriage of obscurity came to me
A macabre shape stretched to me his hand
And I held it of my own will
