Deathsong

Death, O death

I will remember thee

Death, O death

I will remember thee

You surrounded my poor father

And you hounded him down

O death, O death

I will remember thee

Death, O death

I will remember thee

Death, O death

I will remember thee

You captured my baby brother

And you laid him in the ground

O death, O death

I will remember thee

Death, O death

I will remember thee

Death, O death

I will remember thee

You haunted my own mother

Left her home a desolate place

O death, O death

I will remember thee

    

Death, O death

I will remember thee

Death, O death

I will remember thee

You tempted the little chidren

When you found no one around

O death, O death

I will remember thee 

Death, O death

I will remember thee

Death, O death

I will remember thee

I stared right in your eyes

Spoke to you by your true name

O death, O death

I will remember thee

Death, O death

I will remember thee

Death, O death

I will remember thee

You took our common garden

And you laid it all to waste

O death, O death

I will remember thee

Death, O death

I will remember thee

Death, O death

I will remember thee

You laid hands on my beautiful sister

Made her make a crying sound

O death, O death

I will remember thee

Death, O death

I will remember thee

Death, O death

I will remember thee

You ambushed my lovers

When we were glorybound

O death, O death

I will remember thee


Death, O death
I will remember thee
Death, O death
I will remember thee
You overtook my dear friends
Waylaid them right out there on the road
O death, O death
I will remember thee

Death, O death

I will remember thee

Death, O death

I will remember thee

We raised many mansions

You burned everything you found 

O death, O death

I will remember thee

Death, O death

Let me be

Death, O death

Please let me be

We ask only for a little while

You have eternity

O death, O death

Please let me be
