Lame Immortelle - The Immortal Part - Текст песни

When I meet the morning beam 


Or lay me down at night to dream


I hear my bones within me say 


Another night, another day 


The man of flesh and soul be slain 


And the man of bone remain 


These today are proud in power 


And lord it in their little hour 


The immortal bones obey control 


Of dying flesh and dying soul


The immortal bones obey control 


Of dying flesh and dying soul


'This long till eve and morn are gone


Slow the endless night comes on 


And late to fullness growns the birth 


That shall last as long as earth 


These today are proud in power 


And lord it in their little hour 


The immortal bones obey control 


Of dying flesh and dying soul


These today are proud in power 


And lord it in their little hour 


The immortal bones obey control 


Of dying flesh and dying soul


Wanderers eastward, wanderers west, 


Know you why you cannot rest 


'Tis that every mother's son 


Travails with a skeleton 


When shall this slough of sense be cast, 


This dust of thoughts be laid at last


Bring the eternal seed to light 


And morn is all the same as night 


Rest you so from trouble sore, 


Fear the heat o' the son no more 


Nor the snowing winter wild 


Now you labour not with child 


Empty vessel, garment cast 


We that wore you long shall last 


Another night, another day 


So my bones within me say
