| Tears dripping from his eyes | B |
| - | |
| The rays flashed on the water | C |
| The sand gave way beneath him | D |
| His life was always like this | E |
| No one was ever there for him | D |
| Nor will anyone be | F |
| - | |
| The tears tried to wash away | G |
| The sadness from his heart | H |
| Which lay broken under a heap of sand | I |
| His life was always like this | E |
| Whenever misery came almost all times | J |
| They piled up on each other | C |
| - | |
| He watched the Sun dip below the horizon | K |
| And he saw his survival chances to sink too | L |
| Slowly rose the Moon | M |
| But her attitude seemed a bit odd | N |
| Instead of bringing hope | O |
| She drowned him even more | P |
| Hours drifted like minutes | Q |
| The Moon went on shining with its angelic aura | R |
| Pouring silver glitters on his blue pupils | S |
| Those looked back as if to say | G |
| Why are you here now | T |
| Why do you remind me of those days | U |
| Tears now started to rain | V |
| Causing him to shut them close | W |
| - | |
| But then he heard a voice | X |
| Speaking in his mind | Y |
| Faint very faint But it's there | Z |
| A girl it's a girl's voice | X |
| She whispers Come to me | F |
| She repeats that over and over again | A2 |
| Making him drunk | B2 |
| With that treacherous melodious voice | X |
| - | |
| The boy opens his eyes | B |
| He sees standing a few yards | C2 |
| Away from him | D |
| A dark silhouette of a girl | D2 |
| - | |
| The edge of her skirt twirls in the wind | Y |
| Her auburn hair | Z |
| Flowing along the breeze | E2 |
| A sweet feeling creeps in his heart | H |
| - | |
| Her voice fill up the air | Z |
| Follow me | F |
| She towards him and the boy | F2 |
| Got stunned | G2 |
| - | |
| Wow thought the boy | F2 |
| What a gorgeous face | H2 |
| The perfect curvy nose | I2 |
| The intoxicating lilac eyes | B |
| Which makes his memory fuzzy | F |
| And above all | J2 |
| That heart melting smile | K2 |
| - | |
| The girl giggled and started to walk away | G |
| The boy began to follow | L2 |
| Just like she had said | M2 |
| He picked up pace and then started running | N2 |
| But could not close the gap between them | O2 |
| - | |
| But then she stopped and so did he | F |
| She turned towards him | D |
| He moved forward slowly | F |
| Her face glistened in the moonlight | P2 |
| His pulse raced | Q2 |
| She let him come closer until he stopped | R2 |
| Now she walked and came even closer | C |
| Unti their faces were only inches apart | H |
| - | |
| But then he realized | S2 |
| Where was her shadow | L2 |
| Fear crept in his heart | H |
| Yet the boy did not move | T2 |
| His body swayed in a frightful bliss | E |
| His heart went on devouring rich wine | U2 |
| - | |
| The girl now understood that her true identity | F |
| Was no longer a secret | V2 |
| She smiled and kept her soft hands | W2 |
| On his shoulders | X2 |
| She pulled him even closer | C |
| And said in a whisper | C |
| I have watched over you many nights | Y2 |
| Coming here with the girl you broke up with | Z2 |
| But don't worry now you have me | F |
| Then she kissed him for a long time | A3 |
| Longer than the others before him | D |
| - | |
| She then pulled him apart | H |
| From her from his body and from this world | B3 |
| She walked away skipping in joy | F2 |
| Even winking once at the Moon | M |
| - | |
| In the morning two sailors | X2 |
| Happened to walk past the same spot | C3 |
| The place where the girl and the boy had last met | D3 |
| The younger of the two hunched over the body | F |
| Before finally saying It's HER | C |
| What a terrible beauty she is | E3 |
| Let his soul rest in peace | F3 |
| - | |
| For many the journey ends here | G3 |
| But it was not so for this young man | H3 |
| For when the clock struck twelve | I3 |
| The very next night the Boy sat up | J3 |
| Oh no not the body | F |
| Only his soul | K3 |
| He stood there waiting for Her | C |
| - | |
| A minute later he spotted Her at a distance | L3 |
| And gave Her a call | J2 |
| - | |
| Bewilderment filled Her eyes | B |
| As they were drawn closer | C |
| - | |
| This time the boy went closer | C |
| Both came very close | W |
| And he whispered Follow me | F |
| He grabbed her hand and off they went | M3 |
| Running like horses set free | F |
| Both of them were happy at heart | H |
| So the smile came naturally | F |
| - | |
| In the morning those same two men | A2 |
| Walked past the same spot | C3 |
| The younger one said | M2 |
| I heard two voices yesterday | G |
| A boy and a girl | D2 |
| Did you too | L |
| The older one nodded | N3 |
| - | |
| They were walking | N2 |
| When surprised knocked at them | O2 |
| They saw the boy's body lying there | Z |
| Just like they had seen | O3 |
| But with a smile on his lips | P3 |
| Both of them gazed | Q3 |
| Finally the older one looked up at the ocean | K |
| The Curse is now finally over | C |
| This lad is Her partner now | T |
| May they rest in peace | F3 |
| Saying this they went away | G |
| - | |
| Even now my narration does not end | R3 |
| For nature had other plans | S3 |
| - | |
| At night He stood there | Z |
| All alone | A |
| Two nights ago he was here only | F |
| But crying And now with a smile | K2 |
| - | |
| Maybe the locals didn't know | L2 |
| But He was The Curse now | T |
| The creature of the Dark | T3 |
| Now is His time to breathe in | U3 |
| Fear in the hearts of men | A2 |
| - | |
| This is The Curse that cycles eternally | F |
| THE CURSE OF LOVE | V3 |
