One only loves flames evermore in me | B |
Such an old volcano with ever mounting fire | C |
In an aging world whereon the night descends | D |
- | |
Otherwise all is dead all is grown dark and frore | C |
But by this proud flambeau magistral and supreme | E |
One sees the withered woods clear lined on a pale heaven | F |
And the thunder blasted walls of a sunken kingdom | G |
- | |
O my dreams wandering like old nomads | H |
The length of a vain way sullen and baffled | I |
Seeking the faded fields the vanished wells | J |

Let this flame lead you under a final sky | K |
To the valley verdant still where every flower is full | L |
Of the honey mingled rain of your first nights | M |
