Yes all is past swift time has fled away | D |
Yet its swell pauses on my sickening mind | E |
How long will horror nerve this frame of clay | D |
I'm dead and lingers yet my soul behind | E |
Oh powerful Fate revoke thy deadly spell | F |
And yet that may not ever ever be | G |
Heaven will not smile upon the work of Hell | F |
Ah no for Heaven cannot smile on me | G |
Fate envious Fate has sealed my wayward destiny | G |
- | |
I sought the cold brink of the midnight surge | H |
I sighed beneath its wave to hide my woes | I |
The rising tempest sung a funeral dirge | H |
And on the blast a frightful yell arose | I |
Wild flew the meteors o'er the maddened main | A |
Wilder did grief athwart my bosom glare | B |
Stilled was the unearthly howling and a strain | A |
Swelled mid the tumult of the battling air | B |
'Twas like a spirit's song but yet more soft and fair | B |
- | |
I met a maniac like he was to me | G |
I said 'Poor victim wherefore dost thou roam | J |
And canst thou not contend with agony | G |
That thus at midnight thou dost quit thine home ' | - |
'Ah there she sleeps cold is her bloodless form | K |
And I will go to slumber in her grave | L |
And then our ghosts whilst raves the maddened storm | K |
Will sweep at midnight o'er the wildered wave | L |
Wilt thou our lowly beds with tears of pity lave ' | - |
- | |
'Ah no I cannot shed the pitying tear | B |
This breast is cold this heart can feel no more | B |
But I can rest me on thy chilling bier | B |
Can shriek in horror to the tempest's roar ' | - |
