The Ensemble of Silence

And again the moon is on the wave, gliding gently into me

On silent wings the night comes from there, as my heart longs to thee...

For in my hand I still hold the rose that froze long times ago

Its leafs have withered, it ceased to grow - left in me this woe

The wine of love, is o so sweet, but bitter is regret

I knew at sunset I would meet the ascending veils of dread

Before my eyes nocturnal curtains fall

The dark and gentle haze of the night, greedily devours all

"Woe to him whose heart is filled with bitter rue and who drowns in grief"

In the silence of the night I lose myself

It makes me drunken with its sweet blue sound

In the drunk'ness of solitude

I fear no more the solemn realms of death

No single sigh from my lips as I drink the wine of bitterness

My heart is aching nevermore for I know that all may end

Just I and the poetry of the night, now forever one

Just I and the poetry of the night, now forever one

The ensemble of silence plays so beautiful for me
