A Lament Over a Sad Song
Oh, melancholy tune, I weep for thee
With rivers of tears that flow from me
Your melody, a somber hue
Your beat, a funeral march, slow and true
Your rhythm, a lament, that echoes pain
Your words, a poignant refrain, that brings me tears again
In this valley of sorrow, I attune my heart
To your haunting refrains, that play their part
The echoes of lost dreams, the whispers of what's past
The rings of missed chances, forever to last
The resonates of hope, now forlorn and cold
The rhythm of aspirations, defeated and old
The beat of wishes, disappointed and worn
The resounds of promises, empty and torn
