Gloomy Shadow

Since eternity you've never changed
Not weakened or cringed
Always lashing fantasies' horse 
As lightning whips the gloomy shadow
  
Since eternity
You've thrown your arrow 
On a thousand hearts then danced! 
How creative you are, creating dances!
Since eternity, alas!

With a pledge of death 
Pouring darkness invisibly and silently 
Over hearts 
Then dragging the torn clouds
Dredged in sadness
Here and there! 

Ah take our icy silence,
now but don't tremble
 
We've been ghosts 
In the cold for a long time 
Ah take it the distance now
 
You throw it there
Above the ailing hearts
Then run craving for your prey 
Crawling craftily and smugly away
