In the Hours of Remembrance

Tick tack the sounds of clock Hush hush the wind hath blown And you inside these rocks Beneath this brilliant moon. Arise beloved let me pray Thy soul to keep wish I may As in my heart you deeply lay Arise beloved from the clay. In my heart I hold you dear And all the laughter’s that we care Are now forgotten in the air Elegiac hymns strike the lyre! O beloved how I long To hold your hands all day long And sing with you the lovely songs Amidst the face of countless throng. And now I sit upon thy crypt As these tears fall on my cheeks I wish to wake thee from thy sleep To bring to me the joy I seek But lo, beloved I cannot For things that past can't be recant So I shall live and let thee rot And here I'll end this mournful chant.
