The Soul Fills With Undeniable Pride
The soul fills with undeniable pride,
And the heart is inundated with love,
For I know that I can in you confide;
As I know that you closely watch above.
Alive with energy you move about,
Like a dove flitting around the white clouds,
Suddenly your energy withers out;
Down comes the dove to the desolate grounds.
Forever is your bright light extinguished;
No longer does energy flow through you,
Your face is like liquid which has hardened;
A mask turning the deathly shade of blue.
Never again will you come by singing;
When you hear the red bells sweetly ringing.
