Dust and Ashes |
| ANGELO BRANDUARDI |
| «fables and fantasies» |
| Dust And Ashes |
| I am dust and ashes |
| My crown is worm and white bone |
| There’s no man suckled milk |
| Though he run I will not call him |
| His chains will seem as feathers |
| When silently I lock mine |
| His iron gate but cobweb come his moment |
| I am dust and ashes |
| My jewels maggots crawling |
| There’s no man woman loved |
| Will not surrender when I beckon |
| Sand is running my blade shining |
| Bend your heads why stay my welcome |
| The steps are worn my ferryman awaits you |
| Oh sir you do us honour |
| Attending on our humble dwelling |
| Lay down your glass and blade |
| And take a few turns with us We beg you dance a few steps |
| A rondeau of remembrance |
| Forget a while the flesh you should have taken… |
