At The Gallows End |
| Sunrise I greet you, the beauty of your light |
| So warm and tender was never the night |
| In tears I see you, the last time it will be So give me your blessing, I’ll meet my destiny |
| No rest for the Sinner |
| Hypnos refused me my sleep |
| This was the last night of my life |
| With wine I pondered on my deeds |
| I drank to the devil with servants |
| It’s good with a friend where you go No one would share my last chalice |
| So I drink to the ones that I know |
| Ring brother, ring for me Ring the bells of hope and faith |
| Ring for my damnation |
| I am at the gallows end |
| With sad emotions, I sing this epitaph |
| My swansong, my headstone, the farewell of my heart |
| The hills of Tyburn, up where the gallows stand |
| Only the vultures will come to see me hang |
| Behold the sight of my Golgatha |
| The gallows enlightened by the moon |
| Proud of his art are the carpenter |
| His creation a tool for my doom |
| I am the outcast no winner |
| I am the fallen the one |
| That lived all his life as a sinner |
| The Tempter has called me his son |
| Ring brother, ring for me Ring the bells of hope and faith |
| Ring for my damnation |
| I am at the gallows end |
| Soon it is time the dark has now fled |
| And I see the place for my death |
| The priest he will pray for my lost soul |
| I’m sure he’s wasting his time |
| A sinner, a fool or a devil |
| Or just a victim of life |
| It’s no fun to burn in hell’s fire |
| But I sure have enjoyed my life |
| Ring brother, ring for me Ring the bells of hope and faith |
| Ring for my damnation |
| I am at the gallows end |
