Lyrics of Han faller plågad ned - Dråpsnatt

Han faller plågad ned (original)

Av det som en gng var kraft och liv
Finns endast krossat ktt och ben kvar
Att ta enn annan mnniskas liv
Trotsar viljan av den Heliga Far
Han fallar plgad p kn och ber
Om frltelse och om svar
Hela marken sklver
Svarta moln tornar upp
Varp en mktig stmma
Hres eka:
«Du sger att du fruktar Gud, men vilket vsen
r det egentligen som du vljer att flja?
En god Gud som vill alla vl?
Nej!
Hgre makter bevittnar ditt dd Men leenden p sina livlsa lppar
Nr, barnhjrtighet och passion r fr de veka,
S se sknheten I ditt verk»

(translation)

Of what was once power and life
Only crushed meat and bones are left
To take the life of another human being
Defies the will of the Holy Father
He falls on his knees in pain and prays
About salvation and about answers
The whole ground shakes
Black clouds tower up
Warp a powerful voice
Hres eka:
"You say you fear God, but what a creature
is it really that you choose to follow?
A good God who wants everyone well?
No!
Higher powers witness your death But smiles on their lively lips
No, childishness and passion are for the weak,
So see the beauty in your work »
