| Far away far away
|
| Are not all lovely things far away
|
| As far at least lies that valley
|
| As the bedridden sun in the luminous east
|
| The paralyzed mountains, the sickly river
|
| Are not all things lovely far away
|
| Are not all things lovely far away
|
| It is a valley where time is not interrupted
|
| Where its history shall not be interpreted
|
| Stories of satan’s dart of angel wings
|
| Unhappy things
|
| Within the valley of unrest
|
| The sun ray dripped all red
|
| The dell was silent
|
| All the people having gone to war
|
| Leaving no interrogator to mind
|
| The willful looting the pale past knowledge
|
| The sly mysterious stars
|
| The unguarded flowers leaning
|
| The tulips overhead paler
|
| The terror stricken sky
|
| Rolling like a waterfall
|
| Over the horizon’s fiery wall
|
| A visage full of meaning
|
| How the unhappy shall confess
|
| As Roderick watches like a human eye
|
| While violets and lilies wave
|
| Like banners in the sky
|
| Hovering over and above a grave
|
| As dew drops on the freshly planted eternal dew
|
| Coming down in gems
|
| There’s no use to pretend
|
| Though gorgeous clouds fly
|
| Roderick, like the human eye has closed forever
|
| Far away far away
|
| Roderick, whatever thy image may be
|
| Roderick, no magic shall sever the music from thee
|
| Thou hast bound many eyes in a dreamy sleep
|
| Oh tortured day
|
| The strains still arrive
|
| I hear the bells
|
| I have kept my vigilance
|
| Rain dancing in the rhythm of a shower
|
| Over what guilty spirit to not hear the beating
|
| To not hear the beating heart
|
| But only tears of perfect moan
|
| Only tears of perfect moan |
