Song language: English
A Death Shall Have No Dominion |
| And death shall have no dominion |
| Dead men naked they shall be one |
| With the man in the wind and the west moon; |
| When their bones are picked clean and the clean bones gone |
| They shall have stars at elbow and foot; |
| Though they go mad they shall be sane |
| Though they sink through the sea they shall rise again; |
| Though lovers be lost love shall not; |
| And death shall have no dominion |
| And death shall have no dominion |
| Under the windings of the sea |
| They lying long shall not die windily; |
| Twisting on racks when sinews give way |
| Strapped to a wheel, yet they shall not break; |
| Faith in their hands shall snap in two |
| And the unicorn evils run them through; |
| Split all ends up they shan’t crack; |
| And death shall have no dominion |
| And death shall have no dominion |
| No more may gulls cry at their ears |
| Or waves break loud on the seashores; |
| Where blew a flower may a flower no more |
| Lift its head to the blows of the rain; |
| Though they be mad and dead as nails |
| Heads of the characters hammer through daisies; |
| Break in the sun till the sun breaks down |
| And death shall have no dominion |
