Akin Lenore Lyrics

Lenore Lyrics

Broken is the golden bowl, the spirit flown forever

Let the bell toll

And Guy de Vere - hast thou no tear?

Weep now or nevermore



Let the burial rite be read

Come and let the funeral song be sung

An anthem for the queenliest dead

That ever died so young

A dirge for her the doubly dead

That ever died so young

That ever died so young



My heart is light

Tonight

No dirge will I upraise

Just let a Sabbath song go up to God

So solemnly

And waft the angel on her flight



How shall the ritual be read

And by who the requiem be sung

For when she fell in feeble health

You and your slanderous tongue

You turned an innocent to death

That ever died so young

That ever died so young



My heart is light

Tonight

No dirge will I upraise

Just let a Sabbath song go up to God

So solemnly

And waft the angel on her flight



From hell unto a high estate

From grief and groan, to a golden throne

Beside the King

The King of Heaven



My heart is light

Tonight

No dirge will I upraise

Just let a Sabbath song go up to God

So solemnly

And waft the angel, the angel, the angel

The angel on her flight
