Insomnium The Ill-starred Son Lyrics

The Ill-starred Son Lyrics


Her dirge still echoes in these woods
Mourning lingers in the vales
As
the wind cries on the shore
Her wailing can be heared

Mirthless is
this wandering through
Hollow days
Like a pale ghost I waste away
in
This foul world

What sin do I atone for in this
Dreadful
way
Why the gods snee rat me as I
Keep writhing in pain

Where has
my dearest gone to
Where sings now my maiden fair
Beneath the darksome
waters
Underneath the moonlit waves

Where is our ill-starred
son
Where lies our poor stillborn child
Below the silent mound
In the
arms of scared earth

She become weary of the world
Tired of this
marred life
Burdened with sorrow far too deep
A pain impossible to
bear

There is no light at the end of this
Blackened path
Calm
again are the sullen waters
Before me

If gods shall hearken to
me
Fate with be bening
I leave these woes behind
Depart from these
cares

For we shall be reunited on the
Other side
I desscend to my
love and caress her
forevermore
