Lady Lily White Lyrics

Lady Lily White lyrics

White dove lay lifeless on a crown of thorns 

Beside a broken sword 

Whirlwind blew out a candle 

Heartrending cry 



Tears were streaming down her face 

Cold dread of death black cursed embrace 

An endless nightmare croacked on the brink of despair 

She felt she would die 



Her thoughts flew to his brave betrothed 

It was so long ago! 

Sweet loving eyes of thee so far from mine 

She felt she would die 



Sweetheart, my light cruel fate calls me to fight 



Sudden shadows fell on me 

Was the dream of white dove a message of thee? 



You may be wrong 

May he live long! 

How many winters 

What cold you suffered in the pale warmth of hope 



Gloomy icy blast from battlefront 

Blew his dumb ashes back to court 

Atropos broke fine thread of his life 

She felt she would die 



Calling from the highest hissing tower 

Corvine shades abducted her murdered soul 

Birds of ill omen stained the sky 

She felt she would die 



Jewel, my love the war is calling from above 



Sudden shadows fell on me 

Was the dream of white dove a message of thee? 



Was not only a dream 

Of suffocated beam 

Harmonic torment 

Tragedy masked in romantic dress 



The tower was calling...she climbed the stairs to breathe better the death 



...and the heaven was bleeding 

She dressed in snow flickering as lily in storm 

Like a dove flew up 



E i cielo tinto nel rubino 

Stringeva al seno suo il muto giglio, 

Spenta la rosa nel viso candido bambino 

Ricamava la parca fatal il sigillo vermiglio, 

Igneo affluente del gentil ruscel diamante 

Dolce scivolava al freddo mar del pianto. 

Fragil ebbro d'amor libravasi lo spirto vagante, 

E la terra la bruma copriva d'incanto‰
