Mediaeval Baebes So Spricht Das Leben Lyrics

So Spricht Das Leben Lyrics

So sayeth life, the world is mine 

The flowers that bloom and the song of the birds 

I am the daylight and the sunshine 

So spricht das Leben, the world is mine 



So sayeth death, the world is mine 

Your daylight is but vein display 

Stars and moon sink in eternal night 

So spricht das Tod, the world is mine 



So sayeth life, the world is mine 

You make great tombs of marble and stone 

But love, you cannot entomb 

So spricht das Leben, the world is mine 



So sayeth death, the world is mine 

I have prepared a graveyard 

And created pestilence and war 

So spricht das Tod, the world is mine 



So sayeth life, the world is mine 

Every grave is a plot of land 

Into which my eternal seeds do fall 

So spricht das Leben, the world is mine
