My soul has abandoned its body The last thing I remember Is the sword stabbing my heart And now everything is black
The darkness fades away fast As two angels appear by my side A beautiful white one at my right And an ugly black one at my left
Together we watch my corpse being put in a coffin All my loved ones shed tears at my funeral A picture of myself is being put on the cross As a deep pit is dug in the ground
The priest is putting dust on my coffin Saying: ”Ashes to ashes, dust to dust” Everyone's body comes from the earth And now mine shall return there To rest…
Through the darkest of corridors my angels take me In front of a gate they bring me Black and white-hearted angels guard it They slowly open it and thus I enter
My soul admires the beauty of the Valley of Death Peaceful darkness, sleeping skeletons, old statues This dark valley of cemeteries slowly catches me entrance And under a black-leaved tree I sit down
This is the fate of all humans I accept it and for now fall asleep When God will call me for my Judgment That's when I'll return againTeksty umieszczone na naszej stronie są własnością wytwórni, wykonawców, osób mających do nich prawa.
