As darkness falls for the last time    I awake from my apparently infinite sleep    A silver fullmoon glows on this winternight    Waning into oblivion       ... and I follow the northern storms    that bring dusk upon the icy landscapes    ... and the storms lead me to majestic forrests    lakes and mountains I've never seen before       Melancholy within seems eternal    As I walk through the undergrowth    Of these endless woods    But then I see her sleeping under the dark trees    - my beloved nocturnal queen    And the children of the night watch over her    Like the moon watches over the night       As I get closer to her she awakens    From her majestic sleep    As she embraces me again    I feel her magical attraction       Together we walk the path of salvation    And together with the wolves    She sings her sweet serenades    And with these, her majestic serenades       She reaches for my black, bleeding heart    Which only beats for her    She kisses me with her lips of fire    And this kiss covers my heart    With a dismal shade of sadness       And her hair of gold, waving in the wind    Seems to me like the starcovered horizon    Her sweet art is the key to my solitary heart    And together we open the gate to infinity    Into the duskimpregnated land of dreams,    where our spirits shall rest eternally       I look into her eyes,    knowing that this moment won't    last eternally    ... and the sun never rises, for she is    the forgotten flame    engulfing my heart    ... and in the black wind her shadow    fades away    into the melancholy of the night    And again my heart is touched    by an endless solitary darkness
