Marble TearsIn this barren season / Only once a yearUpon her fine face / Drop the marble tears Her cries are silent / But to touch these stones Is to know her anguish / A fleeting sense of fear Does she disturb / The realm of the dead? Or is her presence / A bitter relief For the one whose abode / Lies beneath the earth Though he may rejoice / She laments her fate "This curse haunts me / I will never escape it The fates binding / Those tempting cursed seeds" "One season here / Three seasons living in fear That fetid air / Oh how I dread it down there I can't escape / When I am bound to this fate Oh Hades hear / Your season's end draws near" "Below the sunlight's reach / Dark magic bears the fruit The cursed juice so sweet / That wicked curse by you..." "Prisoned to be with you / Shall I never forget? That day the earth opened / and swallowed up my grace" In this barren season / Never twice a year Down from her fair face / Pour the marble tears Her pain is silent / But to take these stones Is to share her anguish / And to be cursed like her. |
