tawny nightingale,
King of romance
You depart…
You depart to eternity
We stay in this chaotic misery…
O tawny nightingale
The voice of humanity
Voice of mutiny
Voice of dreams
Voice of love and freedom
Voice of god on earth
You depart
You depart to eternity
We stay in this chaotic misery…
O tawny nightingale
King of romance
You depart…
Songs were dull before you
And now they are dead after you.
O tawny nightingale,
You depart…
The Nile nymphs commit suicide..
Habi is insane, breaking the water harps…
Shepherds abandon the sheep
Roses wither away
Lost their delicate scents…
Robins, starlings, canaries depart..
Weeping,
Mourning the departure of their king …
O tawny nightingale,
King of romance
You depart…
O tawny nightingale,
Will it be life without songs…?!
