[Verse 1]
Her dirge still echoes in these woods
Mourning lingers in the vales
As the wind cries on the shore
Her wailing can be heard
Mirthless is this wandering
Through hallow days
Like a pale ghost
I waste away in this foul world
[Pre-Chorus]
What sin do I atone for
In this dreadful way
Why the gods sneer at me
As I keep writhing in pain
[Chorus]
Where has my dearest gone to
Where sings now my maiden fair
Beneath the darksome waters
Underneath the moonlit waves
Where is our ill-starred son
Where lies our poor stillborn child
Below the silent mound
In the arms of sacred earth
Her dirge still echoes in these woods
Mourning lingers in the vales
As the wind cries on the shore
Her wailing can be heard
Mirthless is this wandering
Through hallow days
Like a pale ghost
I waste away in this foul world
[Pre-Chorus]
What sin do I atone for
In this dreadful way
Why the gods sneer at me
As I keep writhing in pain
[Chorus]
Where has my dearest gone to
Where sings now my maiden fair
Beneath the darksome waters
Underneath the moonlit waves
Where is our ill-starred son
Where lies our poor stillborn child
Below the silent mound
In the arms of sacred earth
