Mighty wings pay homage to this mortal coil
Weaving the night in dusk’s own loom
Of velvet like colours that fade to blackness
And the singing ravens so supreme in sad melodies
Enthral the heart and the feathers of a swan
Dancing by the whispering breeze of sunset
Nightmares creep as a mighty darkness descends
Like a curtain closing and wolves carving for meat

Like ravens ‘neath nightskies
As twilight released the midnight shadows
From antique yet immemorial majesty
About a dream of ravens across nightskies

Ethereal forms enchanted in flames of crimson
The streams of light that await the dawn
Lost in for eternity for this night is forever
And forever shall ravens fly ‘neath nightskies
Do the children of this night dream of angels?
Or either sing of mystic charms and funeral skies
Supreme sunset descent and light is no more
Us forever heathen like ravens ‘neath nightskies

A cold breeze whispers softly
Like a tale of night eternal
Of swans with black feathers
And a leaf of gold and crimson
Crystallid streams so pure
Through benighted nature untouched
Every breath flies forever
Like ravens ‘neath nightskies

And this is forever...
