Under a serene sky 
earth covers your gentle form 
in verdant fields 
soul is reft from bodies 
to my head i raise 
a wreath of white flowers 
and cry "unhappiness" 
my mournful valediction 
i drink deep into your soul 
killed with hate 
you died with love 
the cry of my heart 
the cry of my soul 
dreamless sleeper 
your face, the grave will change 
your blood poured 
liked your saviour's 
i drink the midnight hymn
