Farewell, oh farewell Sweet dancers in the wind I see you are prepared come with me The long way home again
my beloved (Farewell to you) I whisper to a fading flower (I greet your embrace) There's so much life in dying After all this time you can go to sleep (After all this time that passed I can to sleep)
This well-known melody Rises up above the orphaned trees Rejoining the restless wind Bequeath scarlet rain to hunted leaves
Through this decay, you can see How she wanders How she cries tears Midnight's coming all too soon And she has to end what she's begun
Come near come near to me I know are frightened And I can't keep you safe But see there's nothing holding you anymore So please, don't insist on the waste
And now I your eyes (I'm waiting for you) Your broken beauty is my guide (I welcome your kiss) There's so much life in dying Take my hand, your head and seek relief (I've saved my life for you, Oh come near, let me seek relief)
Hope in her hair And her fingers borrow pity out of your heart Her eyes are right through you And you can see yourself in them
Sweet dancers There is nothing holding anymore Please come with me, my dear
Now autumn's tears begin to freeze And I'm willing to leave again
