The sky, it brought a shroud of night, so deep,
The sky, it brought a shroud of night to keep,
Then you arrived, and joy began to leap,
The sky, it brought a shroud of night to keep.
May everyone find love, a foe like you,
May everyone find love, a foe askew,
May everyone find love, a foe untrue,
Who, dying, life's own secret did imbue,
Who, dying, showed what life could truly do,
Then you arrived, and joy began to imbue,
The sky, it brought a shroud of night to keep.
No moon of mine, no scent, no shifting cloud,
No moon of mine, no scent, the shroud allowed,
No moon of mine, no scent, the air endowed,
Who led you here, where I was often cowed?
Who led you here, where secrets were avowed?
Then you arrived, and joy began to crowd,
The sky, it brought a shroud of night allowed.
My eyes now hold his face, a mirrored plea,
My eyes now hold his face, for all to see,
My eyes now hold his face, eternally,
The mirror he gave, a gift, to set me free,
The mirror he gave, to show what I would be,
Then you arrived, and joy began to flee,
The sky, it brought a shroud eternally,
The sky, it brought a shroud eternally.
