The battle fades, it ebbs away,
My life's long struggle starts to cease.
The battle fades, it ebbs away,
My life's long struggle finds its peace.
Accept, dear kin, this final plea,
My parting, last, and humble grace.
My journey's end, my destiny,
The promised haven, finds its place.
Accept, dear kin, this final plea,
Accept, dear kin, this final grace.
My breath grows thin, the air is cold,
I cannot breathe, I cannot stay.
My breath grows thin, the air is cold,
I can't endure another day.
This poisoned world, a bitter draught,
I cannot drink, I cannot bear.
This stone-cold town, a mournful raft,
My farewell whispered on the air.
Accept, dear kin, this final plea,
Accept, dear kin, this final grace.
For whom I left my father's door,
And walked away into the sun,
He stained my soul, forevermore,
And broke my heart, when all was done.
A heartless one, with cruel disdain,
Has cast me out, to shame and blame.
Accept, dear kin, this final plea,
My journey's end, my destiny,
The promised haven, finds its place.
Accept, dear kin, this final plea,
Accept, dear kin, this final grace.
My parting, last, and humble grace.
My parting, last, and humble grace.
My parting, last, and humble grace.
