We sought the light, found only shadows deep,
Before a smile could bloom, the tears did weep,
We sought the light.
Life, a horror worse than death's embrace,
Life, a horror worse, in this desolate space,
Those who lived, now tremble at life's name,
We sought the light.
Ah, the lost goal, swallowed by my heedless days,
Alas, the guide who led me from the ways,
We sought the light.
To desire them, the world turned its face,
To desire them, the world, in cold disgrace,
One joy we begged, and sorrow's clouds unfurled,
We sought the light, found only shadows deep,
Before a smile could bloom, the tears did weep,
We sought the light.
