My Child, I will bury you on the highest hill, |
| [01:12.79] |
Beside the tallest tree where winter will cover you |
| [01:22.69] |
And build the biggest castle. |
| [01:30.12] |
There I will bury you, from the arms of your mother. |
| [01:39.44] |
|
| [01:57.57] |
Soon the angels will carry you over the edge of the world, |
| [02:05.14] |
Lead you through the deepest forest, |
| [02:10.83] |
Away from sickness, into the light. |
| [02:16.93] |
Sleep my child, lay down your head and leave this pain, |
| [02:25.61] |
I'll read your these last pages of the tale. |
| [02:31.38] |
To endless morning I'm cursed from here on; |
| [02:38.15] |
You will be taken, I was meant to stay... |
| [02:46.94] |
|
| [02:50.14] |
The Emerald Forest was quiet |
| [02:58.41] |
And the deep green of the diamond leaves |
| [03:07.51] |
Was glimmering in the sky high tree tops |
| [03:18.55] |
On the gentle wind, tall as the mountains in the east. |
| [03:28.34] |
|
| [03:31.16] |
Echoes of the steps of giants |
| [03:39.50] |
Were fading like the beat of your weak heart. |
| [03:47.14] |
Shades of night welcome you with a twisted smile. |
| [03:58.24] |
Slowly with every tiny breath., |
| [04:05.31] |
Hold my hand tight, nothing will hurt you here. |
| [04:21.02] |
You are almost home my little angel, |
| [04:30.96] |
I will lead you through. |
| [04:34.54] |
|
| [04:39.54] |
Night creatures, unicorns and white owls, |
| [04:48.23] |
Treasures hidden in the emerald glow. |
| [04:56.03] |
Green light on the white altar and the black throne, |
| [05:03.48] |
Choirs of ancients blessing your passage to the world below. |
| [05:15.35] |
|
| [05:50.25] |
The path through the woods was getting narrow |
| [06:00.15] |
And the aisle of trees shaded the last light of the moon. |
| [06:08.88] |
But the light from the candles on the bridge |
| [06:14.06] |
Across the Water |
| [06:18.67] |
Lit the way from emerald steps, marking our trail deeper. |
| [07:03.78] |
This is the frontier as far as I can pass, |
| [07:11.26] |
But the calling of the Blackbird |
| [07:16.13] |
Will lead you on from here. |
| [07:20.24] |
Every tear will turn to an emerald in this forest, |
| [07:28.36] |
And this is where it ends, |
| [07:32.51] |
The cry turns to laughter, my son. |
| [07:36.98] |
You will be taken, I was meant to stay, my loved one. |
| [07:46.74] |
