Aedeus [English translation]

After a short while

you have mixed amongst my laughter

so much of your bitter poison,

[that it] overflows from my heart.

Be gone!

into your nights

go, alone to your torments.

Now they lie dormant,

they are silent; my sighs,

leave me, motionless

spread out on the tide,

o sleep,

scattered memory.

I fall when there's no one

who will notice me,

when I steal your affections,

it is gone, it doesn't matter what use it was.

Now they lie dormant,

they are silent; my sighs,

leave me, motionless

spread out on the tide,

o sleep,

(like ashes, [my] memory

scatters)

scattered memory.

Yet I pray...from the strange maelstrom....

Yet I pray...to be made mortal...

Now they lie dormant,

they are silent; my sighs,

leave me, motionless

spread out on the tide,

o sleep,

(like ashes, [my] memory

scatters)

scattered memory.
