Sing a farewell for me
That sweet sound
Of past days
Always remember me
The Life of love,
Beloved of my heart,
O, joy of my soul,
Sing softly...
Temper your lyre and sing
The hymn of death
The sky opens up to us
And we fly into the light
The Life of love,
Beloved of my heart,
O, joy of my soul,
Sing a farewell...
