A man is tired of living and seeks out help to end it all |
| Oh dear faerie, With wings soft and frail, Please grant me but one wish After listening to my tale. My life is empty, But a hole is left of my heart. Woe is me, dear faerie, End my misery, help me depart. All I taste is the salt of my tears True they are so bitterly cold. In this world I am all alone And I will be until I grow old. Oh faerie, oh please set me free! I would rather see hellfire Than my dreams destroyed before me. Yes, dear faerie Let me sleep in placid eternal slumber. Take my mortality this form of mine Among all the brush and the lumber. With a wave of your silver scythe, Let me rest in sweet strife. |
