Darkseed Love's Heavy Burden
Music: Hertrich/Winkler Lyrics: Hertrich Under love's heavy burden do I sink Can I go forward when my heart is here ? I cannot be here, here and there, there and here for You and I are past our dancing days I like the lightning which does cease to be ere one can say "I see" Beauty too rich for use, for earth too dear Did my heart love 'till now ? I forswear ! Regions near me seemed all alone My mutual cry she never heard again Now sadness is beloved, and love we gain Alike bewitched by charm of looks Night sable Goddess, from Your ebon throne Every eye is fixed on You alone I thank You, Moon, for showing me the way Trip away, make me stay, meet me all by break of day You made mine eyes and merry tears O grim-looked night, the way you fear ! Full many flowers born to blush unseen And waste their sweetness now, share their last gleam Trip away, make me stay, meet me all by break of day ! Heaven/hell, shadow-dancer heatened blood makes holy hands unclean Mine eyes look sad, the grim-looked night away stare around the sphere to blush unseen - Your tears When You turn away Leave me out of the end Turn Your insane out Leave me, if You will Away from light steals forth my soul I want give cure as know But love's a smoke with fume of sighs So swallow down and rise, autumn rise !
