FAREWELL THE SUN (IP)

Rain yesterday and today

And every tomorrow;

If the sun again shines

It will be through my tears;

Please show me the way

And Pity my sorrow,

O Goddess divine

O Ancient of years.

I have never failed you

Yet must bear such a cross;

I once cared for the king

But now it’s too late.

And I must die too.

So I weep for his loss

And can do not one thing

To alter my fate.

For I know what’s to come

As here in this room

They blot out the sun

And seal the door of the tomb.
