1. The feast day came while we were apart
And my skies remained overcast

2. The feast day knocked on my door, but
None responded except my streaming tears

3. Another feast while you are far away
Lying beneath the pressed soil

4. You were the shade I sought refuge in
And escaped from my weary day

5. You were a heart full of hope
Created for nothing but love

6. You were a fresh visioned ode
Yearning, your meanings unexplored

7. All this has passed and nothing remains
Except memories of ruinous sorrow

8. Oh how my soul yearns, what has passed?
Oh how my soul yearns, what remains?
