Lo how the memories doth haunt my slumber
A visage fair now torn asunder
In silent halls her voice once echoed
But Death's cruel jaws have quickly beckoned
O Mother thou art lost in the night
Broken is my soul bereft of thy light
Shatter these chains that bind my grief
For in the dark I seek relief
The ravens call from hollow skies
Each tear a lament I cannot disguise
Where once was warmth now shadows abide
Thy gentle touch no more to guide
O Mother thou art lost in the night
Broken is my soul bereft of thy light
Shatter these chains that bind my grief
For in the dark I seek relief
Let thunder roll let heavens cry
I kneel upon stones where thou doth lie
To curse the void that stilled thy breath
And rage against thine silent death
Farewell dear guide thy rest is sworn
Thy love still burns where my heart is torn
I'll bear thy torch till final dawn
Mother though gone thou art never gone
