I calmly claw the exposed bones with my nails As if waking from the sleep of barren sickness The unbridled thorns of deceit Enfold me with stinging schemes What brings ill to the world is evil What puts that to death is justice An emergency once more turns the world upside down Am I now, after all, evil? Despised by somebody While achieving something My shout repeatedly Searches for light My wish merely drifts, benumbed Now my plaint dies away, torn by the wind In the sleep of ignorance I tire, lose my way and fade Frustrated of self-effacement, counting the dark stars A petal floats in the sake cup Drifting about in pitchy dark The firebird inside my heart Will one day turn into a wild goose Inside my head that has been reduced to a pomegranate Gather carrion beetles that have my brother's face The more you kill, the more loved you shall be You will even be able to cross a bottomless abyss in one leap (1) The vain jackanapes that kisses a skull For whose sake does he sing with feigned ignorance The more you kill, the more smeared in filth you shall be You will surely be swallowed by the bottomless abyss Alas! Pointlessly I may search for a ray of sunshine Alas! Single-mindedly I stumble and fall in a strange land For all this For all this I risked the name of our family For all this For all this I risked the honor of our dear departed father The unwritten laws I broke, the crimes I committed Even the lives I took I did it all for you and Your epochal utopia No farther! Save it! Enough of your sophistries, tiger ill-fitted to rule I will now set ablaze the ephialtes that you are Overhead in the leaden sky Time brings along the night A proclamation you say (2) Even our conversation is losing its bright color If I cannot run any further, I may as well die here If that will not take me further away from you Hold me, hug me, embrace me once more Lest our parting is overcast, should it be but brief We shall not love, dance, or grow together no more Bewildered, inside a dream I wander, and the white snow sneers at my inaudible sobs Dancing without shame, is that how you beg for your life? Still, the child is a different matter, he could prove troublesome in the future Kill him Wherefore such fell treatment? I would rather have you take my own life Alack! How I wish that he could have held our child in his arms Please forgive me, we shall meet no more My wish merely drifts, the haughty Summit, for now, simply shifts The rain that falls there only hesitates, benumbed Now my plaint dies away, torn by the wind
