Amen Corner

Endless Solitude

Amen Corner


My soul goes through the long nights 
In search of that sweet and beautiful goddess... 
Like a sacred pearl which man will never be able to cut 
That fine silk purple curtain, 
Which separate my anxcious soul 
From its magnificent and frail body... 
I chant songs of pain, suffering and desires 
Through the curtain I try to touch your figure 
I approach your ardent and sensual lips, 
However, you keep still, insensitive... 
I see lots of tears and ashes in my journey, 
I see suffering in your way 
Tomorrow without flowers and without birds... 
Without hope, without life, filled with anguish 
With endless solitude... Yes, always live in sorrow 
Here's the fate that the eternal gods, of careless existence 
Endowed to the unhappy mortals
