كلمات At The Gallows End

Sunrise I greet you, the beauty of your light So warm and tender was never the night In tears I see you, the last time it will be So give me your blessing, I'll meet my destiny No rest for the Sinner Hypnos refused me my sleep This was the last night of my life with wine I pondered on my deeds I drank to the devil with servants It's good with a friend where you go No one would share my last chalice So I drink to the ones that I know Ring brother, ring for me Ring the bells of hope and faith Ring for my damnation I am at the gallows end With sad emotions, I sing this epitaph My swansong, my headstone, the farewell of my heart The hills of Tyburn, up where the gallows stand Only the vultures will come to see me hang Behold the sight of my Golgatha The gallows enlightened by the moon Proud of his art are the carpenter His creation a tool for my doom I am the outcast no winner I am the fallen the one That lived all his life as a sinner The Tempter has called me his son Ring brother, ring for me Ring the bells of hope and faith Ring for my damnation I am at the gallows end Soon it is time the dark has now fled And I see the place for my death The priest he will pray for my lost soul I'm sure he's wasting his time A sinner, a fool or a devil Or just a victim of life It's no fun to burn in hell's fire But I sure have enjoyed my life Ring brother, ring for me Ring the bells of hope and faith Ring for my damnation I am at the gallows end
