Then I was blue and green, Then I was young and strong. Now I am done and gone, Now I am fire and soil. Then I was high and filled, Now I am empty and hallow. I agree you are the daughter of beauty, Skies beneath you, stars seek you. Will you listen to my face, will you stay? I will open my veins, be your slave. Then I was proud and brave, Now I am dust and ash. In the abyss of pain my voice is mute, Sickness of mind, perplexed I am. Chains of confusion around my heart, Heavy my soul becomes, I shiver. Then I was joy, Now I am pain.
