I am the mystery
And I am the bringer of moonless night
Bear the wisdom arcane
I, harbinger from the burrowed isle
Once you break forth
Hearken the flap of my wings
Haunt your fears
Though you don't know my duty
To lead your path
Because I'll take you home
To rest in my black wings
Enfolding you
I am the icon sublime
The guide of the voyage clandestine
I sing the verses bewailed
I, torch of the radiant way
Once you step out
Hearken the strokes of my wings
Once you will leave your cocoon
I will be there
Haunt your fears
Though you don't know
Of my duty to lead your path
Because I'll take you home
To rest in my black wings
Enfolding you
And death will smile his barefaced smile
Initiating your final anguish
It is not before my arrival that you will be led to feel
The natural serenity of leaving this world
Hear my wings caressing the wind
Hear my cry
Haunt your fears
Though you don't know my duty
To lead your path
Because I'll take you home
To rest in my black wings
Enfolding you
