Death, in your eyes I stare
for your face I caress
You, I fear not
The people be left behind I fear
Cry they may
Cease upon ourselves falling, my brothers
be glad into the good night I go
If say I may
Happy you should be
This cruel world, away
troubles no more
Alas, Death I welcome
For there is ahead a second life
A better one, one without pain.
Sorrow no more, misery no more.
Come Death, you, I welcome
Into the the good night accompany me
Like brothers we walk.
