Upon this isle of mist and sorrow
Misfortune lies upon the morrow.
A fall, a death or a nasty scar
A loss of love to joy mar.
Living in fear, crying in vain
Are the things that plague my brain.
For in truth, I am a shadow
Wailing like a broken widow.
I lift a hand and wipe my tears
Ah, I think, the pain – it sears.
As I lie awake at night,
The sorry past does cloud my sight.
Every time I hear her name,
I look down with the weight of shame.
My emotions are in ceaseless flight
Far ahead I see the light.
As the purpose of my life does fail
All shall hear the mother's wail.
