|
Fall upon the dark waters |
|
Floating down the coal-black currents |
|
Through cataracts and rapids |
|
To the tombs of Tuonela |
|
|
|
How to bear the stings of serpents, |
|
Tortures of the reed of waters, |
|
How to bear the stings of serpents, |
|
From the streams of Tuonela |
|
|
|
To the blackest of all streams |
|
To the waters of Tuoni |
|
To the falls of the deathland |
|
To the waters of Tuoni |
|
|
|
Fall upon the waters |
|
Floating down the coal-black current, |
|
Through the cataracts and rapids |
|
To the tombs of Tuonela. |
|
|
|
How to bear the stings of serpents, |
|
Tortures of the reed of waters, |
|
How to bear the stings of serpents, |
|
From the stream of Tuonela |
|
|
|
From the death-stream a serpent, |
|
From the water a dream |
|
She is forever gone, forgotten |
|
My torment is all that remains |
