Sad veil of silver hides her face Frozen in silent grief Long years have passed her by Long years of solitude And loss so bitter and cold In memoriam, immortalis ♪ There is no better end than this No greater glory A simple man is forged A swift blade of dawn There is no letter coming back No final words to hear Only trumpets' fading sound And a name on a golden plate ♪ Oh, how the shadows yearn During the long hours of nightfall How rustling leaves dance by the cold gravestone Like telling life is here but a memory ♪ There is no better end than this No greater glory A simple man is forged A swift blade of dawn There is no letter coming back No final words to hear Only trumpets' fading sound And a name on a golden plate He chose immortality Hail the victorious death Your name will be remembered Your deeds will carry on She had to submit to her fate A widow for a hero alone with the grief Unknown to the world In memoriam, immortalis
