We'll meet again, while night wind calls.
With honors he'll be laid to rest."
A Chorus of Ghosts:
"His tent is ready for the guest,
And when tomorrow's midnight falls,
We'll meet again, while night wind calls.
With honors he'll be laid to rest."
A Voice:
"Over the fields let my voice be heard,
At midnight he will be interred!
Let each one say what he will bring!"
The Gallows with the Wheel:
"The dead man's coffin I will be."
The Frogs in the Swamp:
"And we tomorrow's dirge shall sing."
The Gale over the Lake:
"Sad music, is a part of me."
The Moon in Zenith:
"I shall provide the pall of white."
The Fog in the Mountains:
"We'll bring the mourning veils in sight."
The Night:
"And I'll procure the robes of fear."
The Mountains:
"Give us the veils and the robes of night."
The Falling Dew:
"And I will lend each sparkling tear."
