[00:00.00]The Sleeper - Sopor Aeternus & The Ensemble Of Shadows (永恒沉睡)
[01:46.66]At midnight in the month of june
[01:54.42]I stand beneath the mystic moon
[02:00.84]
[02:01.86]An opiate vapor dewy dim
[02:08.26]
[02:09.10]Exhales from out her golden rim
[02:15.71]
[02:17.40]And softly dripping drop by drop
[02:22.11]
[02:24.77]Upon the quiet mountain top
[02:28.61]
[02:30.52]Steals drowsily and musically
[02:37.88]
[02:38.96]Into the universal valley
[02:46.26]
[03:20.09]The rosemary nods upon the grave
[03:26.80]
[03:27.50]The lily lolls upon the wave
[03:33.95]
[03:35.30]Wrapping the fog about its breast
[03:38.28]
[03:39.84]The ruin molders into rest
[03:43.98]
[03:46.83]Looking like lethe see the lake
[03:50.57]
[03:54.51]A conscious slumber seems to take
[03:58.36]
[04:02.01]And would not for the world awake
[04:06.14]
[04:09.64]And would not for the world awake
[04:13.82]
[04:23.16]All beauty sleeps and lo where lies
[04:30.54]
[04:38.45]All beauty sleeps and lo where lies
[04:45.96]
[05:01.88]O lady bright can it be right
[05:08.44]
[05:09.83]This window open to the night
[05:14.32]
[05:17.32]The wanton airs from the tree top
[05:23.76]
[05:25.52]Laughingly through the lattice drop
[05:29.60]
[05:32.37]The bodiless airs a wizard rout
[05:38.83]
[05:39.80]Flit through thy chamber in and out
[05:46.60]
[05:47.69]And wave the curtain canopy
[05:53.70]
[05:55.12]So fitfully so fearfully
[06:01.88]
[06:42.09]Above the closed and fringed lid
[06:47.76]
[06:49.30]Neath which thy slumb'ring soul lies hid
[06:55.10]
[06:56.91]That o'er the floor and down the wall
[07:02.66]
[07:04.39]Like ghosts the shadows rise and fall
[07:10.25]
[07:42.02]Oh lady dear hast thou no fear
[07:47.58]
[07:49.39]Why and what art thou dreaming here
[07:55.14]
[07:56.82]Sure thou art come o'er far off seas
[08:02.66]
[08:04.39]A wonder to these garden trees
[08:10.23]
[08:42.24]Strange is thy pallor strange thy dress
[08:47.50]
[08:49.27]Strange above all thy length of tress
[08:55.18]
[08:56.01]And this all solemn silentness
[09:10.45]
[09:12.49]The lady sleeps oh may her sleep
[09:17.52]
[09:19.45]Which is enduring so be deep
[09:24.90]
[09:27.25]Soft may the worms about her creep
