Lyric

Ah! Morning star, eternal night

A darkness endless, void of light

The shore has no foam, the dawn won’t rise

Cold as snow, pale tears in my eyes

This day is not the heaven, not the flame of song

The fire I sought, the light I long

Jewel of my heart, jewel of doom

The gold still shines, even in gloom

Be silent! Listen! Hear the night

The star-sign glows, casting silver light

Jewel of my heart, jewel of doom

The gold shines strong within the song

In the time of the Forest-king

Lost without end, no star to bring

Death of the heart, death of the dark

The sun shines cold, a hopeless spark

The doom in the wood, the doom in the pale light

Fire of silence, fire of might

Jewel of my heart, jewel of doom

The gold still shines within the gloom

Ah! A faint star lights the sky

In night, in dark, in the heart of sighs

Fire of silence, fire of song

Fire of the heart, burning strong!

Be silent! Listen! Hear the night

The star-sign glows, casting silver light

Jewel of my heart, jewel of doom

The gold shines strong within the song

I am the pale light, I am the night

The king of fire, the silence bright

Star of the sun, the morning’s flame

I shine eternal, I am the name
