Crimson Moonlight - The Pilgrimage lyrics

rate me

As dawn melted my heart

I opened up my eyes

Red roses from above

Were planted inside of me

And when the never fading love

Was established in my heart

My traveling days began

I walked beside the constantly flowing

Spring of clear water

Always ready to slaked my thirst

And give me peace and strength

I ran towards the fields

Inviting me to let my tiered soul rest

How sweet they were

Those pastures of green

A smell of life filled the air

And the sun gave constant energy

To my once dead spirit

The magnificence of this paradise

Told a wonderful tale about a creation

Taking place since times immemorial

I could hear the tranquil whisper:

"Come closer to me, beloved one"

The Spirit's voiced touched

My ears with love and care

I continued the path

And stepped inside the forest

Still hearing the whisper:

"Come closer to me..."

But suddenly the beautiful trees

And days light turned

Into a landscape of thorn and fog

Soon I was lost in an unknown wilderness

And there was no end to my fright

Tears ran down my mourned face

And the pain showed no mercy

There I was, a helpless and frightened child

At last I fell down on my knees in prayer

While feeling the despair

Coming closer and closer

"Father, help me out of here", I screamed

But no answer was heard

"See my pain..." no one there

I became a lonely prisoner

Bound by chains of doubt

Nowhere could I find the meaning

Of things happening to me

At day I stood screaming, crying and praying

And at night I lay shaking in terrible helplessness

Finally, all my power was gone

And I nearly gave up it all

With my last strength I lifted

My face towards heaven and cried it out:

"Father, Thy will be done, and not mine"

Then I felt in a total less of power

Awaiting the arrival of another frozen night
