A dusk in shadows, a palace in pain
 A king without crown and
 A queen in shame
 A sceptre destroyed
 Among a throne maimed
 A jester's court raptured in flames
 A shallow moor in fog silhouette
 A castle of souls breathes
 Haunted breath
 A path of blood royal
 Upon ancient steps
 A noble birth wrought
 Forgotten death

 And stone
 A fallen angel without heaven
 Or home
 A sombre praise borne by no one
 A gallant virtue among clouds
 Without sin
 A dusk in shadows, a fortune of fame
 A monarch of lust, forever erased
 A rapture in twilight,
 A cold northern blaze
 A solicitude of death
 Unknown in disgrace
