Empyrium — Ode To Melancholy lyrics

Lyrics

Melancholy — still my desire for thy precious tragedian wine…
Sweep me away, into the vale of thine!
Where sorrow’s strong and so is joy.
Melancholy — still my desire, O let my heart by thee inspire…
O fill the air with thy sweet scent,
Let thy light, thy star crescent.
Wherever she dwells I will bid a farewell sigh
For she dwells with beauty — beauty that must die
And deep inside me I will wait for her return
To her enchanting, awe-inspiring flame I’ll yearn
O lust and rueful thought be mine,
My soul enhanced, desires…
Melancholy.
My heart is thine.
