Nocturnal Strains

When the veil of night covers
 The whitest orchids of the night
 I feel the darkest velvet in my arms
 I follow the calling tune
 The strains of the darkest night
 And enjoy the silent song of a nightingale
 I raise the silver goblet full of the nightly dew
 And feel the sweetest taste of the darkest tears
 The Dark wind of time is blowing...
 Years are passing by...
 But the sounds of night remain the same...
 I see valkyrias dancing
 With rays of the crescent's light
 Their dance is so enchanting... so wild
 They come to share the last dance with me
 Accompanied by the nocturnal strains
 How could I live, if night faded away?
 I would lose my shield and the place to hide...
 It would be the end of my way
 From the first dusk till the last dawn...
 The Dark wind of time is blowing...
 Years are passing by...
 But the sounds of the night remain the same...
 I see valkyrias dancing
 With rays of the crescent's light
 Their dance is so enchanting... so wild
 They come to share the last dance with me
 Accompanied by the nocturnal strains
