 
    In darkness let me dwell
The ground, the ground shall sorrow be 
The roof of despair which bares all cheerful light from me 
To bar all cheerful light 
The walls marble black which moistened still shall weep from me 
They still shall weep forever in darkness 
To bar all cheerful light 
The roof of despair which bares all the cheerful light from me 
To bar all cheerful light 
My queen I only wish my song to please thee 
I wish to be the minstrel in your gallery 
I wish to be the minstrel in your gallery 
My music 
Jarring, jarring 
Jarring, jarring sounds to banish sleep 
Thus bedded to my woes and bedded, bedded to my tomb 
Oh let me living die, oh let me living 
Oh let me living die 
Till death do come, till death do come 
Till death, till death do come
