benjamin britten - slaughter lyrics
Loading...
within the violence of the storm
the wise men are made dumb:
young bones are hollowed by the worm;
the babe dies in the womb
above the lover’s mouth is pressed
the silence of a stone:
fate rides upon an iron beast
and tramples cities down
and shall the multitudinous grave
our enmity inter;
these dungeons of misrule enslave
our bitternеss and fear?
all are the conquеred; and in vain
the laurel binds the brow:
the phantoms of the dead remain
and from our faces show
