Requiem

Und hier ist meine Version des Requiem
von Robert Louis Stevenson,
zu dem ich gerade eine Melodie komponiere...

Under the wide and starry sky
dig the grave and let me lie.
Glad did I live and gladly die
and I laid me down with a will.

This be the verse you grave for me:
"Here he lies, where he longed to be.
Home is the sailor, home from the sea
and the hunter home from the hill."

From the sky the moon shines bright,
'neath the earth lies bare and still.
Sleep is a-coming, I close my limp eyes,
let me find to paradise !
