Lament II: A Paroxysm Called Desire Lyrics

Album: Cantar

My desire as Fire Divine,

it's like a flame that kisses the rain

Behold!

I can see a desire in your eyes,

beyond a gate from which the keeper passed away

The awaking warmth - I joined before now

seems cloaked in reticence

Still I can't rest till there is a sign of gloomy fervour

You wished for death, so I sent you an Angel

A cry of despair so was to blare

But hope and respect never existed

My Angel, Redeemer of pent-up desire

Desire as Fire Divine,

it's like a flame, kissing the rain

The confession of my sins you greet with solitude

Your tender eyes... unfathomable

Your spirit and your mind... inscrutible

But I noticed a virtue in that well of loneliness

I am living and I'm killing

the remains of a desert past

What was intended no to be now is a thread,

day by day

Relaese me... from this burden

... Somehow your beauty never fades ...

My desire as Fire Divine,

it's like a flame that kisses the rain

And gratitude for blatant nothingness

You are my mystery ...
