Minstrel, serenade your sad euphony
As I sing my song of rapture
For its sweet melodies evoke
Pictures of untouched beauty
Minstrel, serenade your sad euphony
As I sing my song of rapture
Loveless!!!
Lead the cotillion of melancholy
Waltz with me in apathy
Into the autumn shade
My grim sonata of life
A concerto for the unloved
I now die without love
Into the autumn shade
