Moments of Mournful Splendour (At the Portal to Infinity)

Tempting symphonies reach me
From out of the distant dark
Awaking from their slumber
Shadows are dancing by my side
While the moonchild reflects
Her portrait in the sky
And whispering echoes are engulfed
In the obscurity of night
- I welcome thee
Moment of mournful splendour

As the moon caresses the waveless sea
And the wind sings its bitter sweet melody
My soul leaves its carnal prison
To melt once again with
The desolation of the night
- I yearn for thee
Moment of mournful splendour
