Beneath the Fading Sun

Today I weep And who shall do the same For empty halls and shadowed flames For kin that nigh remain Tonight I sleep And nightmares have their reign In grayish dawns and visions gone The world is not the same Tomorrow see A lonely child in pain His father torn in tides of war But tears cannot regain I cannot believe As I see the fading sun The child has turned and gone away The future now is done
