English text
Come marry me unto the earth.
Cover me up with your roses,
Cover me up with the ashes of my youth.
I’ll drink the night gladly.
Bend me to the arms of the earth.
Fill my ears, pond deep.
Eyes are for dreaming,
Ease them shut.
Skin is for the living,
Crumple it to the floor,
Skin is for the living,
Live no more.
But let me keep my love.
Trust me with your remembering,
And watch me off to sleep.
