Mediaeval Baebes - So Spricht Das Leben lyrics

So sayeth life, the world is mine

The flowers that bloom and the song of the birds

I am the daylight and the sunshine

So spricht das Leben, the world is mine

So sayeth death, the world is mine

Your daylight is but vein display

Stars and moon sink in eternal night

So spricht das Tod, the world is mine

So sayeth life, the world is mine

You make great tombs of marble and stone

But love, you cannot entomb

So spricht das Leben, the world is mine

So sayeth death, the world is mine

I have prepared a graveyard

And created pestilence and war

So spricht das Tod, the world is mine

So sayeth life, the world is mine

Every grave is a plot of land

Into which my eternal seeds do fall

So spricht das Leben, the world is mine
