What is here but darkness and dread
All around me and in my heart...
Before me blood of hundreds is shed
Will I see you once ere I’m dead?
I feel lonely and frightened as hell
Still I love you and ever I shall.
But my orders they sound like the knell
Will I live till the morn? Time will tell...
You must know that my chances are few
If I write no more- pray for my soul.
When this spring I have parted with you
I knew not- I shall not see you more...
The advance- it is set for the morn.
In the first line am I to face gore.
And if I leave this world at the dawn
You will know- I shall not see you more.
You're a star in the night- guide my way!
You're my angel- don't leave me behind!
Stay with me on this path or I stray...
On your way do not fear, do not cry...
