Heldenplatz

Silent so silent and silently

One tear for my years

White days after white days

The old churches still remembering

Whispers and souls of youngmen in love

And now I recall the warm heart of my emotion

The silence all around the snowy gardens

And late at night the last open cafe in a dark street

Down some stairs

She's gone into a distant light

Silent so silent and silently

One stone for my years

And all the others are gone

The silence all around the snowy gardens

And late at night the last open cafe

In a dark street down some stairs

The fable's ending

Vienna is still shining

Her chant cuts with a lament

The dying sunset beams

Blue blood of Winter

She's gone into a distant light
