The Haunted Palace In The Poe' Land
In the greenest of our valleys by good angels tenanted,
once a fair and stately palace,
radiant palace reared its head.
In the monarch thought's dominion, it stood there!
Never seraph spread a pinion over fabric half so fair!
Banner yellow, glorious, golden,
on it's roof did float and flow,
this all this was in the olden time long ago.
And every gentle air that dallied,
in that sweet day,
along the ramparts plumed and pallid,
a winged odor went away
wanderers in that happy valley.
Through two luminous windows,
saw spirits moving musically,
to a lute's well tuned law.
Round about a throne where, sitting Porphyrogene,in state his glory well befitting the ruler of the realm was seen.
And all with pearl and ruby glowing was the fair palace door, through which came flowing, flowing, flowing and sparkling evermore,
a troop of Echoes, whose tweet duty was but to sing,
in voices of surpassing beauty,
the wit and wisdom of their king.
But evil things, in robes of sorrow,
assailed the monarch's high estate.
Ah! Let us mourn!
For never morrow
shall dawn upon him, desolate!
And round about his home the glory that blushed and bloomed
is but a dim-remembered story
of the old time entombed.
And travelers, now, within that valley,
through the encrimsoned windows
see vast forms that move fantastically
to a discordant melody,
while, like a ghastly rapid river
through the pale door
a hideous through rush
out forever and laugh
but smile No More!

The Queen Of The Valley
Down there in the valley dipped into the green
there was a small village and the queen
They told me it's a very good place
a little refuge for human race
I went there a day I had some troubles
'couse to calm my restless spirit I wasn't able
the queen was there near by the brook
sitting on the grass reading a book.
She was young but enough wise
to be the guardian angel of that hidden paradise
she stopped reading her little book
asking to me if something I took
only my soul I answer only my pain
I've tried to soften it but in vane
smiling to me she took my hand
I've got the answer to (your demand)
Here in the valley we live a simple life
we don't ask too much the nature is rife
we are all the same and as you have seen
I am the woman
I am the queen
leave your vanity out of my reign
and with it your troubles and all your pains
you are a man and you might be king
if you just get out of your weakness ring
forget your name forget your desire
listen to your heart to your inner fire
years are passed since there I have been now
I am king and she is my Queen
She is my Queen
And she is my Queen

The Man In The Dreamland
Once upon a time
I knew a dreamer
he was a stranger to himself too
an alien in an alien world
I met a real dreamer
sleeping in his cloud
touching the moon
with snow hands
Walking around the world
his eyes were so pure
but people doesn't understand him
He found wonderful cities
he saw wonderful places
everybody everything
was a new dream for him
He got children around
and girls too
making never ending journeys
he was so happy on his cloud
walking in the skies
in never ending seas
I've found that man
I'm feeling my thoughts
clapping in my head
a man smiling to me
on higher climbs
in the darkest streets
I've found that man
smiling to me
I've found my soul my friend
I've found my soul my friend
with you in me

Magic Stairway pt. 1
You never ever feel the sound
You never ever looked around
You always let me on my own
You always talk without a doubt
You're looking at me without a word to say
and I'm asking you a minute of eternity
I want to run away from you
I want to go up the stair of life
I wish I could realize my goal
I never ever tried before
magic stairway drive me up to heaven
I'm running away from this static life without a sound
magic stairway let me know my way
I know there should be something more
important than money and pride
Step by step I realized the time I wasted of my life
A tear for joy was on my face
down the stupid ants were running all around
Hey stupid men! Don't run around no more
you could lie or could die saying the truth
come with me on the magic stairway you will hear
from up above the real sound of life!!!

To Sorrow Good Morrow pt. 1
To sorrow I bade good morrow and thought to leave
her far away behind but cheerly cheerly
she loves me dearly she is so constant to me and so kind
I would deceive her and so leave her but ah!
she is so constant and so kind
Beneath dark palm trees by the river side
I sat a-weeping in the whole world wide
there was no one to ask me why I wept and so I kept
Brimming the water-lily cups with tears cold as my fears
Beneath dark palm trees by a riverside to sorrow I bade tomorrow.
And I set over the light blue hills there came a noise of revelers the rills
into the wide stream came of purple hue twas bacchus and his crew!

And as I set over the light blue hills
there came a noise of revelers the rills
into the wide stream came of purple hue
twas bacchus and his crew
The earnest trumpet spake and silver thrills from kissing cymbals
made a merry din twas bacchus and his ki
Young stranger I've been a ranger in search of pleasure throughout every climbe alas
'tis not for me bewitched I sure must be to lose in grieving all my maiden prime
Come then sorrow sweetest sorrow like an own babe I nurse you on my breast
I thought to leave you and deceive you but now of all the world I love you best...

To Sorrow Good Morrow pt. 4
He did not stir his eyes from the dead leaves
or one small pulse of joy he might have felt
The spirit culls unfaded amaranth when wild it strays
through the old garden ground of boyish days
A little onward ran the very stream by wich
he took his first soft poppy dream
and on the very bark 'gainst wich he leant
A crescent he had carved and round it spent his skill in little stars
the teeming tree had swollen and greened the pious charactery
but not taken out why there was not a slope up wich he had not feared the antelope
and not a tree beneath whose rooty shade
he had not with his tamed leopards played
nor could an arrow light or javelin
fly in the air where his had never been
and yet he knew it not ooooooo

The Sweetness Of The Pain pt. 1
Oh for some sunny spell
to dissipate the shadows of this hell
Say they are gone with the new dawning light
steps forth my lady brightOh let me once more rest
My soul upon that dazzling breast!
Let once again these aching arms be placed,
the tender gaolers of your waist!
And let me feel that worm breathe here and there
to spread a rapture in my very hair
Oh the sweetness of the pain!
Give me those lips again
Enough enough, it's enough for me
to dream of you! to dream of you!
Enough, enough for me!

The Sweetness Of The Pain pt. 2
This living hand now warm and capable
of earnest grasping would if it were cold
and in the icy silence of the tomb
so haunt your days and chill your dreaming nights
that you would wish thine own heart
dry of blood so in my veins red life might stream again,
and you be conscience calm'd
See here it is I hold it towards you
oh for some sunny spell
to dissipate the shadows of this hell!
Say there are gone!
Say there are gone!
