O death, o death, o death Won't you spare me over til' another year But what is this, that I can't see With ice cold hands taking hold of me When God is gone and the devil takes hold Who will have mercy on my soul? O death, o death Consider my age, please don't take me at this stage O death, o death Won't you spare me over til' another year O I am death and non can tell If I open the door to heaven or hell No wealth, no land, no silver, nor gold Nothing satisfies me but your soul I'm death I come to take the soul Leave the body and leave it cold O death, o death Won't you spare me over til' another year
