Black art reigns here Oh Lord, come see the death of our Despina Oh the stars eternal angels hide their heads in shame Oh sweet Regina, Sinful These have tears scream on silent ears The death of our Despina Bride of death and sorrow Cursed to wander in the halls of no tomorrow Oh Lord, piteous, the dark and envious Has taken our Despina black veil All her eyes will see no more the silver Moon Black hearts mourned with fear Oh Lord, come see the death of our Despina Here we kneel before thee Sons of reason To thee we shall mourn Despina Till you unite the lover past with our Despina
