Theatre Of Tragedy - Sweet Art Thou Lyrics






Stay still patient; wilt thou my sister of merciful troth be?
I shall attempt the halter of thy life make less lighten'd

I shall climb the yew
Will it subdue me or not

Swooning emotions smite my bosom
I have in aptness depriev'd thy eyrie
Oh! - but ne'er alas
Fro many another a lass
Lodge here fore'ermore
Dodge thither sable of yore

A narrow dell hath now for me turn'd into a broad land
A land rich with fields of the Simbelmyne

Sonorous to my ears are the words form'd by thy tongue
Conquer me! - Waylay me! - Swathe me 'twixt thy arms
Make me sense the wine which is drunk by queens
And let it flow white and full in tast o'er my lips

Make me sense the wine which is drunk by kings
And let it flow red and full in taste o'er my lips

A dais'd bridge o'er the ghyll
In which a river bottomless
I would have drowned
Yet thou drewest me out soaking

Save thou art not yet all parched
Eavesdroppest ye: a wee drop
I can hear it! - I can feel it
Whence it comes I can only deem
Yet I will not tarry idly
Lest this for me is a gay dream
Let it adamant be
A dream that will sojourn eternally
Empty the flagon in me
In which theatre I will act

    "Stay still patient; wilt thou my sister of merciful troth be?
    I shall attempt the halter of thy life make less tighten'd!"
    "I shall climb the yew,

    "Swooning emotio

    Dodge thither sable of yore!"
    "A narrow dell hath now for me turn'd into a broad land;
    A land rich with fields of the Simbelmyn."
    "Sonorous to my ears are the words

    Make me sense the wine which is
    runk by queens,
    "Make me sense the wine which is drunk by kings, / And let it flow white and
    full in taste o'er my lips."
    And let it flow red and full in taste o'ver my lips."
    "A dais'd bridge o'er the ghyll,

    this is one of the most important and influential bands on the music ever and that is a fact, people that are uncapable to see it is becouse their poor taste and knowlege on music, only certain people is able to understand the theatre of treagedy's art... the time has proved it... TT Forever!!!
