Come Away Death - Franco Battiato

Come Away Death - Franco Battiato
Come away come away death
And in sad Cyprus let me be laid
Fie away fie away breath
I am slain by a fair cruel maid
My shroud of white stuck all with you
O prepare it
My part of death no one so true
Did share it
Not a flower not a flower sweet
On my black coffin' let there be strewn
Not a friend not a friend greet
My poor corpse where my bones shall be thrown
A thousand thousand sighs to say
Lay me over
Sad true lover never find my grave
To weep there
To weep
To weep there
