lyrics

Lyrics: Branwell Brontë (1817-1848)
Music: Walter Schleger & Fairway

Life is a passing sleep
Its deeds a troubled dream
And death the dread awakening
To daylight’s drawing beam

We sleep without a thought
Of what is past and o’re
Without a glimpse of consciousness
Of aught that lies before

We dream and on our sight
A thousand visions rise
Some dark as Hell some heavenly bright
Bat all are phantasies

We wake and oh how fast
These mortal visions fly!
Forgot amid the wonders vast
Of immortality

And oh! When we arise
With ‘wildered gaze to see
The aspect of those morning skies
Where will what waking be?

How will that Future seem?
What is Eternity?
Is Death the sleep? – Is Heaven the Dream?
Life the Reality?
