Lyrics
Tote Gaerten
The lyric stays readable and compact here; the note and related paths sit nearby so you do not lose the song while looking for context.
Urnen füllen sich und Krügen
Mit der Jahre grünem Moose
Es verliert im Busch der Weg sich längst
Es verwilderte die Rose
Rost stürzt durch die Tür der Grüfte
Wo die Gräser fröhlich sprießen
Schloss und Riegel bröckeln nieder
Was ist hier noch zu verschließen?
Nutzlos sind die Lebenslettern
Denen, die so tief hier schlafen
Namen lösen sich und Zahlen
Von den alten Epitaphen
An den Steinen, die zerfallen
Und an den Kreuzen, die sich neigen
Merkst Du, dass die Totenklagen
Längste geheilt sind durch das Schweigen
Denn es löst die Zeit die Schmerzen
Die uns bleiben als Vermächtnis
Länger währt das Reich der Toten
Als der Lebenden Gedächtnis!
