I Raise My Cup To Him
EURYDICEPour the wine and raise a cupDrink up, brothers, you know howAnd spill a drop for OrpheusWherever he is nowPERSEPHONESome birds sing when the sun shines brightMy praise is not for themBut the one who sings in the dead of nightI raise my cup to himEURYDICEWherever he is wanderingAlone upon the earthLet all our singing follow himAnd bring him comfortSome flowers bloom when the green grass growsMy praise is not for themBut the one who blooms in the bitter snowI raise my cup to himPERSEPHONEI raise my cup and drink it upEURYDICELetras de cancionesI raise it high and drink it dryPERSEPHONETo Orpheus and all of usGoodnight, brothers, goodnight
