The Lake Lyrics - Nolwenn Leroy

In spring of youth it was my lot 

To haunt of the wide world a spot 

The which I could not love the less 

So lovely was the loneliness 

Of a wild lake, with black rock bound, 

And the tall pines that towered around. 

But when the night had thrown her pall 

Upon that spot, as upon all. 

And the mystic wind went by 

Murmuring in melody 

Then a then I would awake 

To the terror of the lone lake. 

Yet that terror was not fright, 

But a tremulous delight 

A feeling not the jewelled mine 

Could teach or bribe me to define 

Nor love although the love were thine.

And the mystic wind went by 

Murmuring in melody 

Then a then I would awake 

To the terror of the lone lake. 

Death was in that poisonous wave, 

And in its gulf a fitting grave 

For him who thence could solace bring 

To his lone imagining 

Whose solitary soul could make 

And Eden of that him lake. 

Of a wild lake, with black rock's around's you 

And the tall pines that towered around. 

No more love, no more pain 

To, to define 

And the mystic wind went by 

Then ah then I would awake 

And Eden of that him lake

Then a then I would awake 

To the terror of the lone lake. 

And the mystic wind went by 

Murmuring in melody 

Then a then I would awake 

To the terror of the lone lake.
