Unmuffle the tongues of the funeral bells


Unmuffle the tongues of the funeral bells
Let those who mourn know the songs of the joy
of the love of the loved ones for whom they grieve
a love that death can never destroy

Such love cannot die
for it never was born
is the source and the goal and the ground
is the tongue and the song in the ringing
is the bell and the ear and the sound


is the tongue and the song in the ringing
is the bell and the ear and the sound
