Enderal:The Song of the Last Sunset
The Song of the Last Sunset is one of the Bard Songs in Enderal. It describes a person ascending to their Eternal Path.
Lyrics
The light fades away
At the end of the day.
The sun slowly sinks
In its nocturnal grave.
You're leaving our world,
Rising up high,
To the Paths Eternal,
To the stars in the sky!
And we stay behind,
Alone in the dark.
Our lives will be lacking
The glow of your spark.
This is where your Path ends
And where it begins—
In the golden twilight,
The release of all strings.
You're leaving our world,
Rising up high,
To the Paths Eternal,
To the stars in the sky!
Now blessed you'll be
Till the end of all things—
No more toil of life,
No more weight on your wings.
The circle is closed
Between birth and decay.
Infinite wonders
Will embellish your way.
You're leaving our world,
Rising up high,
To the Paths Eternal,
To the stars in the sky!
When Malphas calls out,
We will hearken with grief
And follow your Path
To eternity!
