Dust And Ashes - Angelo Branduardi

作词：Angelo Branduardi/Luisa Zappa Branduardi

作曲：Angelo Branduardi

I am dust and ashes

My crown is worm and white bone

There's no man suckled milk

Though he run I will not call him

His chains will seem as feathers

When silently I lock mine

His iron gate but cobweb come his moment

I am dust and ashes

My jewels maggots crawling

There's no man woman loved

Will not surrender when I beckon

Sand is running my blade shining

Bend your heads why stay my welcome

The steps are worn my ferryman awaits you

Oh sir you do us honour

Attending on our humble dwelling

Lay down your glass and blade

And take a few turns with us

We beg you dance a few steps

A rondeau of remembrance

Forget a while the flesh

You should have taken

I am dust and ashes

My crown is worm and white bone

There's no man suckled milk

Though he run I will not call him

His chains will seem as feathers

When silently I lock mine

His iron gate but cobweb come his moment

I am dust and ashes

My jewels maggots crawling

There's no man woman loved

Will not surrender when I beckon

Sand is running my blade shining

Bend your heads why stay my welcome

The steps are worn my ferryman still awaits

Oh sir you do us honour

Attending on our humble dwelling

Lay down your glass and blade

And take a few turns with us

We beg you dance a few steps

A rondeau of remembrance

Forget a while the flesh

You should have taken

Oh sir you do us honour

Attending on our humble dwelling

Lay down your glass and blade

And take a few turns with us

We beg you dance a few steps

A rondeau of remembrance

Forget a while the flesh

You should have taken
