Heaven and Hell


1.
Heaven is so beautiful – its virtues are all divine;
like radiant gold or silver, like chosen rubies worth.
And yet when the love is done – all that shine –
will feel like hungering darkness, as you fall down to earth…


2.
Heaven is so merciful – so bounteous its ways;
like thousand years shall pass on you – still not knowing yonder.
How pitiless is time, no substance stays the same…
how could you stand mortality and not in darkness wonder?


3.
Heaven is so blissful – no sorrow in your heart
shall linger there and burden you til' your wings could fly.
Darkness is so heavy, draws from God apart;
like the earth so far away from the endless shining sky!


4.
Heaven is so dreadful – he who has tasted it,
beware your darkness around you, for nothing looks the same.
Kingdoms already have crumbled; shattered many wits.
Enlightenment is no power, loosing it is no game…
