Why? - Eloy

Slowly nears the night

Silence fills the air

The afterglow of the fading day — Twinkles in magic light

The weapons are silent now

Ours is the victory

The darkness of night — Covers the sight of the fallen on the battlefield

Far from the distance we hear a sound

The cathedral bells announce a glorious day

Finally we cross the town

The virgin at our side

The battle is won — Joy everywhere — We see an elated crowd

But still there’s something, decreasing her joy and hurting her heart

Her only thought is «Why?»

Inwardly torn — She implores the saints with tears in her eyes // Asking for

the reasons «Why?»
