From sickly town
To large parade
It creeps and lurks among the way!
For neighbour’s blood and daughters rage
To the mere house-mouse
And corpse ablaze
A miracle that must contain
So many ashes in dismay
The vitriol in summer rain
Has poisoned bloodstreams in dismay
To piles and piles
Of bones just there
The grimmest reaper
Of the year

So many ashes in dismay

Has poisoned bloodstreams in dismay
To piles and piles
Of bones just there
The grimmest reaper
Of the year
