The face ablaze, a rhythm now astray,
Such cold indifference, what shadows play?
Tell us the tale, the face ablaze,
A changed gait, through life's intricate maze.
Such cold disdain, what shadows embrace?
Tell us the tale, the face ablaze.

Do share the cause, oh honored one,
Whose envious gaze has dimmed your sun?
Do share the cause, the mystery's hold,
Whose shadowed glance has made you cold?
Speak of the ache, the sorrow's sting,
Tell us the tale, the words you bring,
The face ablaze, a changed decree,
Such coldness shown, what must it be?
Tell us the tale, the face ablaze.

Who is this form that haunts your mind,
We, your devotees, left far behind?
Who is this form, that steals your thought,
We, your loyal ones, now dearly bought?
With us, then, why this heart's dark plea?
Tell us the tale, our destiny,
The face ablaze, a rhythm's sway,
Such coldness now, to what will you say?
Tell us the tale, the face ablaze.

Midst subtle words, your anger flares,
As worries fade, lost in other cares.
Midst subtle words, you seem to fall,
Leaving thought behind the wall.
Is this a game, a vibrant hue?
Tell us the tale, we look to you,
The face ablaze, a changed design,
Such coldness shown, a darkened shrine.
Tell us the tale, the face ablaze,
A changed gait, through life's intricate maze.
Such cold disdain, what shadows embrace?
Tell us the tale, the face ablaze.
