I ceased to live a death of days,
I ceased to live a death of days,
the cup I've cast away.
I ceased to live a death of days,
I ceased to live a death of days.

From threads of dreams, illusions spun,
from threads of dreams, illusions spun,
from threads of dreams, illusions spun,
from threads of dreams, illusions spun,
I've left the stitching of wounds undone,
I've left the stitching of wounds undone,
the cup I've cast away.
I ceased to live a death of days,
I ceased to live a death of days.

As dusk descends, a solace sought,
as dusk descends, a solace sought,
that comfort I have now forgot.
I ceased to live a death of days,
I ceased to live a death of days,
the cup I've cast away.
I ceased to live a death of days,
I ceased to live a death of days.

The tempest's fury, it did me please,
the tempest's fury, it did me please,
the tempest's fury, it did me please,
the tempest's fury, it did me please,
so I've abandoned all the seas,
so I've abandoned all the seas,
the cup I've cast away.
I ceased to live a death of days,
I ceased to live a death of days.

The wine I've spurned, and now it seems,
The wine I've spurned, and now it seems,
I've left behind life's vital streams.
I ceased to live a death of days,
I ceased to live a death of days,
the cup I've cast away.
I ceased to live a death of days,
I ceased to live a death of days.

Shehzad, in dreams, his life did keep,
Shehzad, in dreams, his life did keep,
Shehzad, in dreams, his life did keep,
Shehzad, in dreams, his life did keep,
that coquettish love, he let it sleep,
that coquettish love, he let it sleep,
the cup I've cast away.
I ceased to live a death of days,
I ceased to live a death of days.
