Around the bloom they dwell,
Around the bloom they dwell,
And yet, the thorns remain forlorn.
Around the bloom they dwell.

My eyelids, and their tears they weep,
My eyelids, and their tears they weep,
My eyelids, and their tears they weep,
Trees near the river keep,
Trees near the river keep,
And yet, the thorns remain forlorn.
Around the bloom they dwell.

By chance, a laugh escaped our lips,
By chance, a laugh escaped our lips,
By chance, a laugh escaped our lips,
Revenge remains forlorn.
Revenge remains forlorn.
And yet, the thorns remain forlorn.
Around the bloom they dwell.

For moments bright, the moon's embrace,
For moments bright, the moon's embrace,
For moments bright, the moon's embrace,
Years of sorrow they must face.
Years of sorrow they must face.
And yet, the thorns remain forlorn.
Around the bloom they dwell.
Around the bloom they dwell.
