Capulet’s Lament

Written By Daniel Gordon Adams

All things festival

Turn black funeral

Our instruments to melancholy bells

Our wedding cheer to a sad burial feast

My child is dead

And with my child

My joys are buried

Solemn hymns to sullen dirges

Bridal flowers laid on a casket

All things change to the contrary

My child is dead

My child is dead

And with my child

My joys are buried
