letra de bells pt.4 (e. a. poe) - aeons ov frost

hear the tolling of the bells-
iron bells!
what a world of solemn thought their monody compels!
in the silence of the night,
how we shiver with affright
at the melancholy menace of their tone!
for every sound that floats
from the rust within their throats
is a groan.
and the people- ah, the people-
they that dwell up in the steeple,
all alone
and who, tolling, tolling, tolling,
in that m-ffled monotone,
feel a glory in so rolling
on the human heart a stone-
they are neither man nor woman-
they are neither brute nor human-
they are ghouls:
and their king it is who tolls;
and he rolls, rolls, rolls,
rolls
a paean from the bells!
and his merry bosom swells
with the paean of the bells!
and he dances, and he yells;
keeping time, time, time,
in a sort of runic rhyme,
to the paean of the bells-
of the bells:
keeping time, time, time,
in a sort of runic rhyme,
to the throbbing of the bells-
of the bells, bells, bells-
to the sobbing of the bells;
keeping time, time, time,
as he knells, knells, knells,
in a happy runic rhyme,
to the rolling of the bells-
of the bells, bells, bells:
to the tolling of the bells,
of the bells, bells, bells, bells-
bells, bells, bells-
to the moaning and the groaning of the bells.
