Forgotten Men (homines obliti)

Beatus es, mi fili

Obra de dios liber Dei

Seruati sumus

De tenebris

Salus Christo

Luce Dei

Ad claritatem

Dat amorem

Silas

Siccent lacrimas



We lived a life before

That no one knows

Darker than the night

So many died



A holy man came with a golden ring

Asking us to serve

The holy king



Hopeless within the darkness

Weeping their tears so softly

Those men, who were forgotten

After countless years



Hopeless within the darkness

Weeping their tears so softly

Life-less although they were alive

Me with unknown names

Feeling so ashamed



Beatus es, mi fili

Obra de dios liber Dei

Seruati sumus

De tenebris

Salus Christo

Luce Dei

Ad claritatem

Dat amorem

Gratia

Siccent lacrimos



He gave us a new home

For evermore

Asked us to kneel down

And kiss his ring

Then we swore the oath

To Jesus Christ

Thankful as we were

Till we would die



Beatus es, mi fili

Obra de dios liber Dei

Seruati sumus

De tenebris

Salus Christo

Luce Dei

Ad claritatem

Dat amorem

Gratia

Siccent lacrimos



Hopeless within the darkness

Weeping their tears so softly



Hopeless within the darkness

Weeping their tears so softly

Life-less although they were alive

Me with unknown names

Feeling so ashamed
