My poetic attempt to do what I have not seen anyone try before, to my knowledge, set the classical piece "Moonlight Sonata" to lyrics. This is to the first movement only. Here goes:
Upon the ground
The shadows play
In the darkened night
--------
Yes, they dance
Under the moon
Now awakened by
Heart's broken tune
--------
So cold
So deep
And now
No more
--------
My mind
my soul
--------
Now I see
My fate
--------
Oh, let me sing
This sorrowful hymn
--------
I weep
In mind
--------
I weep
In mind
--------
Oh, solemn the moment
I felt the heart fall
Oh, solemn the moment
I felt my soul bend
--------
Upon the ground
The shadows play
In the darkened night
--------
Yes, they dance
Under the moon
--------
I see black before me
I see gray before me
--------
I see now
There is no more
--------
I see now
That time has gone
--------
Let me ache
--------
Alone
Alone
