Peste Noire

Amidst the fog of dread Fear, the pestilence Spread far and near It claws were sharp Its grip was tight, no mercy Given in its blight, the plague It came with deadly force, a curse upon Mankind's remorse Victims writhed in agony Souls condemned to misery The streets were empty The towns forlorn Silent whispers, mourning, and mourn The stench of death Was in the air Peste Noire The rats, they scurried, unafraid As if they knew What fate had laid, the darkness Spread like wildfire A funeral pyre Peste Noire The dead piled up, uncounted, lost Their lives extinguished At great cost The bells they tolled A mournful knell A final toll and farewell Peste Noire The plague It passed but left Its mark a shadow cast Forever dark A reminder of man's mortal fate A warning lest we tempt Our fate Amidst the fog of dread Fear, the pestilence Spread far and near It claws were sharp Its grip was tight, no mercy Given in its blight, the plague It came with deadly force, a curse upon Mankind's remorse Victims writhed in agony Souls condemned to misery The streets were empty The towns forlorn Silent whispers, mourning, and mourn The stench of death Was in the air Peste Noire L'espoir, l'existence, l'amour Noir Le ciel, la mer, les cœurs Tout noir Peste Noire Tout est noir Peste Noire
