The Plague Lyrics

Darkened clouds cover the sky
Rays of light suddenly turn out shy
Distant pyres burn in haste
Send both lives and innocence to waste

Vident, vident, domini vident
Quam pestis perimet hostes et amicos
Probant in quo modo ea auget
Et multum muribus panem et vinum dant

Fear, tears, the reaper is here
Coming to take them away
They coughed, they scoffed, they spat and they leered And all gave in to the plague

The open book covered in clay
Pages torn, blown away
The Crown and Thing made a decree
The Plague and the Reaper will agree

Vident, vident...

Fear, tears...

Name the beast, say it was fate
That slew your kin and bred your hate
Seek no more, for it is you
Not discerning false from true

Vident, vident...

Fear, tears...
