Joan of Arc Lyrics

Rigid and severe

Guarded by a suite of logs

Thoroughly piled up

Stands the maleficent post that holds

The immaculate body of the maiden

The bonfire has begun to burn

And its thick black smoke

Wearingly ascends

And among broken clouds fades away

Flames begin to bite her flesh

A bell bares its chant to the wind

The eyes of the warrior are lost

In the most diverse dreams

And they are filled with angels

And silver doves

Her ears crack

With the hissing of the fire

That with a roar devours

Her fervent body

In a turmoil of flashes

Brilliance and incandescence

Slowly her figure waned

Along with the pyre

And only a glow remained

Of what she once was

With the flames her flesh melted away

Her bones turned to ashes

And the pupils of those

Who witnessed the fire

Even after a long time

Are still burning and shaking
