Lyrics
War clouds are gathering and covering the sun- War clouds, collecting one by one; And, though they may avert a battle in a distant sea, Still, war clouds a-gather, oh together, over me War clouds are gathering and filling up the sky: War clouds that darken by and by… Out in the wilderness, young girls must lose their lives At the altar of the sanctimonious Sacrifice of Wives, At the Martyrdom of Motherhood, ensnared in webs and lies… Above it all, the vulture, lonely spectre in the sky, Has a glaze of trapped madness in his beady eye, While far below, the War God’s thunderous, velvet mantle cape, The Skylark and the Owl may yet escape…
