Gato Negro
Legado de Una Tragedia
Black Cat
GRAVEDIGGER I (Marcel Hölle)
Amidst the thick mist
I see your black hair
Shining among the shadows
Walking among the graves
Wandering in the night
Your eyes reach beyond
The good and the bad
GRAVEDIGGER I (Marcel Hölle)
What are you hiding?
Infernal cat, what do you want?
BLACK CAT
Be quiet, you must listen
I will narrate to you
The most terrible
Story that existed
Accursed insolent gravedigger!!!
Because I am Edgar Allan Poe
My essence remains here
Just a cat
That's what you see
I reincarnated like this
GRAVEDIGGER I (Marcel Hölle)
My God, it can't be
You? Edgar Allan Poe?
BLACK CAT
Since I died
I have been wandering
The Lord did not have mercy on me
GRAVEDIGGER I (Marcel Hölle)
My God, I can't believe it
My eyes cannot believe
What they are seeing is magic
It's an absurd delirium
BLACK CAT
I will tell you my story
The story of a poor devil
Who dreamed of beautiful verses
And only reached hell
The pain of my loneliness
All my incomprehension
The terrible desire to explain!
Even if I'm a fool like you
Who am I?
Edgar Allan Poe
My essence remains here
Just a cat
That's what you see
I reincarnated like this
You, then you will leave (You, then leave)
And to all you will tell (And to all I will tell)
BLACK CAT
That I, Edgar Allan Poe
Live in eternity!
Perhaps I could die
In peace if ever
The world sees that
Behind my voice there was love
For I am Edgar Allan Poe
My essence remains here
Just a cat
That's what you see
I reincarnated like this
