And in the end
When life has passed
Someone shall plant
An alder tree above us
And in its bark
Carve letters and a heart
Tiny marks
Of lovers no longer apart
The ties of life that kept us bound
They will be severed, will be severed underground
And in the end
When life is through
I will spent
Eternity with you
For though in life
I could never be your bride
In death I shall
Lie forever at your side
And people resting under the tree, in the grass
They´ll never know what it all meant to us
And people spotting the letters and the heart
Will never know how we finally are united in the dark
But our true love
It will be sealed
By all who kiss
Under our alder tree
