Along the shore the cloud waves break,
The twin suns sink behind the lake,
The shadows lengthen - in Carcosa
Strange is the night where black stars rise,
And strange moons circle through the skies,
But strange still is - lost Carcosa
Songs that the Hades shall sing,
Where flap the tatters of the King,
Must die unheard in - dim Carcosa
Shall dry and die in - lost Carcosa
