I Raise My Cup to Him Lyrics

[00:03.73] EURYDICE
[00:04.67] Pour the wine and raise a cup
[00:08.92] Drink up, brothers, you know how
[00:16.35] And spill a drop for Orpheus
[00:20.45] Wherever he is now
[00:26.98] PERSEPHONE
[00:28.67] Some birds sing when the sun shines bright
[00:32.56] My praise is not for them
[00:36.97] But the one who sings in the dead of night
[00:41.66] I raise my cup to him
[00:50.32] EURYDICE
[00:51.21] Wherever he is wandering
[00:55.95] Alone upon the earth
[01:02.24] Let all our singing follow him
[01:11.78] Some flowers bloom when the green grass grows
[01:17.05] My praise is not for them
[01:24.89] But the one who blooms in the bitter snow
[01:25.62] I raise my cup to him
[01:37.38] PERSEPHONE
[01:42.13] I raise my cup and drink it up
[01:47.08] EURYDICE
[01:48.15] I raise it high and drink it dry
[01:49.63] PERSEPHONE
[01:50.37] To Orpheus and all of us
[01:54.47] Goodnight, brothers, goodnight
[02:00.15]
