Letra da Música The Triton's Daughter de Dagon

One night by a pallid moon, at a grotto by the sea
My eyes beheld a sight now carved into my mind eternally
Raven locks, lily skin, the ample curves of womanhood
But with a tail of oceankind
the legends then I understood

Forbidden longing, two worlds were never meant to pair
Passion culled by siren song drifting on the ocean air
Daughter of the lonely deep
there is no home we both can share
A love that cannot be, yet somehow it has come to bear

Languishing in solitude without her
Fixating on the vision of ocean mists about her
Languishing in solitude without her
My bosom holds but half a heart
without the triton's daughter

Fool, I said, within my mind, this love can't truly be
For you, the son of land-born man
and she the child of the rolling sea
But then my reason fell away
beneath the soaring song of heart
She and I, my heart declared, shall tie
as one and never part

But off the shore I thought I saw a luminescent eye
In a flicker it was gone and so I cast it from my mind
Foolish and myopic, I'm now haunted by the sight
It would undo the things I sought
and cast my being into the night

Doomed from the start
A love maligned by land and sea
Born of the heart
Despite what others say should be
I hold no regrets
'Tis better to have loved and lost
But I shan't forget
My love, my life, the dreadful cost
