Lyrics by Dante Gabriel Rossetti, music by Hexperos

Afar away the light that brings cold cheer
Unto this wall, – one instant and no more
Admitted at my distant palace-door
Afar the flowers of Enna from this drear
Dire fruit, which, tasted once, must thrall me here.
Afar those skies from this Tartarean grey
That chills me: and afar how far away,
The nights that shall become the days that were.
Afar from mine own self I seem, and wing
Strange ways in thought, and listen for a sign:
And still some heart unto some soul doth pine,
(Whose sounds mine inner sense in fain to bring,
Continually together murmuring) —
'Woe me for thee, unhappy Proserpine'.
— D. G. Rossetti

This is an old Alessandra Santovito's song that she wrote for her previous project named Gothica. Proserpina poetry appears at the top right corner of the homonymous painting

Alessandra Santovito -- voice
Francesco Forgione -- hammer dulcimer; keyboards
Domenico Mancini -- violin
Francesco Savoretti - percussions
