My abyss

My fellow Germans were right.
My abyss looks at me at night,
With eyes of grey, without fright,
And all I see is sweet delight

I am no stranger to a fight
I have been hit from left and right,
This time no cavalry in sight,
I bow my head, my flag is white.

My abyss looks at me at night
With tender eyes, with gaze so bright
Perhaps I summon will to fight,
Not now, at the break of light.
