Winds Devouring Men (2003)
LYRICS:
The night shade
A dark colonnade
The cypress, then the shore...
I sought comfort in the foam
The wind heals the pain
A pale november rises
You know how the days gone by
Even night sought shelter
Under the plain masks of daylight
Bitterness we wait...
We ate the fruits of rainy hours
As Ulysses looking seaward
We mocked our innermost abodes
We sailed on older seas
And reached the bounds of deepest water
A wreckage in the rain
But the winds heal the pain

Weeping Nights (1997) A free adaption of a song by Henry Purcell. Words, adaption and arrangements by Hasnawi/Tschirner.
LYRICS:
From your embrace
Where sleeps an eternal Night,
Let me emerge and sing this Elendian plaint,
For all the pearls have vanished that shone before.
Teach me in pure melodious songs to move
With sirenian might
These hearts who died in joy.
Lord, let the soul of music tune my voice
For death and despair have soiled the shores of Heaven.
Ah! Let the soul of music tune my voice
And cast down with sin oppressed Ill be longing
For your embrace.")
