Who will place two coins on my eyes
Down the river Styx
My soul will glide

Two coins for the boatman
Ferry me away
To the throne of Persephone
Snatched from light of day

Two coins I cry
Two coins for my eyes
Through dark waters I float
To where my body must lie

Two coins for Charon
That looks away
Never seeing my face
Or the light of day
Two coins

Who will place two coins on my eyes
Down the river Styx
My soul will glide

Two coins for the boatman
Ferry me away
To the throne of Persephone
Snatched from light of day

Two coins I cry
Two coins for my eyes
Through dark waters I float
To where my body must lie

Two coins for Charon
That looks away
Never seeing my face
Or the light of day
Two coins
