Перевод песни King Diamond - The lake

Every Sunday morning, well just before dawn
A little girl is dancing on the mansion lawn
She calls out a name: “Dagon from the sea”
Appear from the darkest deep and hear my need”

Down by the lake, there’s the shadow of grief
Dancing hand in hand with the Devil

Watching from the bridge the one near by the lake

“Oh sister Margaret, no need to hate
Yes we all know that you’re serving the cross
But this time my dear, well you’ve lost”

Down by the lake, there’s the shadow of grief
Dancing hand in hand with the Devil

And the nun has been seen
“I want your cross
Now come and play sister Margaret!”

Full of pride, the nun won’t give in
She comes down the lawn scared as hell
The little girl is grinning
When sister Margaret disappears in the lake

Down by the lake, there’s the shadow of happiness
Dancing hand in hand with the Devil
