And then when then I die
I feel I shall say
I have not understood
I have not understood any of this
My eyes are still coaldark
I have not understood
Around and in my eyes the tiny flecks
Of swirling crippled confused lights
And to my heart I will whisper
Softly quietly
"There is no death there is no death"
(And goodbye to you all)
Under the gorgon grinned arches
Of London's great vaults
I have not understood
Under the sunpuckered roofs of Kathmandu
I have not understood
Along the soulstoned streets
Of Lower
And of Higher Germanie
I have not understood
Leipzig: blackeyed pain and loss: she
I have not understood
In Clare near I
The empty lakes are open in the distance
And too close is the faminereatchingroad
All these are ghosts
There I have not understood
(In the Heart of the Wood
Oh there have I understood)
I rested at the temple of Great Black Time - Her
And did not understand
Though animalbled fleshmarbled rivers ran in Her honour
His buckled body in blood
Returns to the prebirth poise
Spreadeagled like starfish -
There in His eyes:
Incomprehension mute pain disbelief what
Blood there meant sorrow trickles there
This I could not understand
I bend the pages of yet another book
And in its lines Great Black Lines
I have not understood
Please gramerey pray for me
And oh goodbye sweetestheart
The wind roars in the nearness
And there in my heart
And all the clouds are spiralling towards us
Descent indeed to the centre of it all
Skipping lightly and lying truly
This we shall understand
I hope...
Wet bent humped trees
The great ones - there
On the lapped shore
Dai Ichi
There also I do not know
This is all unknowable
And as the dust covers
My empty eyes
You shall read in these foolish gapes
Oh that I have not understood
(But if you look for the stag and the cross conjoined
There on my arm look there
There I have understood very well)
Now you are all fading
All fading
As my age creeps on
As This Age stumbles on
Fires in the earth
Fires in the sky
Fires in our hearts
Fires everywhere
The black eyes
Already blacken
And this I have not understood
Not peace
But a sword
This and He
Unfortunately
I have understood
Under the bowered greenwood tree
When first I lay
Bright starre with Thee
Under the velvet branches dear
When sun and moon both came so near
Under the starlit open dome
Under the starsharp pointed lights
Under the starloved greeny earth
When first I wanted to hold You
And all the world halfdead and halflive
Spat into my mouth
Bluesea bitterwater
And I am almost dead
And I have not understood
Under the rain and teeth of gods
Under the pain and sleeping liddy eyes
Under the brokkd wetful heaven
If you are there
If you are there
If you are there
Then I am singing with my eyes
If you are there

歌詞解析
一句話主旨
面對存在本質的困惑與靈魂旅程的無解，展現對真理的掙扎與掙扎中的靜默。
主題
探討人類對生命、死亡與神祕真理的無限困惑，並透過地理與宗教意象描繪靈魂的流浪與未解之謎。
情緒
深沉的憂鬱與無奈，夾雜著對未知的敬畏與對理解的渴望，形成一種靜默的掙扎感。
意象與手法
運用「coal-dark eyes」（煤黑雙眼）、「swirling crippled confused lights」（旋轉殘破迷惘的光點）等具象意象，營造視覺上的混沌感；地名如倫敦、加德滿都、萊比錫等象徵靈魂的地理性漂泊，而「Great Black Time」（偉大黑時間）則暗示時間與命運的壓迫。
重點句解讀
1. 「I have not understood」（我仍未理解）：反覆出現的句式強調對生命本質的無解，象徵人類理性面對神祕時的局限。
2. 「There is no death there is no death」（沒有死亡，沒有死亡）：以重複語句試圖安撫自我，卻凸顯內在的不安與對永恆的懷疑。
3. 「Under the bowered greenwood tree」（在蔭蔽的樹下）：引用宗教意象，暗示靈魂在自然與神聖之間尋找答案的嘗試。
4. 「Fires in our hearts」（我們心中的火）：以「火」隱喻激情、焦慮或靈魂的燃燒，強化存在主義式的掙扎。
適合情境
獨處沉思、面對生命疑問時，或在靜謐環境中感受靈魂的飄搖與掙扎。
