Epilogue
Fool's Ghost Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
Fades away
See the stars
Invisible by day
Rest your head
In this darkened hour
All is over
Be at peace now
Stand in the sun
Birds still bravely sing
Pass through meadows
Streams gently bend
We'll meet again
Beyond the ether
But until then
All is well
Be at peace now
The Fool's Ghost song Epilogue appears to be a poignant goodbye to a loved one as they pass from the physical world into the ether. The first verse sets the scene with a description of twilight fading away, a metaphorical representation of the end of life. The stars, invisible during the day, symbolize the hope and light that will continue to shine even after death. The second verse is addressed to the departing loved one, asking them to rest in this dark hour, letting them know that all is over and well.
The third verse takes on a more positive tone, encouraging the loved one to stand in the sun and admire the beauty of nature. The birds still singing even in the face of death, and the meadows and streams continuing to flow, serve as reminders that life goes on despite our departures. The final verse is a promise that the singer and their loved one will meet again beyond the ether, indicating a belief in an afterlife. However, until then, the song encourages the listener to be at peace and to feel a sense of closure.

The evening twilight
The time of day when the sun has set and the sky is slowly transitioning from light to dark
Fades away
Gradually disappears and becomes less visible
See the stars
Observe the celestial bodies that shine brightly in the night sky
Invisible by day
Unable to be seen during daylight hours
Rest your head
Close your eyes and relax
In this darkened hour
During this time of low light or darkness
All is over
Everything has come to an end
All is well
Everything is OK
Be at peace now
Relax and feel calm and content
Stand in the sun
Be in the presence of sunlight
Birds still bravely sing
Despite the end of the day, birds continue to audibly express themselves
Pass through meadows
Walk or move through fields with grass and wildflowers
Streams gently bend
The waterways flow with a subtle curve or change in direction
We'll meet again
We will see each other once more
Beyond the ether
In a place unseen or unknown
But until then
However, until the future meeting
All is well
Everything is OK
Be at peace now
Relax and feel calm and content
