Beautiful; they can touch the soul |
- "Somewhere out in the darkness, a phoenix was singing in a way Harry had never heard before; a stricken lament of terrible beauty. [...] Harry felt, as he had felt about the Phoenix song before, that the music was inside him, not without ... How long they stood there, listening, he did not know, nor why it seemed to ease their pain a little to listen... [...] They all fell silent. Fawkes's lament was still echoing over the dark grounds outside."
- —Fawkes's lament after Dumbledore's death.[src]
History
Added by Mistress RemyWhen Albus Dumbledore died, his pet phoenix, Fawkes, sang a Phoenix Lament. It mesmerized all those gathered in the Hospital Wing; Harry Potter, Ron Weasley, Hermione Granger, Molly Weasley, Arthur Weasley, Ginny Weasley, Minerva McGonagall, Madam Pomfrey, Bill Weasley and Fleur Delacour. After Fawkes fell silent, he left Hogwarts, only returning for his master's funeral and then departing, presumably forever.
