Lyrics
Sahara
The lyric stays readable and compact here; the note and related paths sit nearby so you do not lose the song while looking for context.
A ballad of dark queen echoes through night
As he flees the curse of gods, the pharaoh's wrath
1001 nights unseen
The philosopher and the queen
Ancient mariner in a sea of sand
The burning beauty his tomb to die for
1001 nights unseen
The philosopher and the queen
(Horizon's swarming with death
Run!)
Heaven has a darkened face
Dunes are soaring, as on a chase
Caravan of the cursed
Chasing him across the waves
May he now rest under aegis of mirage
As the sands slowly turn to Elysian fields
1001 nights unseen
The philosopher and the queen
(One thousand and one)
1001 nights unseen
The philosopher and the queen
(One thousand and one)
One thousand and one
One thousand and one
