Once again now the great darkness will appear
And all of us must go to war
Hear the gods call for flesh and for revenge
For our land demands new blood, it has run dry
Bring me my enemies, they must die for our salvation
Their hearts will burn down in our fire
Their fate is sealed and they will fall into damnation
The stars guide our way in this fight
By the moonlight they attack
They must capture them alive
To pledge allegiance to the gods
So that they can survive
Obsidian and brimstone will prevail this night
Lords of xibalba have mercy, let my people live
Hun hunahpu, be generous! Let the harvest grow
My blood implores the gods to answer our request
Life runs from my tongue, how long can I endure?
Now I hear them call, the evening star can' t lie
And their kingdom falls like the head of their king
Once again now the great darkness will appear
And all of us must go to war
Hear the gods call for flesh and for revenge
For our land demands new blood, it has run dry
Bring me my enemies, they must die for our salvation
Their hearts will burn down in our fire
Their fate is sealed and they will fall into damnation
The stars guide our way in this fight
Beneath the leafs of this forrest we're fighting
My ancestors, lend me your power
There' s no way out because our holy land is dying
A kingdom burnt down, after all
Fallen nation build on fire and blood
Mystery in a veil of green
Fallen nation, tales been carved into stone
History repeats itself
