Lyrics
Aži Dahāka
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.
Two snakes from his shoulders
Springing black through night
And their shadows lengthen
Sweeping past his eyes
Born a failed creation
Outcast down below –
Time his only witness –
Light the lunar torch!
Down where fate abandoned you
In grief alone
Chained you are before the wall
Of mountain and of stone
(Underneath Mount Damāvand)
The Draconic vulcan
Ashes black of life
Shall erupt in triumph
Covering the sky
(Tied to nails of a thousand years)
End of days arriving –
Empty are his chains
Horns of war are sounding –
May he reign again!
Down where fate abandoned you
In grief alone
Chained you are before the wall
Of mountain and of stone
Hear –
Hear and rise once more!
