Dead Can Dance - The Song of the Sibyl lyrics
An eternal king will come Dressed in our mortal flesh: He will come from heaven certainly To pass judgement on the century. Before judgement is passed A great sign will show itself: The sun will lose its shine The earth will tremble with fear. After will come mighty thunder A sign of great wrath: In an infernal confusion Lightning and cries will resound. A great fire will come down from heaven In a stink of sulphur And the earth will burn furiously And great terror will afflict people. After will come the terrible signal Of a great earthquake As rocks shatter And mountains collapse. Then no-one will have pieces of gold Silver or riches, And everyone will await The sentence. Death will leave them without a penny, And will crush them all: There will remain only men in tears, And sadness will cover the world. The plains and peaks will be all the same, Good and evil will reach them both, Kings, dukes, counts and barons Will have to account for their actions. And then will come impressively The Son of God omnipotent, He will judge the dead and the living, The good will go to Heaven. Children not yet born Will cry from their mother's wombs, And with the crying say: "Help us, God, omnipotent". Mother of God, pray for us, You, the Mother of sinners, May the sentence be merciful, May Paradise be open to us. You, who listen to everything, Pray God with all devotion, With all your heart and fervour, That we should be saved. |
