The Gates Of Babylon |
Awakening a goddess in the dark |
On a stake she’s been hanging like a doll |
Tried to reach for the underworld |
Had to pass through the seven gates of hell |
Naked, lost, and deprived of all |
All the power that she had lost |
Dear ancient god, reveal your home |
At the gates of Babylon |
Dear ancient one, I see your home |
At the gates of Babylon |
Sent by Lord Enki to find, the goddess Ishtar, and bring her back to life |
The tale of death and rebirth will become |
The walls of kings and the goddess that she was |
Naked, lost and deprived of all |
All the power that she had lost |
Dear ancient god, reveal your home |
At the gates of Babylon |
Dear ancient one, I see your home |
At the gates of Babylon |
(Ishtar to Erishkigal) |
Dear sister what have I done to deserve thy anger? |
I passed through the seven gates, now all I had is yours |
The underworld that you rule, I became a victim of |
The messenger from another time has brought me home |
Dear ancient god, reveal your home |
At the gates of Babylon |
Dear ancient one, I see your home |
At the gates of Babylon |
Dear ancient God release your soul |
At the gates of Babylon |
Dear ancient one, I see your home |
At the gates of Babylon |
At the gates of Babylon |
At the gates of Babylon |
