lyrics

The world's awake
The stars are quivering in the sky
The mountains shake
An echo's coming from the dawn of time
Gliding away
With tortuous windings, round and round
A yellow flame
Keeps watch when stars are falling down

CHORUS
The nebulous star in the Dragon's eye
Circles round the golden fruits of the North
He holds the axis of the world in his folds
The Old Serpent wakes

Alghavil Altannin
Cast a comet to the earth
Alghavil Altannin

He rears his head over Heaven
He distils poison all over the world
Immense and slow as he wanders
(The) eternal vigil in the cosmic river

CHORUS

I'm the one who is to be destroyed
Altannin, united with the void
The Dragon dreams - Drama of Creation
Hear my scream - Silent revelation

Way up on high is the one who's been slain
Slain a thousand times yet immortal in the sky
Devouring the stars, a dark omen when the moon cries

Drink of his waters and you'll face
Consciousness in his embrace
Denying you all rest
See with a new lucidity
Senses brought to ecstasy
(A) glimpse of reality
