Carthage

Light and darkness
Dance with flames
Fortune and fate driven
By the clash of iron
It’s time for new gods
Coming from the west

Oh, carthage

This night will not open the day
The gates of time are closed for you

It’s not a time
For ivory
Nor a time for iberia’s silver
In the breeze
Your purple robes
Do not flutter

The waves move against you
This world is falling down

Take me down silent paths
Where the trees sway in the wind
Over the sea, over the clouds
Like a lonely bird

Take me down silent paths
Where the trees sway in the wind
Over the sea, over the clouds
Like a lonely bird

This world is falling down
This world will burn forever

No more amber
No more roses and jasmine
No more illusions
It’s not a time for dreams
No time for vanity or lovers

Oh, carthage

No one hears your cry
Look at the stars how small they are

It’s not a time
For ivory
Nor a time for iberia’s silver
In the breeze
Your purple robes
Do not flutter

The waves move against you
This world is falling down

Take me down silent paths
Where the trees sway in the wind
Over the sea, over the clouds
Like a lonely bird

Take me down silent paths
Where the trees sway in the wind
Over the sea, over the clouds
Like a lonely bird
