Sardis(Oud Tune) | |
Lesbos-Dawn | |
Lesbos-Evening | |
Aegean Sea | |
Dreams Fade | |
Port of Sybaris | |
Go down Sybaris | |
Huntress | |
Hold my gaze | |
I sailed out from Sardis just one day past | |
Ithkos Ithkos | |
Sailed to meet the dawn on Lesbos fair | |
Ithkos Ithkos | |
My merchant's task on this isle is done | |
I call soft evening forth | |
To ease up my care | |
And to ease up my care | |
Aphrodite's temple is sweet with sandarac | |
Bright torches start the night to praise her | |
Ithkos wipes his mouth and drops the wineskin | |
Salt wind fresh in my mind | |
I said salt wind fresh in my mind | |
Dark brown eyes has Ithkos | |
From Sardis newly come | |
The carmined lips of Lesbos fail to please | |
And through the noisy night | |
Just one plaintive song | |
I said just one plaintive song will match my heart | |
Match my heart | |
The beautiful Aegean sea | |
Brings out a weeping need in me | |
I can't stand by | |
Like a thief in the night | |
While that aching lovely light | |
Shines on | |
Dreams fade now, a new day rings | |
Trade pulls the galleon ever on | |
To rich Sybaris, port of our call | |
Beyond the blue Aegean | |
How sweet the sight of peopled shores | |
To a wanderer as I | |
Known from here to Lydia far | |
Pale Sybaris knows not my tread | |
I said Sybaris knows not my tread | |
And fear stalks in my heart | |
I said fear stalks in my heart | |
For reason, reason unknown | |
Gotta come right out and say it | |
Pale Sybaris I bear you great scorn | |
Gotta come right out and say it | |
Pale Sybaris I bear you great scorn | |
Talkin' 'bout your fluted pillars and your muted life | |
I need not your fluted pillars and your muted life | |
It's worse to me | |
It's worse to me | |
It's worse to me | |
Than Death's own chariot rollin' | |
It's worse to me | |
It's worse to me | |
It's worse to me | |
Than Death's own chariot rollin' | |
(repeat once) | |
Oh hold my gaze light of day | |
That my thoughts they will not stray | |
To Hippolyta | |
The vows that set her free | |
Denied me | |
It was right there in Sybaris famed | |
That I met with her who's named | |
Hippolyta | |
Oh hold my gaze bring not the sight | |
Of that awful wondrous night | |
Hippolyta | |
Far outside the city walls | |
The Huntress Dance does call | |
Hippolyta | |
And the vows that set her free | |
Denied me | |
The vows that set her free | |
Denied me | |
The vows that set her free | |
Denied me |
