Ächtung, Baby! - Rome, Alan Averill

We worship not some flashes

That never shone bright

We worship not the ashes

Of what once burned alight

We preserve the fire

We protect the flame

Our gods eternal

Go by different names

The birds have the eagle

Beasts have the lion

And I shall be kneeling

Before that king of mine

The birds have the eagle

Beasts have the lion

And I shall be kneeling

Before that king of mine

We worship not some flashes

That never shone bright

We worship not the ashes

Of what once burned alight

We preserve the fire

We protect the flame

Our gods eternal

Go by different names

The birds have the eagle

Beasts have the lion

And I shall be kneeling

Before that king of mine

The birds have the eagle

Beasts have the lion

And I shall be kneeling

Before that king of mine

Always

Always

The birds have the eagle

Beasts have the lion

And I shall be kneeling

Before that king of mine

The birds have the eagle

Beasts have the lion

And I shall be kneeling

Before that king of mine

Always

Always (Always)

Always

Always (Always)
