Kimaera - De Amare et Bellum

We have crossed the vast lands and sea
Both the general and the lover in me
Turned away from glory's ray
Drunk at your feet, my sword I lay
All for thee, temptress and vile
Oh you Divine queen of the Nile
For ages to come this tale shall shine
Egypt and Rome forever entwined

Bearing their eagle high
Legions fought the battle of Activm
Galleys wrecked, blood been shed
Scattered at the shore, Osiris and Isis have bled

We have come this far
But the tides have turned
The Gods have forsaken us
Into the pit of despair
My head is bowed
Misfortune I shall bare
Embraced with wine and gold
With a serpent's bite
Let my fate unfold
I am so shamed and hollow
My hordes are lost
My wretched heart shall follow
Bearing their eagle high
Legions fought the battle of Activm
Galleys wrecked, blood been shed
Scattered at the shore, Osiris and Isis have bled

This epic tale of love and war
And all the tragedies we bore
Shall be carved with blood in stone
Your legacy as eternal as my own
All for thee, temptress and vile
Oh you Divine queen of the Nile
For ages to come this tale shall shine
EGYPT and ROME forever entwined
