The Gods Love Nubia Lyrics - Aida

Aida: 

Take me in my dreams recurring 

Cheerful as a childhood dance 

Into one more taste of freedom 

One more longing backward glance 

In the sway of somber music 

I shall never, never understand 

Let me slip into the sweeter 

Chorus of that other land 

The gods love Nubia, the beautiful, the golden 

The radiant, the fertile, the gentle and the blessed 

The pain of Nubia is only for the moment 

the desolate the suffering 

the plundered, the opressed

Nehebka: 

The gods love Nubia, their glorious creation 

Its songs roll sweetly across the harvest plain 

Nehebka & Aida: 

The tears of Nubia, a passing aberration 

They wash into the river and are never cried again 

Nehebka, Aida, Mereb, and Nubian Woman: 

The gods love Nubia, we have to keep believing 

The scattered and divided, we are still it's heart 

Aida: 

The fall of Nubia, ephemeral and fleeting 

The spirit always burning though the flesh is torn apart. 

All: 

The fall of Nubia 

Ephemeral and fleeting 

The spirit always burning 

Though the flesh is torn apart

Aida: 

Apart 

All: 

Take me in my dreams recurring
