Alma Mater Lyrics - Singles - Butterfly Temple

Originally performed by Moonspell 

Mother Tongue speaks to Me 

In the strangest way I've ever seen 

I know that she sees in Me 

Her proudest child, her purest breed 

She speaks to Me in colour 

That I can't really understand 

I only know that they are ours 

And to those I'll proudly bend 

For I am your only child 

And you my desert mystery 

From an ancient throne I defy the world 

To kneel before the Power within 

For I am your only child 

And you my desert mystery 

World can't you see it? 

Am I alone in my belief? 

Virando costas ao Mundo 

Orgulhosamente sos 

Gloria Antiga, volta a nos! 

ALMA MATER! 

Breaking waves announce my bride 

It is the only way the Sea could sing 

Legends of Lusitanian pride 

He sings the words I can not spring 

At the Moon Mountain six wolves cry 

Your lost glory we'll regain or die 

For I am your only child 

And you my desert mystery 

Pagan Gods in conspiracy 

For the sword of Tyranny 

Mother Tongue speaks to Me 

In the strangest way I've ever seen 

World can't you see? 

Am I alone in my belief? 

ALMA MATER! 

Virando costas ao Mundo 

Orgulhosamente sos 

Gloria Antiga, volta a nos! 

ALMA MATER!
