To Dream Of Ur Lyrics - Nile

Desolate and Forsaken,Eerily Moaning Dark Winds 

Murmur Incantations,Dusk Calls Forth Shadows 

Spirits of the Glorious Dead Lingering,Bound to this Place 

They Whisper of Untold Sagas,of Long Dead Cities 

the Seven Shining Cities Sacred to the Aphkhallu 

of Ages Past when the World was Young 

When Babylon was Blessed of Marduk 

and the Sound of her Armies was the Blare of Ominous War Horns 

and the Clash of Immortal Cymbals 

of Bronze Gates Arrayed in Splendour 

and Magnificent Walls of Sunbaked Brick of Temples of Marble 

and Bloodstained Altars,Long Before the Jeweled Throne of Ur 

Fell Silent and Turned to Dust 

Beneath the Endless Shifting Sands 

and the Inevitable Vengeance of the Elements
