Ghosts of Sahara - Astralion

My eyes are burned by the heat of the sun

The world is spinning around and around

I let go and close my eyes

Then it reach my ears

The fading sound of guns

There by the temple at the desert’s edge

Endless lines of dying men, now

Allegiance to the land

They swore and pledged

God will grant them paradise again

And the moon and stars

Light up the Nile

Waking the ghosts of Sahara

To fulfil their quest

They cannot rest

Until fire will reign in the whole Africa

A cobra’s kiss so deadly and fast

The world explodes in a shower of suns

The moon is down, I’m all alone

Fading away

Got no future, got no past

And there was music in the earth and sky

Rumbling drums and screaming madness

This magic carpet wasn’t meant to fly

But to devastate the paradise of man

And the moon and stars

Light up the Nile

Waking the ghosts of Sahara

To fulfil their quest

They cannot rest

Until fire will reign in the whole Africa
