[00:48.260] |
She stands guard at heaven's gate, |
[00:52.130] |
Her sword held high. |
[00:56.250] |
In armour gold and ornate, |
[01:00.210] |
Shining wings spread wide. |
[01:04.460] |
Unmoved by sorrow or hate, |
[01:08.200] |
She serves the throne. |
[01:12.110] |
She's never questioned her fate, |
[01:16.250] |
But she stands alone. |
[01:20.540] |
|
[01:20.680] |
Ave, Ave, Sephiriel. |
[01:28.640] |
Liberae, liberae, Sephiriel. |
[01:36.090] |
|
[01:36.480] |
Fierce angel, she fights for the light, |
[01:40.190] |
She serves her Lord. |
[01:44.320] |
Immortal gifted with flight, |
[01:48.230] |
Yet she yearns for more. |
[01:52.290] |
She's fought hard for Justice and Right, |
[01:56.110] |
In heaven above. |
[02:00.200] |
Yet she'd trade it all for a day and a night, |
[02:04.010] |
With her one true love. |
[02:10.170] |
|
[02:11.290] |
And so it came to pass that the children of men bore beautiful sons and daughters, |
[02:18.440] |
and the angels, children of heaven, looked down upon them and found them fair. |
[02:25.330] |
And they said let us take lovers from the children of men and beget our own children. |
[02:32.890] |
And so the watcher angels, beautiful sons and daughters of heaven, fell to the earth. |
[02:42.600] |
|
[03:12.810] |
Ave, Ave, Sephiriel. |
[03:20.710] |
Liberae, liberae, Sephiriel. |
[03:28.470] |
|
[03:28.480] |
In heaven naught can compare, |
[03:32.200] |
To passion's fire. |
[03:36.220] |
But the angels, servants of God, |
[03:40.130] |
Are forbidden to desire. |
[03:44.170] |
When she saw him she knew she must fall, |
[03:48.310] |
Or forever yearn; |
[03:52.230] |
For one kiss she'd sacrifice all, |
[03:56.220] |
Leaving heaven, ne'er to return. |
[04:00.720] |
|
[04:00.730] |
Ave, Ave, Sephiriel. |
[04:08.710] |
Liberae, liberae, Sephiriel. |
[04:16.440] |
|
[04:16.450] |
Oh blessed Father, Is love a sin? |
[04:20.090] |
Can you deny us all? |
[04:24.250] |
On gold wings spread to the wind, |
[04:28.030] |
She lept away to fall. |
[04:32.130] |
I've never questioned my fate or my place, |
[04:35.950] |
In the grander scheme. |
[04:40.030] |
But now that I've fallen from grace, |
[04:44.310] |
I am finally free. |
[04:48.710] |
|
[04:48.720] |
Ave, Ave, Sephiriel. |
[04:56.780] |
Liberae, liberae, Sephiriel. |
[05:06.240] |
