In the year 301 AD, the State of Armenia

Adopted Christianity as its official religion

Born from the existing Armenian faith its birth was painful

And triggered battles with its neighbors throughout the centuries

But there is a growing ethnic movement, based on ancient beliefs

Heathenism comes from a time of dragon slayers and sun Gods

Who's names were invoked to raise the Armenian spirit after the genocide of 1915

Those who follow this faith, are the PAGANS

Forgive ourselves, the sins of our fathers

Forgive our souls, the sins that we own

Forgive ourselves, the sins of our fathers

Forgive our souls, Oh

After all the war did we find a better place

Did we find a better sod, or find a better faith

Is there hope for the future, can we say we battled well

Did we give our children Heaven, or Hell

Forgive ourselves, the sins of our fathers

Forgive our souls, oh the sins that we own

Forgive ourselves, the sins of our fathers

Forgive our souls, oh oh oh

Mother hear our prayer, for the children

Keep them close to your heart

Forgive ourselves, the sins of our fathers

Forgive our souls, the sins that we own

Forgive ourselves, the sins of our fathers

Forgive our souls, Oh

We stand here in the future looking back into the past

We survived as a nation, we stand proud strong and fast

We can't change where we came from, or the sins upon our backs

But the scars tell the story, and the story travels fast
