Behold, a world made one, a flame illuminates the sky.
Gathered around the symbol of the trident, Death defied.
With gifts of blood and tears. Splendor in submission
With bones our temple is built. The bones of the slaughtered.
The secret of our race's strength lies in the blood, the sin of our father.
A victor's crown glows red, underneath the shadow of the trident.
Take your son, your only son, whom you love
And go to the land of Moriyah
With gifts of blood and tears. Splendor in submission
With bones our temple is built. The bones of the slaughtered son.
The son spoke: « My father, I see the fire and the wood, but where is the lamb for the burnt offering?»
Here is my covenant with you
I have made you the father of many nations.
Take your son, your only son, whom you love
And go to the land of Moriyah
Kill the lamb, raise a holy fire
Kill the lamb, Offer your Lord this holocaust
With gifts of blood and tears. With bones our temple is built.
