Nox Arcana - Children of Heaven текст песни

She stands guard at heaven's gate
Her sword held high
In armour gold and ornate
Shining wings spread wide

Unmoved by sorrow or hate
She serves the throne
She's never questioned her fate
But she stands alone

Ave, Ave Sephiriel
Liberae, liberae Sephiriel

Fierce angel, she fights for the light
She serves her Lord
Immortal, gifted with flight
Yet she yearns for more

She's fought hard for Justice and Right
In heaven above
Yet she'd trade it all for a day and a night
With her one true love

[Narrator:]
And so it came to pass
That the children of men bore
Beautiful sons and daughters
And the angels, children of heaven,
Looked down upon them
And found them fair.
And they said let us take lovers
From the children of men
And beget our own children.
And so the watcher angels,
Beautiful sons and daughters of heaven,
Fell to the earth.

Ave, Ave Sephiriel
Liberae, liberae Sephiriel

In heaven naught can compare
To passion's fire
But the angels, servants of God
Are forbidden to desire

When she saw him she knew she must fall
Or forever yearn,
For one kiss she'd sacrifice all
Leaving heaven, ne'er to return

Ave, Ave Sephiriel
Liberae, liberae Sephiriel

Oh blessed Father, is love a sin?
Can you deny us all?
On gold wings spread to the wind
She let away to fall

I've never questioned my fate or my place
In the grander scheme
But now that I've fallen from grace
I am finally free

Ave, Ave Sephiriel
Liberae, liberae Sephiriel
