Lyrics

INTRO - CHOIR, CHANT
Daughter of sunlight, bloom of the earth
Child of the golden fields
But fate below in silence waits
Where hidden darkness yields

FEMALE VOCAL
[FEMALE VOCAL] I walked among the flowering plains
[FEMALE VOCAL] Where spring adorned my name
[FEMALE VOCAL] The breath of life in every step
[FEMALE VOCAL] The world my gentle flame

MALE VOCAL (LOW, COMMANDING)
From depths where silent kingdoms lie
I watched the world above
No warmth had touched my shadowed throne
Until I saw forbidden love

PRE-CHORUS – BUILD
The earth shall break — the sky shall weep
When roots of fate are torn

ABDUCTION – ORCHESTRAL IMPACT
The chasm opens — thunder cries!

FEMALE VOCAL
The ground beneath me split apart
A golden chariot rose
Cold hands of shadow claimed my soul
And dragged me down below
Down through screaming stone I fell
Into the realm of endless night
Where I was taken… yet reborn
As queen of death and light

FEMALE VOCAL, GRIEF
Where is my child? The earth grows cold
No seed shall rise again
No harvest grows till she returns
Till spring awakens once again

CHORUS – FULL, TRAGIC
The world grows cold, the fields lie bare
As sorrow claims the land
For love is torn from heaven’s light
By death’s unyielding hand

MALE VOCAL
No chains I forged, no blade I raised
Yet still you fear my name
Here beside my endless throne
You shall not fade in flame
Not as captive — not as prey
But sovereign of the deep
A queen to rule what none escape
The silent realm of sleep

FEMALE VOCAL (TRANSFORMING)
Your world is ash, your crown is night
Yet still I stand, unbent
If I must wear the shadow’s veil
Then let it be… by my consent

SOFT, DARK CHOIR
Beware the fruit of crimson seed
The binding of the grave

FEMALE VOCAL
A taste of fate upon my lips
A sweetness dark and deep
If this is law, then I shall reign
Not weep… but never weep

CORONATION – LATIN + FULL ORCHESTRA
Vultus erat maestus, et metus in oculis manebat;
sed tamen regina…
sed tamen terrae dominatrix opacae…
sed tamen cum maiestate et potestate
coniunx facta regis Erebi.

FINAL CHORUS
I rise in shadow, crowned in night
Yet spring still burns in me

[MALE VOCAL (LOW, COMMANDING)] Beside me now, no stolen bride
But queen of destiny

FEMALE VOCAL & MALE VOCAL
Between the worlds the veil is torn
Two realms in balance stand
For life must fade and death must yield
To nature’s endless hand

OUTRO – QUIET, CYCLICAL
She walks in light… she reigns in dark…
The turning of the year
Above the bloom… below the throne…
The queen of death and spring is here.
