1. EMERALDINE

(Instrumental)


2. TRISMEGISTUS

“Pausing now and then
Between gods and men,
With supreme delight,
Lift men to their height.

By the Nile I see him wandering,
On the mystic union pondering
Half believing, wholly feeling,
How the gods, themselves concealing.”
Longfellow, H.W.

Theos makes Aeon, Aeon makes Kosmos
Kosmos makes Chronos, Chronos makes Genesis
Aeon is in Theos, Kosmos in Aeon
Chronos in Kosmos, Genesis in Chronos

Arcane, thy father is the Sun
Thy mother is the Moon
Thy strength, it comes down from the Earth
And the wind carries her in its womb

To Dare and to Want,
To Know and Conceal,
“All of those Secrets,
You promised me…reveal!!!”

Autumn, Winter, Spring and Summer
In Camelot Castle we’ll go Further
One is God, Two is Reflection
Three - Multiply, Four is Progression

South, West, East and North
In Salomon’s Temple we’ll go Forth
Fire, Water, Air and Earth
Where’s the fifth for a perfect Birth?

Arcane, thy father is the Sun
Thy mother is the Moon
Thy strength, it comes down from the Earth
And the wind carries her

Answer me: the name of god thou knows?
“It is the same for us”
Thy fame, it comes after your name
“Is Trismegistus!”

Theos is Agathos, Aeon is Identity
Kosmos is Order, Chronos is Changes
Genesis is Life, Genesis is Death as well
The myth and the legend, in our life they shall dwell

Arcane, thy father is the Sun
Thy mother is the Moon
Thy strength, it comes down from the Earth
And the wind carries her in its womb

Answer me: the name of god thou knows?
“It is the same in Ages”
Thy fame, it comes after your name
“Is Trismegistus! The thrice greatest”


3. D'ARC (THE UNBURNED HEART)

In the Eastern France
Near Burgundian lands
Lived our last chance

Simple and peasant maid
God’s hand of fate
A heart without a shade

Visions of saints,
Angels and noble men
Showed her the way:
“Bring the Dauphin to Reims”

Heard the divine
And followed the sign
To stop the war
To draw the line

There, can you see or believe?
She, who brings hope and relief
Stands with her flag claiming peace,
She is the maid of Orléans

On guard she stays

The uncrowned king
Sent Joan to the siege
In a city that bleeds

Our homeland
Maybe could withstand
Until the end

Fear and pain
No longer will reign
With her blessed hands
We’ll break out the chains

With passion and faith
She fought and she prayed
In only nine days
She had wiped them away

Stands with her flag claiming peace,
She is the maid of Orléans

Here, all the sons of war
Will be forever the heirs of peace,
And I know you’ll stay by my side, Lord
Wherever I go, whenever I need

Onward she goes, to her own fate

“Et Jeanne, la bonne Lorraine
Qu'Anglais brûlèrent à Rouen;
Où sont-ils, où, Vierge souvraine?
Mais où sont les neiges d'antan?”

[Pre-Chorus]

[Chorus]

Unburned heart stills to beat
Neither fire burns so deep
Now she rests in peace


4. LOBO-GUARA

Here, where loneliness sings
And here, alone we stand
Once we were the kings
They’d seen across these lands

Poetry of rain
We hear a storming night
“Won’t you feel the winter and wind?”
Before all wolves hide
We’ll ask you why

Your gun and your wish
In my way
I thought I could live
You thought I could die
Once I believed
Your will and your hearts
(were) by my side

Andando, em solo sagrado,
Nos sonhos teus
Em bandos, abençoados,
Sou livre, não seu
Andando, em solo sagrado,
Nos sonhos de Deus
Uivando, os cantos amargos
Agora são teus.

Here where loneliness lays
And here’s a howling sky
Under is the reign
That leads the last goodbye

Poetry of pain
We’ll hear it before we cry?
“Don’t you feel the hunter, my prey?”
If all the wolves hide
I wish you survive

[Chorus]

Your gun and your wish
In my way
I thought I could grieve
You thought I would fight
Why I believed
Your will and your hearts
(would be) by my side?

[Chorus]

Andando, em solo sagrado,
Nos sonhos de Deus
Uivando, os cantos amargos
Agora são teus.


5. SHAKESPEARE'S SECRET GARDEN

Welcome to my memories
Soiled in a child’s dream,
Somewhere in my fantasies
A secret place for you to see

Illusions from the faeries
A gift or a silent scream,
Someway in my memories,
A perfect space for us to live

Awake, but awake in my dreams,
With the Moon in the loom
Of make-believe,
So, take me to my wish and see
The empire where he,
Shakespeare lives

I’m dreaming, but, dreaming awake
By the rules of a world made of sand,
So, leave me in the path I’ve to make
To the dwelling where he,
Shakespeare stands

Come cover our eyes
With shade and with delight
Create these miracles
And all this place which I stand

“Stand by me, I’ll stand by you
On your dreams”

For you to fall in love,
The Fiddler gets to choose

The price for him to pay
Was only to write two plays,
The first for the “Summer Nights”
But the second it’s gone, gone away

Farewell, oh, my secret garden
You’re deep within my heart,
Farewell, oh, my secret garden
I’ve missed you since the start

All over our sight
Blue veil of the night
Create delirium
And all this place which I stand

“Stand by me, I’ll stand by you
On your dreams”

And if you fall in love
To fall in love, they will do

Close your eyes and wait to fall asleep
From my heart now will come
A secret so lonely and deep,

Just close your eyes, my friend,
And wait for your rebirth
In this place made by William
For the Dreamers of the Earth


6. STAR OF SOPHIA

To find my own way
Through the trails of life
Was not easy

All the moments of pain
All the moments of lies
Hidden inside of me

I just can’t explain
To my empty heart
What I’m feeling
Maybe I’m dreaming

Stars are coming down
They’re waiting for you
For us to bound
They pray for a plan,
A glance, a second chance
Star

As time passes by
All the steps behind
Seems uneasy

For the daughter that waits
For the sister that cries
Praying for life

And I still can’t explain
To this empty heart
What I’m feeling
Am I still dreaming?

Stars are coming down
They’re waiting for you
For us to bound
They pray for a plan,
A glance, a second chance
Star

Don’t you know?
Your tears were never alone
Soon you’ll come home
Star

Did you ever felt so alone, all alone?
And then stared at the sky?
Feeling is believing

Don’t you know?
Your tears were never alone
Soon you’ll come home

I’m longing for
The Star of Sophia


7. RIBAT DA ARRIFANA

See, all this blessed land
Touched by the sun,
Wind and ocean

Endless beauty, in our hands
Vivid peace, faith
And devotion

The power of our prayers
Cast us out of the light?

There’s no glory to slay and hate
There’s no meaning on this fight

Se por amor tua guerra santa chamou
Libero a dor e me posto contra teu clamor
Ira tenax

And the fire that burned yesterday
And all days of our lives

It will be drawn
In our souls and in our eyes

“Feel my rage, strong as faith
Smell and taste your blood
That I’ll chase”

Rosa dos ventos de um náufrago só
Se despe do tempo, se veste de pó
Monge, soldado e príncipe-mor

Angra de fé e fortaleza de paz
Refúgio ou templo, tanto faz
Na Atalaia o céu se refaz

E por amor tua guerra santa chamou
Libero a dor e me posto contra teu clamor

E por amor esta arrábida lutou
Aos seus irmãos, contra, se postou
Ira tenax


8. THE DAUGHTER OF THE OWLS

In olden times
This girl, a newborn child
Was left by owls
To be not victim
And not the crime

“Not born from men,
So, she should burn to death”
“Or be outcast,
To live lonely and only
With the dead”

And as she grows
Inside the abbey
The elder men knows
She can’t hide there

Neither wind
Or even the nightfall
Won’t stop our fury
And your body to crawl,
Praying for mercy?
There’s no one to call
And with your blood
We shall stain holy walls

Left on her own
With only skin and bones,
Owl dung with pellets
And no name, no hope

Fed by a nun
Till she was old enough
And then with sixteen
She’ll have no one
Nowhere to run

[Pre-Chorus]

[Chorus]

“It’s time for you to pray,
Men and deceiver
It’s time for all to pay,
We shall begin it!!”

[Pre-Chorus]

[Chorus]


9. DREAM AWAKE

I feel the northern pain
As the drought comes again
Will I be wasting my time if I pray?
“Lord, where’s the wetting rain?”

We’re leaving, departing
Forsaking our only home
Wandering, believing
On creed, faith and hope

And for the childhood I will never ever have
The desert of my life where my heart was left
And for the childhood I will never ever live
This desert where my road now begins

Why can’t my prayers
Now heal this sore?
While we’re waiting
We suffer even more

Holy Father, shall you keep
Crowning us with thorns?
Can’t you see my mother’s tears
A spear in my heart?

I know fire burns, I feel on my face
When night goes, with sun comes
My disgrace

No seas are left, all rivers dried
Just sand in my eyes

Over a footpath of dry leaves
We walk and we stand
Through dust and wind
“Lord, this oasis is dead”

Over the footprints and
Over the scars of this land
Barren fields and the scourge of man

[Chorus]

Oh, I dreamed that was raining
In a blue and vivid sky painting
When I wake from my mirage
I starve but I wait

Oh, when I dream always rains
Rain washing my sorrow, moistening my face
Will I wake from my mirage
And starve once again?

Morpheus, please tell me
If my prayer is in vain
How long we’ll walk
Until we get faint?

Hunger striking
Sun burning my faith
In my mother’s arms
Will I be once again?

I know fire burns, I feel on my face
I know I have to go, I know this is my fate
When night goes, with sun comes
My disgrace

No seas are left, all rivers dried
When the sand comes
There’s blood in my eyes

Without the falling of the rain
We have nowhere to go
The only place that we may rest
Is the place to rest our souls

Need to reach for the stars
So, God, please, take me that far
Above the sky my tears will fly
To wet the land and all the scars

We now dream awake


10. SOB O SOL

O coração é um vaso de barro
Cheio do vinho da vida

Sobre as nossas cabeças - o sol
Sobre as nossas cabeças - a luz
Sob as nossas mãos - a criação
Sobre tudo que mais for o coração
Luz da fé que guia os fiéis
Pelo deserto sem água e sem pão
Faz de pedras um rio brotar
Faz do céu chover forte o maná
O coração é um vaso de barro
Quebra esse vaso

Sobre as nossas cabeças - o sol
Sobre as nossas cabeças - a luz
Sob as nossas mãos - a criação
Sobre tudo que mais for o coração
Luz da fé que guia os fiéis
Pelo deserto sem água e sem pão
Faz de pedras um rio brotar
Faz do céu chover forte o maná
Quebra o vaso de barro do teu coração
Com o melhor vinho do teu amor
Pois quer a lei que ele se perca no chão
E floresça o deserto aos seus pés
Regando as areias, recriando regato
E as luzes do Éden das flores
Na terra dos homens, no circo dos anjos
Guardiões implacáveis do céu

Dançamos a dança da vida
No palco do tempo, teatro de Deus
Árvore santa dos sonhos,
Os frutos da mente são meus e são teus

Nossos segredos guardados
Enfim revelados, nus sob o sol
Segredos de Deus tão guardados
Enfim revelados, nus sob o sol
Sobre as nossas cabeças - o sol
Sobre as nossas cabeças - a luz
Sob as nossas mãos - a criação
Sobre tudo que mais for o coração

[Chorus]


11. WHAT DREAMS MAY COME?

Lying awake and covered by stars
I can imagine a kingdom not far:
My secret garden!
“Just close your eyes…
And here we are”
The land of the Arden

Mystical places and magical beings
I just can’t wait for all of those things,
In my secret garden
Miracles, Fantasies… is what
Morpheus Brings
The land of the hidden

And if I not sleep
Then I’ll maybe weep
“You, which I receive,
Will now fall asleep”

Now fly over the land
And feel the wind between your hands
Hold on the rain that looms
And feed the rivers of the Moon
I might become the night

Black crow will guide you to the gates
Will leave you on a place of a mystical race
“In thy garden, Fiddler?”
Guardians will ask you
The wisdom of ages
“The land of the riddler”

Librarian will show you the book of the sage
The world of the fables, the spell of the mage
“My secret lore”
The land of Arcadia
Revealed on this pages
Forevermore

Now fly over the land
And feel the wind between your hands
Hold on the rain that looms
And feed the rivers of the Moon

I might become the night
That lights the path of life

And if I awake
Then what will I make?
“You, which I embrace,
Won’t forget this place”

Now fly over the land
And feel the wind between your hands
Hold on the rain that looms
And feed the rivers of the Moon

Now why won’t you stand
Above the stars until the end?
And ask for me to do
To turn this dream a deja-vu

I might become the light
That shines and transcends the life
