They were born as slaves
But provoked the anger of their master
Leading humans to their graves
and the world to disaster.
The humankind's chaos
Won't cause any pathos,
But a hatred so deep.
Their perverted rites
Fill my nights
and empty my sleep.
Trees will fall
Forests will burn
Everything that crawls
will die under the sun.
Water will vanish
Dust will reign
Life will be banished,
Until nothing remains.
I will judge the profane.
I will chasten the disdain
Under an acid rain,
Purifying through pain.
The humankind has played its odds,
In the thread of contempt.
Ignoring admonitions of the gods,
Leading a life unkempt.
No matter how much they cry,
No matter how much some tries,
Soon they all will die.
When the epidemics will have stopped.
When the waters will have returned
Humankind will have been sacrificed
For a peace finally earned.
Engaged in its own pedantry,
Unable to see its vanity
The Gods have spoken
Humankind shall be broken.

And so were Enlil’s words :
Enki’s creatures shall disappear
The punishment of the Gods,
In their wrath, will be severe.
Betrayed by their own kind :
The Gods have been depraved.
The Living shall be enshrine,
For we must save what can be saved.
As the divine wrath grows
The mighty has been braved
Enki has break his oath,
For we must save what can be saved.
Here stands the Very Wise
The one who wouldn't waive,
His heart can stand no lies,
For he must save what can be saved.
From high in the skies,
Throught the reeds, waved,
And for the Wise, they advise
For he will save what can be saved.
When everyone is ignorant, you will know.
When all will die, you will live.
When the Eternal cannot see
Your dreams become weapons
To defeat the prophecy.
Pledge to the sun.

The eyes wide open,
the Wise awakes.
The dreams have spoken,
He'll do what it takes
To give up his life,
Everything he built,
To fight the strife
And let it to wilt.
The ark shall be strong,
And it shall be covered,
It shall be immeasurably long,
To board the lifes, threatened.
Life-Saver, its denomination,
sealed on its whole breadth,
To cross the Oceans,
And their scariest depths.
Seven days to prepare
Against the mighty spell.
Seven days of his own
personnal hell.
(The) work is exhausting,
(The) body reach new limits
"Conquer" the suffering
Which the fear inhibits.
Men have united
Against the gruesome fate,
But they are benighted
Of the loose floodgate
The Ark is gigantic,
(The) feast just as much,
(But) the Wise is frantic,
Tragic, as such.
He walks away,
He seals the ship,
Left his friends, betrayed,
Now bodies afloat
He walks away,
He seals the ship,
Left his friends, betrayed,
Now bodies afloat
Enki mourns
His wonders
As it starts
To pour down.
The skies
To tear apart
And the world to drown

And the Flood
appeared.
The Anathema passed
over men as a war
Torn off, the heavenly
valves.
Overflowing, the dams from
above.
Stretched out, the sky
in its dead silence.
Reduced to darkness,
all that had been luminous.
The Anunnaki gods set the world ablaze.
The waves even covered the tops of the mountains.

Lost on the endless mount Nisir,
Cradle of hope and warfare.
The desert is fullfiled with fear.
A mournful sky lined with despair.
Of those, who lost everything,
Of those, who no longer have laws,
I am withdrawing
I am the one who was.
Once, grain among the sand,
Now, alone in the wasteland,
Of those, who lost everything,
Of those, who no longer have laws,
I am withdrawing
I am the one who was
The last one left alive.
Once, grain among the sand,
A drop within its ocean.
Now, alone in the wasteland,
Peeling my former devotion.
I'm wandering, I'm ecstatic,
My visions are crawling.
As lost as I am, as erratic,
Death whispers my name, she's calling.
The sacrifice
I've consent to,
Is not worth the price
I went through.

Awîlum (L'homme Libre)

Maybe hundred of years have past,
As time goes, I don't even know anymore ...
Has time made me wiser, at last ?
There's no end, there's no solution, to what I answer for.
I thought that the pain would lessen,
That slowly, it would go away.
It didn't. No final chapter to this lesson.
In my eternal quest, there's no hope to find a way.
Damned : The gift was a curse.
My greatest strength, admired at the highest,
Is the reason of my fall, O fate, O perverse.
It takes a long time to burn the brightest.
Doomed : The gift was a curse.
Without ever drifting, the fate
Brings a life uncertain :
To bear the weight
And even more, the burden.
Obsessed with the doubt,
And the knowledge of ignorance,
From down below, I shout,
To this endless last dance.
I thought that the pain would vanish,
But slowly, it became a path to be free.
Awîlum.
