The Cicadas – Dead Can Dance Lyrics
Men possessed dance and sing
Never stopping to eat or drink
In their ekstatik state of mind
Danced and sang into the endless night
The muses watched and spurred them on
To go on dancing and singing their songs
Until death's shadow passed them by
Bearing them up into the night sky
The muses saddened by what they'd done
Buried the men deep in the ground
To be resurrected in insect form
And so from the еarth cicadas are born
From the deep they еmerge as one
To climb trees and shed their skins
With new winged voices they sing to the sun
To worship apollo… The shining one
And when their time finally comes
To the nine muses they must testify
To the names and deeds of mankind
To those who honoured the muses
With the beauty of their minds
