Aida movie - The Gods Love Nubia lyrics
rate me<br>
Aida: <br>
Take me in my dreams recurring <br>
Cheerful as a childhood dance <br>
Into one more taste of freedom <br>
One more longing backward glance <br>
<br>
In the sway of somber music <br>
I shall never, never understand <br>
Let me slip into the sweeter <br>
Chorus of that other land <br>
<br>
The gods love Nubia, the beautiful, the golden <br>
The radiant, the fertile, the gentle and the blessed <br>
<br>
The pain of Nubia is only for the moment <br>
the desolate the suffering <br>
the plundered, the opressed <br>
<br>
Nehebka: <br>
The gods love Nubia, their glorious creation <br>
Its songs roll sweetly across the harvest plain <br>
<br>
Nehebka & Aida: <br>
The tears of Nubia, a passing aberration <br>
They wash into the river and are never cried again <br>
<br>
Nehebka, Aida, Mereb, and Nubian Woman: <br>
The gods love Nubia, we have to keep believing <br>
The scattered and divided, we are still it's heart <br>
<br>
Aida: <br>
The fall of Nubia, ephemeral and fleeting <br>
The spirit always burning though the flesh is torn apart. <br>
<br>
All: <br>
The fall of Nubia <br>
Ephemeral and fleeting <br>
The spirit always burning <br>
Though the flesh is torn apart <br>
<br>
Take me in my dreams recurring <br>
Cheerful as a childhood dance <br>
Into one more taste of freedom <br>
One more longing backward glance <br>
The gods love Nubia, the beautiful, the golden <br>
The radiant, the fertile, the gentle and the blessed <br>
The pain of Nubia is only for the moment <br>
the desolate the suffering <br>
the plundered, the opressed <br>
<br>
The gods love Nubia <br>
we have to keep believing <br>
Though scattered and divided we are still it's heart <br>
The fall of Nubia ephemeral and fleeting the spirit always <br>
Burning though the flesh is torn apart <br>
The spirit always burning though the flesh is torn apart <br>
<br>
Aida: <br>
Apart <br>
<br>
All: <br>
Take me in my dreams recurring <br>
One more longing backward glance <br>
<br>
