KARTIKEYA LYRICS

1. Dharma Pt. 1

2. Tandava

3. Durga Puja

As a flower's stem rips its way through the soil
And a neonate takes a breath,
The earth was born as a child to the mother of all
From the universal force, eternal and infinite

As life flows and the bliss erodes, the will to be
Gains strength in a growing soul
For us to see the beauty of a perfectly carved stone
Durga Maa, preserve thy seed, for the seed has grown!

Om Dum Durgayei Namaha
Slayer of the ignorant
Om Dum Durgayei Namaha
Face the one who is deceived
Om Aing Hring Kleeng
Om Dum Durgayei Namaha
Chamundaye Vichchey Om
She who holds the divine smile
Om Aing Hring Kleeng
Om Dum Durgayei Namaha
Chamundaye Vichchey Om

As petals fall and leaves dry out,
Eyes turn white, becoming a mirror inside,
Which pictures the cosmic cycle free of sin..
Durga Maa, erase the seed, may new life begin!

Om Dum Durgayei Namaha
Slayer of the ignorant
Om Dum Durgayei Namaha
Face the forever naive
Om Aing Hring Kleeng
Om Dum Durgayei Namaha
Chamundaye Vichchey Om
She who holds the divine smile
Om Aing Hring Kleeng
Om Dum Durgayei Namaha
Chamundaye Vichchey Om
Cast your light on the world

Ananta, Sarvavidya, Sundari, Devamata
The power of all, the power beyond the world -
Durga Maa, mother of the universe

Om Dum Durgayei Namaha
Slayer of the ignorant
Om Dum Durgayei Namaha
Gift the one who believes
Om Aing Hring Kleeng
Om Dum Durgayei Namaha
Chamundaye Vichchey Om
She who holds the divine smile
Om Aing Hring Kleeng
Om Dum Durgayei Namaha
Chamundaye Vichchey Om

4. Pranama

5. The Horrors Of Home

It reached out its claws
To crush the tender stem of life,
To puncture the lung of faith,
Leave it to choke to death.
Quenching its thirst with tears
Of children as they cry,
Begging mothers to breathe...

As a traitor you are sentenced to live your life in fear
And face death with a sudden dagger in your back!
As a traitor you are sentenced to fall from the throne
As you left endless veins without serum...

For you have betrayed the divine!
You have betrayed your kin!
But they shall suffer no more!

The horrors of home
Feel the weakness of your soul,
The horrors of home -
So unforgiving...
The horrors are not alone
In their sacrificing role.
The horrors of home...

The curse is forming roads
That promise no return,
Leaving no time to think
And look behind.
Bleeding your way
To end the terror from inside?
Bodies shall pave the trail...

As a traitor you shall be denied by every single being
Which bares the spark of mind in its eyes!
As a traitor you shall never survive the billion arrows you shot
As they turn back upon you and strike!

For you have betrayed the divine!
You have betrayed your kin!
But they shall suffer no more,
Your horrors freed them from sin...

The horrors of home
Feel the weakness of your soul,
The horrors of home -
So unforgiving...
The horrors are not alone
In their sacrificing role.
The horrors of home...

6. Mask Of The Blind

7. Samudra

8. The Golden Blades

See the waters divide
As we rise from below
See the sparks in our eyes
As the sun guides our will to grow

See the vortex
Churning the ocean
Raising waves to the sky
See the fire
Burning all demons
Gracefully muting their cry

Gather, gather
Warriors of light
We stand united
And ready to fight
Let the sacred virya
Prosper within
Cleansing our souls from sin
Gather, gather
Sons of the gods
Never surrender
Against all the odds
We are born to bring down
Thousands of gates
We are the golden blades!

Feel the presence, divine
As our blades turn to gold
Pave the way of the prime
As we gather to face the world

Hear the horns of
A holy parade,
The victorious call
Hear the voice of
The devas upon you
Blessing to conquer all

Gather, gather
Warriors of light
We stand united
And ready to fight
Let the sacred virya
Prosper within
Cleansing our souls from sin
Gather, gather
Sons of the gods
Never surrender
Against all the odds
We are born to bring down
Thousands of gates
We are the golden blades!

9. We Shall Never Die

10. Kannada

11. Tunnels Of Naraka

Dive inside
The serpent's wide open gorge
As the monstrous jaws
Collide behind your back
The endless hands of those
Devoured before
Plough your skin
In a gruesome attack

Hold your scream
Before the deaf and blind
As waters rip your soul
And merge it again
The vile cursed air
Holds your desperate cry
As the serpent
Paves the way to its den

O, lord of ghouls,
Cursed is thy world!
Breathe sweet revenge,
He who dwells in the
Deep dark grounds

Fall inside
The boiling cauldrons of blood
As the bone-waiting dogs
Humbly stare at the flames
All the lost souls
Being strangled at once
Sing an unending dirge
Over themselves

Souls:
I, once murderous
Now am banished and raped
In the depths of the worlds
I, once murderous
Now am drowning in slime
In the deep dark tunnels

12. The Crimson Age

13. Kumari Kandam
