Verses (Amharic):

o bado, hulunimi negeri inijī minimi ātak’iribi.

(O time, nothing comes close to all things.)

iwik’eti melek’ek’i yalebeti befīti k’umi.

(Understanding stands at the edge of silence.)

bado yihunu ina zimi yibelu.

(Time passes, and all speak in silence.)

hulunimi negeri āk’eribalehu, gini minimi yelemi.

(I approach all things, yet nothing remains.)

Chorus (English):

Time is fading, shadows call,

In the quiet, we find it all.

Through the darkness, through the pain,

Nothing’s lost, yet nothing remains.

"You lie beneath the altar’s flame,
Mind spinning circles, whispering names.
The pentagram turns, faces south—
Taurus waits with the fallen.
Venus dims beneath the starry veil,
A restless soul trapped, too frail.
A blackened egg, it spins again,
Air to fire, the circle’s sin.

Manifest what lies below,
But shadows lie where light won’t go.
Mercury’s gaze above your bed,
Restless thoughts fill up your head.
You lie beneath the altar’s flame,
Mind spinning circles, whispering names.
The pentagram turns, faces south—
Taurus waits with the fallen.
Venus dims beneath the starry veil,
A restless soul trapped, too frail.
A blackened egg, it spins again, 

Air to fire, the circle’s sin."

I removed the vocal melodies, added more aggression and emotion.  It took so many prompts, and over 100 tracks to get it right.  I love how she takes a breath at 0.23, wow!   *Update*  Extending the song removed the "breath",  too fiddly to try and retain it.  Very impressed.  Still impressed.  Will they ever tour?  Maybe as AI holograms in 50 years from now.  Yes, I am being funny or cynical, or both.

Yet, it is a work in progress

In the meantime, enjoy.  It's a great track, all things considered.

Film clip soon.
