Lyrics

In the beginning Chaos filled the world... After a while the Mother of all life awakens

She creates children from this world of Chaos... They are the Genesis... They were Gods we call Muse

The Eldest God[Ῥυθμός] and the Youngest Goddess[Ἁρμονία]
conceived the God of Morning[Ἑώς] and the Goddess of Night[Νύξ]
The Second Eldest God[Μέλος] and the Youngest Goddess[Ἁρμονία]
conceived the Sun God[Ήλιος] and the Moon Goddess[Φεγγάρι]
The God of Morning[Ἑώς] and the Goddess of Night[Νύξ]
conceives the relatives of the Goddess of Earth[Γῆ]
The Sun God[Ήλιος] and the Moon Goddess[Φεγγάρι]
conceives the relatives of the Ocean Goddess[Θάλασσα]

The Mother herself conceives Twin Gods of Sky[Οὐρανός]
and finally conceives [Those Destined To Die][θάνατοι], which are humans[is Ἕλληνες]

Chronos[Χρόνος], the vertical bearer of time... Bios[Βίος], the horizontal flame of life[time]
The Weaver of the Universe uses both strings... If this is the reason we call it Destiny...
O Goddess... what kind of world wilt thou weave?

The 6th horizon
Moira

Genesis[γένεσις] has begun to be played An era when Mythos[μῦθος] flourished
Who are the tellers? (We are the tellers) -- Who are the singers? (We are the singers) -- the Goddesses of poetry[Ἁρμονίας]
