Across the sea we are searching
The distant soar of a land
Where the sun meets the sand
A forgotten kingdom with secrets waiting
Waiting to shine again under the sun
In a time lost inside the ages
An empire is rising
Gold as the flames of the sun
Black was the dawn
Black desert storm
In a time when magic was real
And prophets walked across the land
She was the diamond of the desert
The Atlantis of the sands
Black was the dawn
Black desert storm
Before the night the god's were descended
Before your jewels turn into black
Your light shined bright in the darkness
Through the door, at the gates of Iram
A city made by gold and marbles
With giants walking among mortal men
See the wonders, feel the magic
Before the end glowing one last time
Black was the dawn
Black desert storm
So great was indeed your kingdom
But that grace
Will soon be scattered in the wind
Remember all her riches and her glory
Cause it shall never be again
Before the night the god's were descended
Before your jewels turn into black
Your light shined bright in the darkness
Through the door, at the gates of Iram
