Of epic proportion
Was his temple of pillars
Magnificent colossal
Humbling all who entered it's sacred halls
Yet now fallen to decay and ruin
It's past grandeur
Obscured by the cruelties of time
The priests of the temple
Dead all dead
And fallen to dust
Their undying whispers of despair
Echo amongst sand strewn
Broken paving stones
Desolation desolation
The end of days
The glory of the gods
Is put out
Like a reed torch
In the water
The roof of the house of amun is fallen
Even tho gods must die
