Текст песни: Golden Rays of the Sun + перевод

It sacrifices an unsullied existence on the altar of progress

Paving a road to the future on paths of enlightenment

Forcing river and stream into submission

Turning plains into roads hardened by sweat and stone

Enslaving beast for its own aggrandizement

Using it to lighten its own burden

It creates beauty from bricks and wood

Turning mere rocks into castles

Creating majestic towers that reach ever higher

Piercing the solemn skies of the crescent moon

It frees trees from the forest

Using them as fuel for the new world

It leaves the empires of old in ruins

Annihilating all it comes across in its wake

Demolishing mountains to expand its reach

And then leaves but scraps when done

But still the golden rays of the sun shine upon the world

Basking all of existence in a glorious light

And still rain falls down from heavens of grey

Corroding all that was built so arduously

Until eventually a sliver of green emerges amongst the soil

Slowly growing and slowly flourishing

And then another sliver emerges

And soon the world will be born anew
