Heimdall - Ballad of the Queen lyrics

[Book IV – Dido and Aeneas] [STORY] Though bound by a vow to her husband Sychaeus, Dido fell in love with Aeneas. Juno got Venus to agree to their union and arranged a hunt and A storm to take them together into a cave… but Aeneas' destiny was Different. The father of the gods, Jupiter, through the words of Mercury Reminded the Trojan of his noble and sacred duty. The cold farewell words Of Aeneas, prompted by Jupiter, caused the anger of Dido who swore Vengeance. Warned by Mercury, Aeneas and his people hastily departed In their ships. Abandoned and wrapped by pain and desperation, the Carthaginian queen ascended to the pyre and took her sword, cursing him And prophesying eternal hatred and war between Carthage and the Descendants of the Trojans… Why did you find rest here on my shores? Why did your words light the flame in my heart? You enemies will be the same that have loved you till tonight Why are you fleeing taking my soul to distant suns? [Chorus:] Hear the ballad of the queen A melody of pain Hear my memories and dreams Hate – for the years to come I was so foolish to hear your words The same that now are as cold as blades Your friends will be your enemies And the sun will start to cry Hate will domain between our mates I swear it to the stars [Chorus:] Hear the ballad of the queen A melody of pain Hear my memories and dreams Hate – for the years to come Hear the ballad of the queen A melody of cry Hear my memories and dreams Damned – for the years to come The flames burns on into my heart It does go on… I must stop it Cold friend, free me under the stars And give me peace, give me peace Give me peace…
