lyrics

In the bowels of India
In anticipation
We wait for our time to come
Swallow the light
Grim Kalikamata
Devour our names, our souls
Make creation undone

We're
Your mishappen children
So you order us back
Inside your timeless womb
Goddess
You were Sundara-Murti
You gave birth to the world
As you’re it’s hand of doom

Refrain:
Kalaratri Kali-Ma
Shakti Devi Kali-Ma!

Kali:
You see me here
Do you dare to face me?
Black Madonna, Empress of time
Receive my dark embracing

Before the aeons
Man dwelt in freedom
Next to each other like a million grains of sand
The male gods came
In pride and fury
To wage their wars across our peaceful land
Like lambs led to the slaughter
Your children were mercilessly slain
Where once was love and humble dignity
Now man just saw his personal gain
Maddened with rage
Your lust for fresh spilt blood did arise
Swallow your seed
In the timeless blackness of your void
We're the children of India
We wait for redemption
Spill blood in Kali's name
All that once was
Upon the ruins of carnage
Shall rise in triumph once again

Refrain

Ancient and dark (2x)
Every mind that yearns to fear
Just remember
I am here

Kali:
Repeat 2nd verse
