RECITATIV:
C The continent of Atlantis was an island
D Which lay before the great flood
In the F area we now call the Atlantic Ocean.
C So great an area of land, that from G her western
C shores, those beautiful sailors journeyed
to the D South and the North America with ease,
in their F ships with painted sails. C
G To the east C Africa was a neighbor across
D a short strait of sea miles.
F The great Egyptian age is but a
remn C ant of the Atla G ntian culture.
C The antedeluvian Kings colonised the world;
D All the Gods who play a part in the
F mythological dramas in all legends
from all la C nds were from fair Atlantis. G
C Knowing her fate, Altantis sent out ships
to all corners D of the earth.
D On board were the twelve, the poet,
F the physician, the farmer, the scientist,
the magi C cian, and the other
so called G Gods of our legends.
C Tho' Gods they were! And as the elders
of our D time choose to remain blind,
D let us rejoice and let us
F sing and dance and ring in the new. C
Hail Atlantis G !
ZPIEV:
C Way down below the D ocean
F where I wanna be C
she may G be
(Opakovat a do ztracena od 'Way down...')
