-The First of Carthage- (V0) [EPICS]

[Instrumental intro] [Verse 1] Meet the one they call Dido His garb of white and gold An iron will with gentle gaze But with effeminate clothes Dido the First of Carthage He built the walls from bone From blood of lambs and honeycombs He forged the Punic throne [Short Break] [Verse 2] With shining blue and silken robes His subjects weep in fear To hear him speak his many names The tongue of noble queers His chariot is drawn by steeds With three heads each like him With each one clothed in feminine form With strength and noble limbs [Short Break] [Verse 3] The first of these is Ganymede A youth of Ashtart's own The golden goblet-bearer of the Gods He leads the way The second's Dionysus With golden grapes and rose He rides behind with voice like iron And horn of goats [Short Break] [Verse 4] The third is Aeneas In brass armor he roams To purge his native land of fire And take a Grecian throne They cross the sea of Hercules To Latium they go To take the gifts of Carthage To bring his stolen sons back home [Short Break] [Verse 5] Dido had built a horse For use upon the shore And in it hides Aeneas With ten thousand trojan whores But one of these is the son of Rome By two great wolves conceived And he and his sister are loved by Mars And loved by Greeks [Short Break] [Verse 6] And in the dark They shall give birth To one of their three kin They will bear forth a sacred beast With seven heads and iron limbs Aeneas will ride this horse To purge his native home And Dido will build him a city Where Rome's sons shall make their throne [Instrumental outro]
