The continent of Atlantis was an island,
which lay before the great
flood
in the area we now call
the Atlantic ocean...
So great an area of land
that from her western shores
those beautiful sailors
journeyed to the South and the North America with ease,
in their ships with painted
sails.
To the east Africa was her
neighbor,
across a short strait of
sea miles.
The great Egyptian age is
but a remnant of the Atlantic culture…
the antediluvian kings
colonized the world;
all the gods who play in
the mythological dramas in all legends
from all lands were from
fair Atlantis
Knowing her fate, Atlantis
send out ships to all corners of the earth…
On board were the twelve;
the poet, the physician,
the farmer, the scientist, the magician,
and the other so called
gods of our legends.
Though Gods they were, and
as the elders out of our time
choose to remain blind
let us rejoice
and let us sing and dance
and ring in the new.
Hail Atlantis!
Way down below the ocean
where I wanna be, she may be...
Way down below the ocean
where I wanna be, she may be...
Way down below the ocean
where I wanna be, she may be...
Way down below the ocean
where I wanna be, she may be...
