Fire of ashurbanipal

I´ve followed the ancient rhyme
Across distant lands
A quest that has led my life
To these desert sands
Seeking the fire of the damned
This jewel
Artifact of the past
This orb of Cthul
I have found at last
A city lost in the sand
From forgotten times
Guarded by unearthly hands
A jewel red as fire
Fire of Ashurbanipal
Hides behind black temple walls
All who dare touch this gem fall
Under the black demon´s claws
This jewel
Artifact of the past
This orb of Cthul
I have found at last
I dare not disturb
This breath would be my last
Heed what you´ve heard
Or lose your soul to the past
Across distant lands
A quest that has led my life
To these desert sands
Seeking the fire of the damned
This jewel
Artifact of the past
This orb of Cthul
I have found at last
A city lost in the sand
From forgotten times
Guarded by unearthly hands
A jewel red as fire
Fire of Ashurbanipal
Hides behind black temple walls
All who dare touch this gem fall
Under the black demon´s claws
This jewel
Artifact of the past
This orb of Cthul
I have found at last
I dare not disturb
This breath would be my last
Heed what you´ve heard
Or lose your soul to the past
