Alma Mater Lyrics

Moonspell Alma Mater

Mother Tongue speaks to Me
In the strongest way I¹ve ever seen
I know that she sees in Me
Her proudest child, her purest breed
She speaks to me in colours
That I can¹t really understand
I only know that they are ours
And to those I¹ll proudly bend
For I am your only child
And you my dearest mystery
From an ancient throne I defy the world
To kneel before the Power within.
For I am your only child
And she is my dearest mystery
World can¹t you see it ?
Am I alone in my belief ?
Virando costas ao Mundo
Orgulhosamente sós
Glória Antiga, volta a nós!
Alma mater !
Breaking waves announce my Bride
It is the only way the Sea could sing
Legends of Lusitanian pride
He sings the words I can not spring
At the Moon Mountain six wolves cry
Your lost glory we¹ll regain or die
For I am her only child
And she is my dearest mystery
Pagan Gods in conspiracy
For the sword of Tyranny
Mother Tongue has spoke to thee
In the strongest way they¹ve ever seen
World can¹t you see ?
I am not alone in my belief
Alma mater !
Virando costas ao Mundo
Orgulhosamente sós
Glória Antiga, volta a nós!
Alma mater !
