|
To seek the sacred river Alph |
|
To walk the caves of ice |
|
To break my fast on honeydew |
|
And drink the milk of Paradise |
|
I had heard the whispered tales of immortality |
|
The deepest mystery from an ancient book I took a clue |
|
I scaled the frozen mountain tops of eastern lands unknown |
|
Time and man alone searching for the lost Xanadu, Xanadu |
|
To stand within the pleasure dome |
|
Decreed by Kubla Khan |
|
To taste anew the fruits of life |
|
The last immortal man |
|
To find the sacred river Alph |
|
To walk the caves of ice |
|
Oh, I will dine on honeydew |
|
And drink the milk of paradise, paradise |
|
A thousand years have come and gone but time has passed me by |
|
Stars stopped in the sky frozen in an everlasting view |
|
Waiting for the world to end, weary of the night |
|
Praying for the light prison of the lost Xanadu, Xanadu |
|
Held within the pleasure dome |
|
Decreed by Kubla Khan |
|
To taste my bitter triumph |
|
As a mad immortal man |
|
Nevermore shall I return |
|
Escape these caves of ice |
|
For I have dined on honeydew |
|
And drunk the milk of paradise, woah it is paradise |
