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 americas with ease,
|
in their ships with painted sails.
|
to the east africa was her neighbour,
|
across a short strait of sea miles.
|
the great egyptian age is
|
but a remnant of the atlantian culture.
|
|
the antediluvian kings colonised 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 sent out ships to all corners of the earth.
|
on board were the twelve:
|
|
a poet, a physician, a farmer, a scientist,
|
a magician and the other so-called gods of our legends.
|
though gods they were -
|
and as the elders 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.
