Alma Mater Lyrics

(Moonspell Cover)

Mother Tongue speaks to Me in the strongest way I've ever seen
I know that she sees in Me, Her proudest child, her purest breed
She speaks to Me in colours that I can't really understand
I only know that they are ours and to those I'll 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 you my dearest mystery
World can't you see it? Am I alone in my belief?

Virando costas ao Mundo
Orgulhosamente sòs
Gloria 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 cannot spring
At the Moon Mountain six wolves cry, your lost glory we'll 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 they've ever seen
World can't you see? I am not alone in my belief

Virando costas ao Mundo
Orgulhosamente sòs
Gloria Antiga, volta a nós!

Alma Mater!

Mother Tongue has spoke to Me in the strongest way I've ever seen
I know that she sees in Me, Her proudest child, her purest breed
She speaks to Me in colours I can't really understand
I only know that they are ours and to those I'll proudly bend
For I am her only child and she is my dearest mystery
From an ancient throne I defy the world to kneel before the powers within
For I am her only child and she is my dearest tragedy
World can't you see it? I am not alone in my belief

Virando costas ao Mundo
Orgulhosamente sos
Gloria Antiga, volta a nos!

Alma Mater!
