That night when the lake was stormy and the waves unleashed the horror

The street of onyx shone no more and the walls of Sarnath were torn



Calamity befell in that starless night, destruction of nomads false pride



The last dance of Sarnath



Once the sons of Ib reveled, before the face of rising Nanna

Wherefrom they came in veiling fog the great lake carried with'em



The last dance of Sarnath



After them came the wandering nomads and built the Sarnath next to Ib

With despise in their heart Ib was soon attacked



But after the thousand years, vengeance upon feeble ones

Sarnath lying ruined under the rising sun
