[Verse] The heat of the sun burns our flesh The shifting sand of the earth tears our skin In this fight against cruel fate Hold on to eternal hate For the return of our lord, of our kin [Chorus] Deshret! Lord of the Scarlet Sands The true master of all these lands The Scarlet King will soon take wing And the Jinn will begin to sing Deshret! True king of erudition The one who will resolve this condition Tear down the schools of the forest's fools This is our only mission. [Verse 2] In the days of Ay-Khanoum we were great A city that transcended mortal fate But those days would never last From his throne our king was cast By that snake, by that hoar, that ingrate! [Verse 3] But our god-king's mind was not torn asunder We await his return from the Golden Slumber The spawn of Rukkhadevata quake Their pretentious towns will break From the lord of the sands' wonder Chorus] Deshret! Lord of the Scarlet Sands The true master of all these lands The Scarlet King will soon take wing And the Jinn will begin to sing Deshret! True king of erudition The one who will resolve this condition Tear down the schools of the forest's fools This is our only mission.
