[Verse 1] I am Anshar, horizon father, sky-bone above the deep. I rose when waters still had teeth, when names were only sleep. I am the upper vault, the first high law of air. My spouse is Kishar, earth’s broad edge, the ring that holds us there. I do not boast with thunder. I keep the older line. I watch the dark make room for dawn, and call that work divine. [Pre-Chorus] Before the kings and cedar gates, before the towers of pride, I was the span between the worlds, the open and the wide. Kishar beside me, steady hand, the mother of the hill, we turned our faces to the stars and held the world still. [Chorus] Anshar, sky above Anshar, hold the world Anshar, first of heights Anshar, ancient word I am the reach I am the rim I am the breath before the hymn (Anshar) (Anshar) [Verse 2] My children gather in my shadow, bright names from blood and breath. Some walk as judgments, some as storms, some learn the shape of death. I father lines that climb and bend, that answer throne and spear. I do not choose the gentler road, I choose what lasts here. My lineage is a ladder set against the void of night. Each rung is made of memory, each step a broken light. [Pre-Chorus] Kishar keeps the ground unbroken, I keep the vault aligned. Between her green and my cold heights, the worlds are intertwined. We are not lovers only. We are the law of two: the firmament and fertile earth, the ancient made anew. [Chorus] Anshar, sky above Anshar, hold the world Anshar, first of heights Anshar, ancient word I am the reach I am the rim I am the breath before the hymn (Anshar) (Anshar) [Bridge] I saw the first division. I watched the waters part. I learned that order is a vow made silently at start. If wrath comes, I outlast it. If kings rise, I remain. I am the ceiling of the many, the witness to their name. [Final Chorus] Anshar, sky above Anshar, hold the world Anshar, first of heights Anshar, ancient word Kishar at my side earth-root, open hand Sky remembers earth and I remember land Anshar, sky above Anshar, hold the world (Anshar) (Anshar)
