Glory Opera - Ants of Fire

A música fala sobre o ritual da tucandeira onde o curumim dança até o amanhecer com a mão calçando uma luva cheia de formigas tucandeiras. Dizem que a ferrada dessa formiga é extremamente dolorosa. Na música o curumim submete-se ao rito de passagem onde ao final se tornará um homem e o futuro líder da tribo.

Aí vai a letra da música.

Ants of Fire

Glory Opera

This pain within, that makes me wish to fall

Draining my strength away, it burns inside.

I won’t faint now, it’s the last ritual

Both shaman and my father will be proud.

Bridge

Near the very end, I smile.

Clear visions I see, ancient spirits of my tribe.

I shed no tears.

It’s almost done, the sun’s about to rise,

Lightening the paths I have to ride.

I’m a warrior prince, just like my ancestors,

The “curumin” has died in my heart’s core.

Bridge

Feel the stormy wind cry out.

Take these gloves away from me, drown the ants down in the river.

Chorus

The ritual is done,

Reborn on the leaves of dawn.

I’ll lead this tribe, they’re blood from my blood.

I’ll be their guide, to bring all the glory again.

See that moon over me, ask for nothing but freedom

All this land belong to us, my friends.
