Bya Gtor (Scattered by Vultures) Lyrics


Ceased greatly far from deliverance,

the harrowing aeon persists.

I leave behind an empty vessel;

a hollow grail.

Placed high above on the charnel ground,

the excarnation begins.

Sacred scavengers surround the mortal part,

left to decay.

Scattered by vultures

on the top of the tower of silence

Surrounded by carrion birds,

my remains sustain other lives.

Scattered by vultures,

the traces are left to decompose.

Surrounded by birds of prey,

a burial in the sky.

My journey has already started

so have no grief for me.

I was condemned to reincarnation;

the endless cycle carries on.

Scattered by vultures

on the top of the tower of silence

Surrounded by carrion birds,

my remains sustain other lives.

Scattered by vultures,

the traces are left to decompose.

Surrounded by birds of prey,

a burial in the sky.

Through consciousness I will travel

leaving merely flesh, blood and bone.

The stream of life and rebirth goes on,

and karma is my judge.

Mighty creatures of the sky,

emanation of the wisdom deities,

foresee the future and gather the gods;

guide me to as a higher realm.
