A destroyer of nations has set out Your cities will be ruins without inhabitants My wrath will go forth like fire And burn with no one to quench it Disaster overtakes disaster The whole land is laid waste I looked on on the earth, And lo, it was waste and void And to the heavens They had no light Because of this The earth shall mourn And the heavens above grow black O darkness ensnare us And lead us to a star at world's end I looked on on the earth, And lo, it was waste and void And to the heavens They had no light Now sorrow is mine! And the bodies of these people Will be food for the birds of heaven And the beasts of the earth And there will be no one to send them away
