Extrefato - Isis Osiris Lyrics

In Egypt's land where the Nile flows wide
A just and wise king ruled by his people's side
Osiris was the name of this noble king
With Isis his queen who made his heart sing
He taught mankind to sow and reap
To live in peace and laws to keep
But Seth, his brother, with envy burned
And in the shadows, dark plots he churned
He crafted a chest both fancy and bright
Adorned with gold a dazzling sight
Who fits inside shall earn my prize
Seth spoke with cunning, veiling his lies
Osiris stepped in trusting and kind
But Seth slammed it shut with evil in mind
Into the Nile the chest was hurled
Robbing the king from his mortal world
Isis wept her grief was vast
Yet her hope endured steadfast
She searched for her love through land and wave
Guided by prayers and the strength she gave
At last she found him near the shore
Trapped in a chest lifeless once more
With magic and love she breathed him anew
But Seth's cruel hand struck again too
He tore Osiris limb from limb
Scattering the pieces far and grim
Yet Isis resolved reclaimed each part
Weaving him whole with her love and art
Osiris rose, eternal and wise
To rule the dead in the starry skies
And Isis with Horus, their vengeful heir
Brought justice to Seth ending despair
Thus the myth endures through time
A tale of love both vast and sublime
Isis and Osiris forever they reign
Symbols of life of loss and of pain
