PAGANHEART album, 2006
Pagan Folk Metal
LYRICS:
Many aeons ago,
before the human race,
(the) darkest emanations
ruled upon the Earth.
There is an ancient tale
from the warriors of the west.
It tells about
a brave who crossed the vast ocean.
Quetzalcoatl!
Quetzalcoatl, an ancient god
of the extinct Mayan civilization.
He had a beard and white skin,
odd for the local folk.
Quetzalcoatl came from the east sea
and returned whence he came
promising to return.
And his final destiny
nobody knows...
Mayan, a superior civilization.
They had so much knowledge,
like astronomy, architecture, theater,
writing, magic and prophecies,
mathematics, medicine...
Many knowledge (and books)
brought by
Quetzalcoatl!
Immortal is the knowledge in those ancient books,
which came from the orient
by the hands of this brave being,
who crossed the vast ocean
to reach his final destiny.
The last (last?) of his quests.
Who really were you?
Quetzalcoatl?!
@CeliaInSurreland Indeed, their lyrics are a bit wrong, he was the same God/Priest to the Mayan people but there he was called Kukulcan.

Quetzalcoatl was a Nahua deity, not Mayan.
