The Jaguar Priest

Ever since the road to the stars
Descended from the heavens to earth
I have seen the thirteen and nine
I was shown the source of my birth

Chilam balam show us the way
We must spill the blood of your brothers
Even til the very last day,
Even that a father and mother

I am the jaguar priest
For the people I gather the knowledge
The jungle opens up for me,
As I run to meet the great God

Kukulkan
Speaks only to me
As the sun rises up in the east
I am the only one allowed to see
I am the jaguar priest

He told me to paint the bodies blue
And prepare for the blood sacrifice
Its the only way the people are free from the
Awesome wrath of kukulkan
Sacrifice, and vow before me
Get on your knees
I am eternal, for the stars I leave
I will always be, the jaguar priest

Sacrifice, and vow before me
On your knees
I am eternal, for the stars I leave
I will always be, the jaguar priest

Ever since the road to the stars
Descended from the heavens to earth
I have seen the thirteen and nine
I was shown the source of my birth

He has showed me the mark of the days
All the way up to the point in time
When thirteen baktun shall open up
The road to the underworld

Sacrifice, and vow before me
Get on your knees

This is how I know
So, I will make, the calendar
To mark all the days
And when kukulkan return to the sea
I will stop atop el castillo
He will always provide for me
Never leave me alone, in the darkness
For I am not merely, like all the others
I am the jaguar priest
