A vision from beyond the stars, where the Empress sleeps.
In Faërie, far above the clouds
In Faërie, far beyond the sea
Through sandy deserts, ancient forests
Through ruined cities, icy wastes
Over mountains high and steep

There slumbers, in a lonely castle
Somewhere in a realm of stone
A queen of queens
A luminous lady
Mistress of magics
And princess of stars

She sleeps until the sun goes out
Until the earth and moon a memory
On stardust bed she dreams of life

A creature divine
The Empress Alone
