Aztec Codex / Tlazohcamati

from V For Vendetta by We Are Legion

/

lyrics

This is an ancient Aztec / Nahuatl codex to all-too-often forgotten words of civilizations that have been demonized and which they attempted to obliterate and vilify, yet they were some of the most complex and advanced beings in the Cosmos, and some of the greatest and purest warriors... this is dedicated to my twin flame Em Yari & to the Goddess Maha Kali, but also was greatly inspired by and dedicated to Xochitl and La India Del Sol, as well as to any and all of you from these glorious pueblas...

Ma xinechtlapohpolhui to any Nahuatl/Aztec peoples listening, I did not practice this nor did I have a guide for pronunciation, this is a 1 take, first take freeverse and freestyle, and as such I want to apologize to any of you for not properly honouring all of the exact pronunciation.

(English Translation)

Peace to all of you, greetings, may you be well…

(But) how do you live, how are you living?

We have not seen each other for a long time….

What is your birth name, who are you?

I am Imox, the crocodile totem

I am also Anton Oskara

The Spear of Destiny

The Destiny of the Métis, and Mestizes, and Mestizas

Where are you from? Where is your true birth place?

I am from Orion

I am also from the Cosmos

I was born in the City of the Goddess
like all of us, women, men and oracles

It’s a pleasure to meet you (all)

How was your Dawn?

How was your Day?

How was your Dusk?

May your night be a good one,
May you sleep in Peace,
Until I see you later…

May your luck be prosperous,
May your days be benevolent,
Infinite Blessings/thanks to you all…
(for all that you are)

I Love you all, I Love you beyond these words.

These words, what are they?
They are a blue bowl
Full of toasted corn/maize
Our riddle cannot be anything
but the blue Sky

All of us are already (dead)
At the edge of the Fire
Already at the stairway
(Awaiting our sacrifice)


We join Tlatehcutli,
the Earth Goddess, to die
This is our act of repayment to Her

Our heart, our blood, our kokal/cacao
The Black Ink, the Red Paint,
The Knowledge and Wisdom
of our Ancestors

The heart that can be born,
it is split in two with doubt
(yet it is also like the Knowledge and Wisdom)
The heart rules all
(it is beyond comprehension)

Dearest friends, you who share my days
We are the burden of the Divinities

Today the Heart has covered its face
in Pacha Mama/the Earth
(the death of the Sun is upon us)
but His spirit totem/tonalli is helping Him
and His Breath, His Word
(is still with us, he speaks with a blue tongue)

If anything is to be of this, it is up to me/us
(Only we can change the world now)
It is only by my hand, by my face, my heart, my spirit
that either I will wither, or I will bloom,
I will become as green land, as tilled earth
I will germinate, I will sprout.
My heart is of the Rainbow (White with Love),
your heart is of the Rainbow (White with Love)
Em Yari, Xochitl (Sacred Flower)
La India Del Sol Invictus
(Indigenous Goddess of the Invincible Sun)
Like all the youth of the invincible streets...

All human beings are born free and equal
in dignity and rights.
They are endowed with reason and supraconscience
and should act towards one another in a spirit of Harmony.
