Gaping in the horizon An entire continent cloached on ice With giant icesheets constantly on the move Seas of this continent so cold and invisible Where icebergs move as monuments Towards a dry damned earth
Behind the gates and mighty portals Of the arctic polar circle Builds the frozen layers of snow A perfect platform to grow against the seasons The snowbelts of Antarctica rise With its dark polar winterstorms
Towering in the horizon An entire continent cloached on ice With giant icesheets constantly on the move Floating nearer with its tide and icy waves The shadow of Antarctica spreads With its masses of permafrost
The clima shifts so colder for the icier age Glaciers stretches for washing everything away
Antarctica… the darkest face of ice Antarctica… the coldest place of all Antarctica… massive and unconquerable
