*About the lyrics: Sources say that the lyrics created by Eric Levi is "based on chants in an imaginary language close to Latin".
I'm not sure how accurate this Spanish to English translation is, but I just want to restate panchovaladez's comment:
"The majority of the era letters is composed by Eric Levi, the letters are a compilation of the Latin and of the French and for that reason they do not have translation."
Also, below are two versions of the lyrics. I can't tell which one is correct as I'm still trying to find that out. If you have a copy of the CD album Era 2 or The Very Best of Era, please let me know.
