Assyria's Phoenix

Pre-Chorus

Fire cannot burn us, exile cannot bind,

Ashur’s children endure through time.

Chorus

From ashes we rise, like the phoenix aflame,

Assyria alive, forever the same.

From every tribe, one people, one song,

The homeland awaits — we’ve been gone too long.

Chorus

We rise from the ashes, wings burning bright,

Assyria’s phoenix returns to the light.

From fire and ruin, from centuries long,

We soar as one people, unbroken, strong.

Verse 1 — The Tribes as the Phoenix

Tyari the flame, Jilu the cry,

Tkhuma and Baz are the sparks in the sky.

Gawar the strength, Diz and Tal the song,

Together the phoenix has flown all along.

Pre-Chorus

No exile can end us, no darkness stay,

Ashur’s fire is the dawn of our day.

Chorus

We rise from the ashes, wings burning bright,

Assyria’s phoenix returns to the light.

From fire and ruin, from centuries long,

We soar as one people, unbroken, strong.

Verse 2 — Homeland Reborn

Urmia’s waters reflect our flame,

Nineveh’s ruins remember our name.

Khabur shall blossom, Hakkari shall sing,

From death into life, a nation takes wing.

Verse 3 — Peace & Defense

Our banner is justice, our pathway is peace,

Yet we guard our children till dangers cease.

For the phoenix protects with fire and might,

Defending the dawn, defending the right.

Bridge — Phoenix Eternal

They burned our Churches, they shattered our stones,

But ashes are seeds — and the seed has grown.

With wings of fire, with hearts reforged,

Assyria rises, defying the storm.

Final Chorus

We rise from the ashes, wings burning bright,

Assyria’s phoenix returns to the light.

From fire and ruin, from centuries long,

We soar as one people, eternal, strong.
