<poem style="border: 1px solid #8eb6d4; background-color: #0b0b14; padding-left: 1em; padding-right: 3em; border-radius: 10px; width: fit-content">
Along the world axis
The empress lay sleeping
To the rhyme of the, of the
Of the star clock
Seven sleepers ''(Seven, seven, seven, seven, seven, seven, seven)''
Seven sages ''(Seven, seven, seven, seven, seven, seven, seven)''
Seven ladders to the, to the ''(Seven, seven, seven, seven, seven, seven, seven)''
Seventh heaven

Seven stars ''(Seven, seven, seven, seven, seven, seven, seven)''
Had Ursa Major ''(Seven, seven, seven, seven, seven, seven, seven)''
Tables turning, turning ''(Seven, seven, seven, seven, seven, seven, seven)''
And rain maker ''(Seven, seven, seven, seven, seven, seven, seven)''
While the seven ''(Seven, seven, seven, seven, seven, seven, seven)''
The visitors ''(Seven, seven, seven, seven, seven, seven, seven)''
All went, all went ''(Seven, seven, seven, seven, seven, seven, seven)''
A-drumming

Dance a Don Pedro
Do the Don Pedro
Games after death
Night dances 'round
Samedi the black man
In alchemy

Salute the four quarters
Before I leave your eyes
Twinned in the mirror
Les Mesteres come
End me adoration
Before I leave your eyes
World in the mirror
Waters of amnesia come

''(Seven, seven, seven, seven, seven, seven, seven)''
Do you know, do you know, do you know do you know ''(Seven, seven, seven, seven, seven, seven, seven)''
Do you know, do you know, do you know ''(Seven, seven, seven, seven, seven, seven, seven)''
Do you know the court of Eve?

Beneath the polar mountain
Rose cross and crosser there
Symbols of the swan
Aerial races
In rotation over
The magical casement
Visions of a parallel world

Dance a Don Pedro
Do the Don Pedro
Games after death
Night dances 'round
Samedi the black man
In alchemy

''(Seven, seven, seven, seven, seven, seven, seven)''
''(Seven, seven, seven, seven, seven, seven, seven)''
''(Seven, seven, seven, seven, seven, seven, seven)''
''(Seven, seven, seven, seven, seven, seven, seven)''
''(Seven, seven, seven, seven, seven, seven, seven)''
''(Seven, seven, seven, seven, seven, seven, seven)''
''(Seven, seven, seven, seven, seven, seven, seven)''
''(Seven, seven, seven, seven, seven, seven, seven)''
''(Seven, seven, seven, seven, seven, seven, seven)''
''(Seven, seven, seven, seven, seven, seven, seven)''</poem>

== Trivia ==
* The lyrics in this song's chorus appear to have been altered when the song was transcribed for the official Blue Öyster Cult website. The site, as well as the ''[[Re Imaginos]]'' version, use the phrase "Samedi and Petre". The original line as heard on ''Imaginos'' is "Samedi the black man", referring to Baron Samedi, the lwa of death and resurrection in Haitian Vodou, who is often depicted as a black man with a skull painted on half of his face. The change may have been made due to the potentially offensive nature of the phrase, but no acknowledgment of the change currently exists.
