- The Seventh Seal LyricsAnd when the lamb
Opened the next two seals,
We saw the souls,
We saw the martyrs,
We heared them crying,
We heared them shouting,
They were dressed in white,
They'd been told to wait.
The sun was black,
The moon was red,
The stars were falling,
The earth was trembling.
And then a crowd
Impossible to number
Carrying flowers,
Shouted amid
The hotless sun
The lightless moon
The windless earth
The colourless sky :
"How much longer
Will we suffer from hunger?
How much longer
Will we suffer from thirst?"
And when the lamb
Opened the seventh seal,
Silence covered the sky
Opened the next two seals,
We saw the souls,
We saw the martyrs,
We heared them crying,
We heared them shouting,
They were dressed in white,
They'd been told to wait.
The sun was black,
The moon was red,
The stars were falling,
The earth was trembling.
And then a crowd
Impossible to number
Shouted amid
The hotless sun
The lightless moon
The windless earth
The colourless sky :
"How much longer
Will we suffer from hunger?
How much longer
Will we suffer from thirst?"
And when the lamb
Opened the seventh seal,
Silence covered the sky

When we dive into the story the lyrics are telling, the track 'The Seventh Seal' of Aphrodite's Child portrays a picture of confusion and distress in the same manner that the Book of Revelation does. The comparisons of the lamb breaking seals indicate the coming of events of doom, alongside the very painterly descriptions of the heavens being disturbed and the world crying for relief from its sufferings.

Simultaneously, the composition highlights the significance of the state of suffering and despair, faith and patience, and the use of vivid apocalyptic imagery.
