Tahmuras or Tahmures (Persian: تهمورث or طهمورث), New Persian transliteration Ṭahmūraṯ, older Persian Tahmurat or Tahmurath, from Avestan Taxma Urupa, is the third Shah of the world according to Ferdowsi's epic poem, the Shahnameh. He is considered as the builder of Merv. There is no evidence for his existing as an earlier Aryan chief.
Tahmuras was the son of Hushang. In his time the world was much troubled by the demons of Ahriman. On the advice of his vizier Šaydāsp (شیداسپ), Tahmuras used magic to subdue Ahriman and made him his slave, even riding upon his back as on a horse. The demons rebelled against Tahmuras, and he made war against them with both magic and force. By magic he bound two-thirds of the demons; the remaining third he crushed with his mace. The race of divs now became Tahmuras's slaves, and they taught him the art of writing in thirty different scripts.
Like his father, Tahmuras was a great inventor of arts for easing the human condition. He invented the spinning and weaving of wool, learned to domesticate chickens, how to store up fodder for livestock instead of merely grazing them, and how to train animals like dogs and falcons to hunt for people.
How could it be for real, how could it ever happen to us
The nightmares you've never given a second thought, I'd
expect to come up the last
This is the way it is, this the way it supposed to be
You keep on babbling this bullshit, but have you ever
thought what it means
Dare! To throw this shit away.
Dare! Go ahead make my day.
Dare! Before it's too late
As bad as it gets
What else could you take as it is, even if it the worse
comes to the worse
Can't you see the horror happening next door
The lie you like has just replaced the one that you don't
I just don't buy it, I don't believe a fuckin word
Dare! To throw this shit away.
Dare! Go ahead make my day.
Dare! Before it's too late
As bad as it gets
As bad as it gets
Dare! To throw this shit away.
Dare! Go ahead make my day.
Dare! Before it's too late
