The song speaks for itself if you know that it is part of the Mabool album, a concept album of the flood (Mabool in Hebrew) that is a metaphor for something that can wash away all that has been or wash away all differences and wars. It symbolises that mankind has to unite to overcome that all we strived for will be washed away.
Indeed the three men of flesh and blood represent the three monotheistic religions: Islam, Christianity, Judaism. They warn a flood is coming and that mankind has to unite to overcome it. It is like a warning or prophecy in the story of the album. "This place where man used to be born" refers to Israel, the Middle East, which is the cradle of civilisation and of course Jerusalem is a holy city in all three monotheistic religions. The outro of the song is an Islamic call for prayer as you can hear from the minarets of any mosque in the Middle East.
