- A Fiery Stride
[Music: Jarpen, Aydan / Lyrics: Jarpen]
Follow again one single piece
of dream afar
Spent my all whole life there,
chasing the hope
A drive so strong,
- A Poem For The Firmament
It's simply too hard
To blow out all these fragments of star
The dawn never shines
I'm condemned to this eternal night
Fly away, far away
Oh, whence I could feel you whole
There's a light in your eyes I'll follow
- A Riddle of Stars
[Lyrics by: Aydan]
(Of Love and Death, of Earth and War
Death is the saviour, Life is a whore
Of hugs and lashes, Of caresses and scars
There is a light, a riddle of stars)
There's a fire that warms the cold room
- A Song for the People
Staring at the horizon with all years that weigh
Said old Tom Walton: "Life's not here to wait"
And cheering and toasting with no so clear mind
"To pay and to die there's always time"
Marion does not look back to what's done
But let her feel before she has gone
While Mr Lancaster, as it cleary appears
- An Autumn Reverie
Mystic night
A line of purple lanterns
Tracing her steps to a new glance
With no shame
Hollow and no dreams left
She fancies her romance
For what her life has gifted
- Another Awful Hobs Tale
Into this dark horizon we need a miracle!
to keep on hoping everyday is something magical
Our thirst for (the) promise to carry on
Is slowly falling down
and now we will claim it back!
Last time we saw the Green Man,
- Bride of Night
Flames ablaze in the cold winter haze
The sky’s alight
Anguish felt all through the night
Behold now
Behold the moon of silver
The pain encircles and obscures the sight
of this wondrous orb of white
- Chronicle of a Frozen Era
Mankind
Mother of this bad child
Father of these wayward sons
What did you do so wrong?
Angels
Fallen from divine anger
We're vultures with black spread wings
- Covenant
Nuit
Hadit
Ra-Hoor-Khuit
The Order of the Sphinx
Ah the Giant’s cult
Nuit
Hadit
- Death And The Suffering
How can I accept this way?
A countdown to the final day
Holding by the blade the knife
How can I accept my life?
The Skeleton beholds our race (for)
New faces to deface
Grinding our hopes to be
- Devil's Carriage
On a hill, on the devil's top
There is a man hiding in the shadows of the night
He's trying to stop the course of time
The line dividing good from wrong
There is more than meets the eye
In this world full of lies and death
The devil's carriage is leading all the souls to a place so far away
- Disappearing Sands
[Music: Jarpen, Aydan / Lyrics: Jarpen]
At dawn the ships arrived, they sailed
through seas and foreign skies
To bring another age in lands
that needed no constraints
By the sign of the fire,
all pagan gods were bleeding
- Disillusion's Reel
Every time I try to understand
The meaning hiddendep into my heart
I crumble down the taste of losing all
Is always bitter when I sip from my cold blood
[Bridge:]
Losing what when there is nothing much to gain?
Stop yourself and have a thought
- Divination
A dense knot of desires
Eight spirit's are alight
In morning dews and fire
Eight diamonds in the night
At the sight of the flames
Stories tell secrets unknown
The desolate sound of runes forlorn
- Dominhate
(A day of Life, a night of Sex
I'm going through every kind of excess
Till I find myself hating the mirror
Where a Stranger sees me clad in terror)
A lullaby of personnalities
Introduce another side of me
A demonic twist of Fate
- Draugen's Maelstrom
Standing on the damp, wooden helm
I still not surrender
Barely I can hear the crew's moans
They're crying loud through the pouring rain
The icy spurts
And the crackling of the boards
I glimpse the headless, nightclad ghost
- Elven Legions
(Verse)
Burn the flags out, back to the darkness
Think that's one of a kind?
Wohoe! We're going for the witches night
Music empirical, the odd bard, dragonheart
Big stouts rock ahead!
Rohem! The elven dragon lair
Fire! All the flames we decimate fears
- ELVENLEGIONS
Так как слов ещё нигде нет, вот примерно то, что я услышала. Извиняюсь за упоротость.
[rode] on the red skies
[.../until?] of darkness
Six of us, one of a kind
We dance on the witches' night
Music and fury for the outcasts' brotherhood
- Eternal Eleanor
Listen ye, Eternal Eleanor
Your sweet and lukewarm elegance
Is a spoon of sunny mornings touch
Listen ye, Eternal Eleanor
Caress us with your mellow voice
Embrace us in your summer clutch
- Forget-Me-Not
We are what we daydream to be
The world ends the day of our death
Forget-me-not...
I'm saying lies, false to myself
Trying to persuade and be convincing
While the frost breaks up my shell
For instance...
- From Blood To Stone
As the lights slowly fade in an emerald whirl
I dig through my broken ideals
As the sun hides his smile from the plain down below
I stand enchanted
I need to find something to fill my whole without falling, falling apart
Something that can give me a reason to hope, falling, falling apart
- Grandier's Funeral Pyre
A blissful maid has pierced my heart
She's feasted on my soul
A banquet made of flesh and bone
So I was dethroned
Like kings without their shields and swords
Like bards without their chords
Now call the Ravens, light the fire
To rot in hell my curse
- Herdchant
A chant is resounding afar
Is calling your name aloud
A call from the mountains
A song sung by the folks through the centuries
A ballad echoes through ages bringing your name out immortally
War hymns and poetries preserve your token of love for eternity
Still don’t step in the abyss below
- Hobs 'N Feathers
The hobs are climbing on the hill
To seek the gold of fairy light
Into the holts they run and wait
They dress in green, they love their gold
They talk to hornbeams in the cold
The old forest is their shelter
- Horns Ablaze
Never ask what your future will bring
The crystall ball, tarots and rings
Will never answer the questions of Life
'cause Death has the answers, you're throat's on the knife
Looking through the shades of a dusty glass ball
Her glance in a fright, soon you'll be called?
What if you'd know of your Lot before time?
- Incantations
At the stroke of witching hour
Just a frame before the dawn
They’ll be gathered in covens unknown
In the circle of the Runes
On the cusp of Algiz stone
Eight figures aligned on the lawn
- Infection
[Lyrics by: Damna]
(For all the ones who seek their dawn
My wrath I breed, My wrath I spawn
Behind a crooked cross they hide
Forever I Shall be their bride)
Amidst this fog my body twitches with the wolves growl
- Jigsaw Puzzle
Take a look at the new rules of this game
Wicked laughters are feeding their fame
Hearing the cries from the empty shells
Unmoved they seem
Hungry for turmoil and wedges
Ivy-clad so that we can't see
One peace at a time they steal
- Lost Hill Of Memories
Lyrics by: Aydan
(...and if you follow the trails down this winter wake
Sh's reaping down souls, one for every flake
Throughout the ages, through centuries
She, mistress of customs, of memories)
Strange the breeze
- Malefica Doctrine
Malefica - Malefica Doctrina
Malefica - Malefica Doctrina
Rise the glance to the
Cross he was nailed upon
To the secrets that remain ignored
The alchemy of hidden
Doctrines and Black Lords
- Midnight Skies, Winter Sighs
[Chorus]
As I walk this mad paved with angriness and pain
The Tree of Life is eating with its roots below my feet
Everytime I try to catch the tail of a shooting star above
My hands remain so empty and inside me there's a void
Midnight skies
Winter sighs
- Miss Conception
Have you ever thought that all of the things you believe
To be right may be just rules they stuck in you mind
They took you by the hand and led you just like you were blind
You learnt we're living in a world that is built on a lie
We are the good ones and we don't care when the others die
God is the answer and the strongest will always survive
- Moonchariot
[Music:Aydan, Damnagoras / Lyrics: Aydan]
I built a cradle for the Moon
And from her chariot (she) grants my
boon - I'll keep my promises, I'm sure
She won't betray me
I'm bathed in her pale lightfall
- My Own Spider's Web
Please come to me, to where my emotions still sleep
The garden of hidden memories
To where your spirit can breathe and hope to be free
In my shelter my thoughts have been trapped for a while
'Cause it was so easy, easy for them to fall and be caught
In this dark spider's web... my own spider's web
- Neverending Nights
I can see them running towards me
All the time they steal my dreams
The ghosts of past and sorrow
All the time they steal my dreams
When I take a walk outside, whispers will surround my head
I can hear the echo of my voice, a hundred times or more
They shout, they carry on
They whisper on my sorrow
- Not My Final Song
Not My Final Song
I am looking around, laid down in my coffin
See faces with tears in their eyes
But hey wasn't (that) her?
and I also see the guy who used to hate me so much?
And I don't need mourning laments
- Oakenshield
Oh pick up flutes and fiddles, a new tune is beginning
A melody forsaken, on the chords of our elders' song
Each note is telling a story, a fragment of existence
Oh people ye who listen, sit down and hear the old man's story
He was standing right in front of me, few steps from where I've been
That day the manor's tower is hiding a sun in agony
Filthy and soiled from head to feet, his sword was rusty and ruined
- On The Morning Dew
At the border of the plain where suddenly the forest dies
On the first day of the season
When the moon will shine full in the sky
I will wait for you there bathed by a magic light
I will wait, I will pray for this moment to become alive
For this night I will see as an elf clad in leaves
You´re going to see myself the fairy of your secret dreams
Even if all this belongs to worlds of fantasy
- Pagan Purity
One with the earth, pave my way through the green
From above I stare down at (the) crowds
There by the oaks, I'll honour the roots and the clouds
With trembling hands I feel my pure life deep within
[Bridge:] deep, deep colour of the leaves awakes me
Deep, deep colour of the sky:
- Pathfinders
Stand before the new born kind
There is a song, taken far by the winds
A rhyme of poets, a melody
Wrapped in a dream
The elvensong has gone, to another realm
- Penny Dreadful
Forgive me if I'm out of order –
This new 'music' has no soul
It may be good for making money,
Sadly that is not my goal
Integrity and honesty are words that you don't understand,
but you're the best – it says so in the penny dreadful in your hand
I saw you in a magazine,
- Petalstorm
Have you seen?
There's a hidden corner on these lands
Where cold wait's patiently where, they say
The colour of the things is real
Can't you see? Take a sit down here
And take a bowl of calamint tea
It will keep you warm until the night is gone
- Poison Tears
Lyrics by: Damna
(The puritan filth, where ivy grows
The poisoned tear, the thorn, the rose
The sin, the pleasure, the sexual urge
Is what I choose for my last dirge)
This is the day I'll die
- Poor Little Baroness
She was golden and of milky skin
Peace at heart far from all suffering
She was under Venus' spell
A Goddess pure from higher heavens fell
He held the scene, a poignant gleam
When he won her heart just with a beam
He approached so near, her trembling bliss
- Possession
Carry on, everything's over
Stare at the dawn, as sky is covering
Clouds are darkening the horizon and our lives
Carry on, we can't stand this silence.
Holding on to a wicked sensation
Pounding strong, it's pure emotion
How long does it last inside our living hearts?
- Reader of the Runes - Book I
I can sense a demon within carries your name
Oh Ethel, Dear Ethel
I'll carry hurt to their divided hearts
Somebody died on that dark awful night
Somebody's bound to bear the price
Unaware under a pale moonlight
The runes will wake blood sacrifice
- Red Mist
Why can’t the whitest snow
Hide, cover, conceal bleak memories?
Why can’t the winds of north blow away this chilling pain?
I pray upon the brightest stars
To give me force to run afar
From the source of this secret restless wrath
The dawn will soon arise
- Romance And Wrath
(To cut the strings, to end their lives
No mercy, pity, no false disguise
Morte, Amore, Death and Love
Behold their pain from high above)
Pale moon skies
Witnesses of my inner pit of commotion
Chaos rise!
- Rouse Your Dream
Listen yourself talking words meaningless
Listen, where are the emotions you feel?
Take a look into yourself for a while
What you see doesn´t scare you at all?
Balance on the edge of what´s wrong and what is nothing but
A different way to see things as they are
Please, don´t go astray

- Silence De Mort
I walk in silence
Silence de mort
Every night the same old dream
La fleur du cur being slaughtered from within
And I know how - I know now - I know how
Every time I can feel, I can hear
- Silverseal
On that summer's eve
We have made a deal
Endorsed by a seal
We'd stay together
Pain and fears to allay
On that very day
I trusted your prayers
Lightweight as feathers
- Skywards
Your bright enchanting smile
Reminds me of the day when I learnt
That nothing lasts forever
And your goodwill's just another hoax of your kind
Time and time again
That feeling had got lost and ever since
I've tried to understand the meaning of
- Swallowtail
[Music / Lyrics: Damnagoras]
"Brimstone eyes she hath,
Black in colour looking sad
The hair like straw, her skin so raw...
A debauchery decadent"
Grandmother used to tell
"beware do not go near the hut - I say!"
- The Blackest Of My Hearts
Maybe I should cry, maybe I should deny
my tired face looking so grim
A jarful of thoughts is waiting under the sheets,
another sleepless night
I don't feel ashamed, I feel no guilt
I need to stay alive
Since there is no time, since the sands still flow
- the Cabal
I wake up and I feel I was stranded
In a world that hardly represents me
Step by step I collect all the nightmares
Like a modern Renoir I’m painting my life
Away
Don’t you think
That I not gonna worry?
- The Cursed Cavalier
From the Northern lands
From the districts of famine and snow
Hearsays have come
Uprisings will soon begin to dethrone the king
Cutthroat and cruel he came without mercy to rule
His past remains untold
- The Divided Heart
[Lyrics by: Damna]
(Half my heart a gift of purity
Half my heart a deadly curse
Half will live in sweet obscurity
Half will take me to my hearse)
Two sided heart pushing to face another walk from the start
- The Dweller of Rhymes
From the branch where he dwells and lies
Nature revealed in cloak of rhymes
A verse, hidden mirror
And from the treetop of an oak
He laughed at people down beneath
With his eyes travelling over the scene (so strange)
He could mind-trace the flow
- The Hanging Tree
Hanging, I see the corpses clinging
Half hooded in disguise, their shapes I recognize
They hang, on the grey oak, they swing
Ponder, so many miles I wandered
I roamed without an aim
I fought men without name
To reach this hanging tree
Hang by the throat they are tied to old wood
- The Loser
[Music by Aydan, Damna / lyrics by Damna]
You don't wanna see the other side of me
Don't wanna get involved in my own situation
You wouldn't believe in what you'd see
Cause you think I'm just a loser crazy bastard
I don't wanna run away - I just want you to get away
- The Moon and Magic
He's standing alone at the edge of that night
Surrounded by blaze lights
Staring the murk, distant and dense
Where stories are yet to be told
At the back of a fable
They ride towards crimson winds
That blow away
- The Open Breach
Understand, the weight of your words
Some may fade away and some will to last
And they dig, haunting my peace of mind
You'd might become my fallen idol
A God repressed by a man now atheist and grey
What I've found is just unreality
- The Perpetual Knot
And this journey begins --
with the beat of wings of lark
Her wake ravishing - skyforged spark
Gold-leaves are falling, all beasts are
howling, the signs are clear!
The forces are near -
the crows say that someone will die
- The Regality Dance
Gentlemen and ladies all please lend me your attention
I beg your pardon for my cheek, please join this heathenreel
Strange rules has this dance; suffers from a serious allergy
Reddens and becomes so unkind, when people're
Acting just like you
The regal dance's about to start and I am here to tell you
- The Repentant
Soil and worms is all I see above from deep down under
Smell of damp and rotten wood
I am still breathing
To live or not to live
To breathe or not to breathe
Should the bell ring for my unearthing?
Repent in ash and dust
- The Scythe
Lyrics by: Aydan
On this night of Nights, She's coming my way
Under this rain, dirty with agony and pain
Mistress of Doom, winner of all fights
My glance is reflected in the blade of the Scythe
A sparkling golden sickle
- The Silk Dilemma
Long the shores of a silent stream
I'm picking up pieces of my life
Finding out I was living my own dream
Beginning once again
I searched for themes
that I never knew before
It's like roaming a forest in winter
- The Time of Your Life
I saw a star tonight -
It was beautiful, untouchable
I saw a miracle happening up in the sky
I feel I don't have the strenght to do what is right
Oh what's right
I feel everything's crumbling down
And I try to survive
I see a crack in the wall -
- The Wanderer
chorus:
A slight call afar is tempting me
Like a whisper sweet or an awful scream
I cannot ignore what I've always been
I am leaving again - one last time?
Laid on the pale scythe of the Moon
I play with stars around me
- The Winter Wake
"The Winter Wake"
As the lights are growing dim
Freezing cold, slowly is fading in
Another Winter night will hold this wicked soul
I will wait for the new Sun to rise
Blind in darkness, witness my demise
Another Winter night is so long...
- This Nightmare Will Never End
Sometimes I feel like I don't wanna face myself and run away... in silence
All the memories, sentences that I just didn't wanna say... oh yesterday
Walking in silence, I could face my fears and try not to forget where I belong - where do I come from?
I was flying like a raven, bringing sadness to you all then my heart broke into pieces, that's when I started to fall.
I have walked on the path of solitary victim... in silence
I spoke the tongue of the dumb and no one listened to me.
- Those Days
Those days when nothing appeal
Pale were the glances of future
Vital the essence of us
Together we'd find a solution
Those days the kingdom was ours
Reigning over our landscapes
All my domain for a heart
- Through Wolf's Eyes
Since he was born, he'd tried to figure it out
Searching for something, just to not moon about
One day he saw a little red riding hood
He fell in love and followed her through the woods
Day after day he lurked with fear behing the trees
Sure that a bad-looking wolf would've put her ill at ease
"A wolf will never feel" - that is what they say
- To the North
I stand unconscious like an effigy in snow
Heading to the north
Swiftly blazing forth through this dire storm
Pledge allegiance to the northern winds
Carrying deep within spirals of despair
To the north I am tracing my winter wake
Enough with the torturing
- Under the Sign of a Black Star
Raised in the company of snakes
The parlance of a serpent
Born from the caring of a crow
The acuity of a bird of prey
"All appearances they fall when the
Soul is shattered
And dear reason back she crawls
- Warden of the Bane
Read the words I collected for you
Sing of drowning in lakes of your eyes
Calliope lightning the Stars above that pine
To you, my beloved concubine
I gifted poems of brine you were Beatrix
Muse of Hellfire spawn of Love
- White Willow
At night I heard the owls say :
"Find the truth beneath the stars
You'll have to travel back to heaths of green...
...The entrance to the oak woods will be revealed to you
A king will tell you to ride until..."
[Bridge:]
- Witches Gather
Incubus, Succubus
Quaestio de Strigibus
- QUAESTIO PRIMA -
Wandering back, back in time oh what have you learnt?
Of all the blood that was spilled, of all the witches burnt
Filth and greed, vicious deeds, the holy rise and fall
Killing in the name of the one who died for you all
