Dark Poems Author --------------------------------------------------------------------------- Lord Of Flies --------------------------------------------------------------------------- Above the earth swarm thousands On the ground they run by the sign of the sun In the wastes summons a voice A voice of destruction, the calls for stavation Abomination towards the sun Now there is nowhere to run Foul and cursed A home of ugliness, torture and pain Take me there The horror that hides behinds this supernatural being Foul and cursed The stench of this desert What have I done? He is Lord of Flies --------------------------------------------------------------------------- Shairak Rinnummh --------------------------------------------------------------------------- All this is seen in black and white This storm, this sea A violent inferno, out of nowhere "Devil, painting my soul black Your blood flows in my veins Master of rats, leader of bats You are the sun, you are the moon You are the wind that sweeps this land" I will cross with glory and pride "The sunset that never ends The wave that never stops The tree that never grew old Darkness and pain forever reign You are my brigtest star in the sky, o Shaitan" I gave my soul and I will burn A river of madness, a path of sin The pit of horrors that you showed me Is where I will dwell and stay in command --------------------------------------------------------------------------- Vinterriket --------------------------------------------------------------------------- Monotant landskap strekker seg endel¯st og skjuler mange tapte liv En hel tidsalder av onde minner glemmes ei, glemmes ei Er det sorg i luften? Er angsten sÂdd i frossen grunn? ...Fortvilte tÂrer... I dag er det kun ruiner tilbake Som jorden arr stÂr de, tause Sten p sten, dekket av sn¯ Aner dere hvor vondt det gj¯r? English: - WINTER REALM - Monotonous landscape stretches endlessly and conceals many lost lives An age of evil memories will not be forgotten Is there sorrow in the air? Is anxiety sown in frozen ground? ...Tears of anguish... Today only ruins are left As the earth¥s own scars they stand, silent Stone by stone, covered with snow Do you know how it hurts? --------------------------------------------------------------------------- A Witch Is Born --------------------------------------------------------------------------- In a crooked house as old as the forest A child was born in fire Her hellish voice, her furious screams In my crystal that night I could hear Ten thousand childrean: The dau she was born Suffered and died in their crypts A witch is born (repeat x 4) With eyes of lightning, raven black hair She was a beauty She came here to rule us all With her cruelty I admire her beauty, and The madness that she brings Singing in awe Hail o new born witch A witch is born (repeat x 4) --------------------------------------------------------------------------- Through The Veils Of Darkness --------------------------------------------------------------------------- I leave this world behind in absencee of my body Where trails of troubled souls shall lead the way I swore to return to this place of suffering And when I see the demon¥s eye stare at me I know my time has come and all I could do has been done Brought to the end of my tail I stop and behold all the different worlds I am shapeless, dead and lost for words... --------------------------------------------------------------------------- The Mystical Play Of Shadows --------------------------------------------------------------------------- Every night a darker one A time of death and slaughter A change of light, a darker night I saw the last dawn Elder forces around me Of the mortals left behind Lead me again to this shrine The wolves in their midnight speeches Scream my name out loud in torment As they haunt you, haunt you all Forever (so eveil, so dark) The dead scream and writhe In pains they feel post-mortem The throne of thoughts stands This is the end of both fiend and friend --------------------------------------------------------------------------- The Eyes Of The Sun --------------------------------------------------------------------------- My eyes close and I sink From this existence to a point of bliss The silent shadow seems to come my way Now I see Pierced are the eyes of the sun Though I see a black dawn rising For centuries it has given you hope But it is slowly fading Now draining you of life Granting you death, the darkest Life gave you solace but not any more Life only shows you the horror Horror...God¥s own --------------------------------------------------------------------------- A Myth... --------------------------------------------------------------------------- Tonight our endless hunt begins A storm of endless flames The moon, the stars, the killing fields Only the darkest souls will walk this ground Shadows racing through the night Like the hordes of ancient times Grim faces, hearts of stone Armageddon, the final war is on A legion of forgotten souls An army of heathen flesh Riding hellion horses The midnight sky is our home We are possessed, we are immortal We are the torment that you feel Our journey goes through magic moonlight On a path of broken bones On a path of broken bones We are back, forever (chorus: repeat x2) Streams of blood on the frozen snow Howling wolves, in their forest home Torches burning, in a thousand hands As we await our ancestors of the darkly sky Tonight our shadows will fly Tonight the sky will cry Tonight the ravens fly Tonight the final war, the shadow war We are the northern light, against clear black sky With armour of silver and helmets of bone The lifestorm is coming, and will slaughter and kill As our cloven hooves echo forever Through endless forests You are haunted, you are forlorn --------------------------------------------------------------------------- Dark Poems Author --------------------------------------------------------------------------- Served was his head but still he could see far, far away Their open plains, their open fields Where rivers ran with bloos they lifted his body Drenced in summerian black waters of sin Clipped are the wings of this angel His voice has been silenced Stripped he has been limb from limb The passage lies open, they are all written down word by word their author, lord of cryptic seas Celestian guardian of their tale and scriptures Lead them to the fire burning and they shall grow When all this had been done his sight was still upon them Neither day nor night his eyes would shut
