Enslaved Utgard 1. Fires in the Dark "Ór Ymis Holdi Var jörd of sköpuđ, En ór sveita sær, Björg ór beinum, Bađr ór hausi himinn" Inseparable walkers - Through the dark A journey towards the cores From general to singular Weary eyes look to the sky Carrier of the Flame - The emerging morning self Arisen like an alien dawn Chords in a life not yet played Echoes of a past not yet written Memories drawn from dreams of giants The ancient gods told us where to go Mountains told us how to be The fertile Earth told us who we are Fields of long gone presence We will reach the havens The lesser known, deeper path Arisen like an alien dawn Chords in a life not yet played Echoes of a past not yet written Memories drawn from dreams of giants The ancient gods told us where to go Mountains told us how to be In the eye of the storm, we were born We see the fires in the dark English Translation: "Sayings of Grimnir From the body of Ymir Earth was created From his blood became Sea Stone from his bones Bushes from his hair And from his skull the Heavens" 2. Jettegryta The quiet forest Before man came A secret time (before time) Giants’ steps thunder Upon the mossy ground Carving a hole In ageless stone The Fallen Barren walls No escaping this I’ve come to see I will not return Found no solace within My darkened shrine A quiet pulse Impossibly far below The wavelength of gateways Markings felt deep Instinctively alert For the work to be done Maps to the Abyss Words dissolved Voices of eternity No longer divided Everything burns Out of the dark Reshaped existence In the shadow fields 3. Sequence Genome of the secret being Residing in the Shadow-half Hidden words of creation Sought out by the light-bearer Eternal whispers Drops from the Gap An open hand into the Ether Peeling Downwards in Holy Layers Finding the sequence there It opens it all A divine phrase buried deep In cosmic ramblings Cyclic thought patterns Backwards bent cold logic Does not matter If you're Tail or Mouth All Serpent - Chasing the end Chasing the beginning Blood-drawn walls, quantum songs Ecstatic dual peaj, dead-stare distants Animal thirst and Shaman sight War-moon and atom souls Finding the sequence here Opening it all A keep drawn deep within The Chaotic lines of History It is not a secre Being kept from man It is a poem dwelling Within thousand-fold screaming choirs Scaled down and spoken softly The sequence unfolds Utilized for will and power Kept within our hearts and songs 4. Homebound When gold blinds I will see beyond the false torches The howling will guide us Walking the plains between worlds When houses fall I will be the pillar in the hail Unmoving, we travel Crossing oceans in mythological dreams When the chains are broken I will watch the sunset of the gods As we fall, we stand still Revealing secrets of the past When it ends I will know the way to the portal We shall descend again Moving in circular infinity When When gold blinds When houses fall When the chains are broken When it ends 5. Útgarðr Mennesket vert fødd ut or mørkret Så gløymer ho det Han vik unna det Dei lærer å frykta det Me ber det alle med oss Djupt der nede under havet av tanklar Eit uendeleg mørkre Kor jotnnesteg tordnar i eit omvendt kosmos Ei reise mot eit heile tek mennesket hit Så skuggen kan leie, og lysbæraren Lærer å lytte til det som fødte ho Så den nyfødte guden kan finne Eit språk han allereie kjende Saman stig dei oppatt Inn i verda; no av ekte lys Født om att av mørkret English Translation: Mankind is born from darkness Then she forgets it He shrinks away form it They learn to fear it We all carry it within Deep down below; under the sea of thoughts A never-ending darkness Where steps of giants thunder through an inverted cosmos A journey towards wholeness takes mankind here So that the shadow may guide, And the Lightbearer may learn to listen to what gave her birth So that the newborn god may find a language he already knew Together they rise again Into the world; now of true light Born again from darkness 6. Urjotun The Primeval taurus Offspring of passion Born from illusions of time Dawn faced in icy waters Fertilizing dreams of existence Giving birth, awakening gods Breeding love, the glorious eye Blinded by the cosmic eclipse From the ether rain of chaos The mountain rose to power Behind the shadow of creation The jester laughed At the fields of war and pain Dwells the warlord of disillusion Mocking the will to live Strangling lords and kings 7. Flight of Thought and Memory The mourning Self, center of all The Conqueror, weeping upon the throne Seeing all, yet blind to the realm of dreams Ruling all, yet deaf to the roars from within A god of war assembling an army A god of order, trembling in fear The horse master breaches the branches Riding as wisdom unfolds The rune-wielder lurks in the shadows Riding as the giants behold A warrior's farewell to armors and spears A shaman hangs from the gallows pole Seeing all, close to the edge of reason Ruling all, on wings above chasms of madness An eye for the power and glory An eye for the pain and despair By the roots far below The Old One spoke At the core of the earth One shall seek Eyes will be blinded And truths will emerge A flight for the thought A flight for the Memory "Du runer finn teikna og tydde stavar, Mykje store stavar, mykje sterke stavar, Som fimbul-tul farga og høge makter maksla Og Ragna-ropt skar" 'Veit du å riste dei? Veit du å råde dei? Veit du å farge dei? Veit du å freiste dei? Veit du til bøn dei? Veit du til blöt deit? Veit du å sende dei? Veit du å slakte dei?' English Translation: "You find runes drawn and the meaning of staves Very mighty staves, very strong staves, Which the Fimbul-tul colored and high powers shaped And Ragna-ropt carved" 'Do you know how to carve them? Do you know how to council them? Do you know how to tint them? Do you know how to test them? Do you know how to summon them? Do you know how to surrender them? Do you know how to send them? Do you know how to stop them?' 8. Storms of Utgard Eyes of a stranger behold Unreal yet home Hagalaz -Hai Perched High Above Sheltered from the storms Oddly familiar An implosion of swale Thurisaz - Thui Paths through the landscape Yet to be found Hagalaz - Hai Beckons him on Through darkness and beyond The long journey home The Storms of Utgard Beckons him on Realms of outer truths Through the nightside and below The long journey home 9. Distant Seasons Two dreams, under the quiet sun Ended long ago, and just begun Moments gone eternally Time is cosmic vanity Preserved in folded spaces vast No distance between "if" and past Now that I am hunting shadows Know that this is the way I chose I need the light you spawn We will live an endless dawn Moments gone eternally Time is cosmic vanity Preserved in folded spaces vast No distance between "if" and past
