The Spirit of Ukko Music & lyrics | Mikko Salovaara Arrangement | Kiuas Greetings, we are here tonight To bring the flames of Ukko to your hearts On this black night the stars are aligned, These ancient Fireworks play their parts Born from the dark to light a flame What once had died shall rise again Winds sweep the snow, resurrecting songs of darkness Born from the cold to light a flame within our hearts Winds sweep the snow, resurrecting songs of darkness Born from the cold, now it's celebration time... ...The spirit of Ukko will burn with us tonight! Let's bring back the good old times When the true gods used to reign the northern skies For centuries they've been away But the memory and spirit still remains

On Winds of Death We Ride Music & lyrics | Mikko Salovaara Arrangement | Kiuas A pure young soul, thrown into this world - Left alone out in the cold A hungry heart burns with the taste for life But wicked is the flesh and fast the seeds of evil grow As temptation waits in shadows of the night We've lit the fuse that slowly burns away our lives Just like the burning bridges we have left behind Cold shadows crawling to devour us from within As the pain eats us slowly from inside On winds of death we ride Feed the hunger that never dies - the flesh needs to be satisfied Although it kills the purity inside Innocence long since torn away, Like beasts we now just seek our prey Accelerating fast towards the grave

No More Sleep for Me Music & lyrics | Ilja Jalkanen Arrangement | Kiuas I went down to the river and what did I see The waters they ran bloody red Ten thousand people all looking at me Wishing that I was dead The sins of my brothers they came down on me I fled for my pleas were in vain There was no pursuit they lacked strength but not hate My conscience was left with a stain Disillusioned and haunted Now there's no sleep for me We have the choice we have the strength Now where's the will I don't know 'bout your cravings But I just can't stand still Memories growing so distant with time No longer do I even care Still, when I wake up the screams in my head Remind me of what I left there

Warrior Soul music & lyrics | Mikko Salovaara arrangement | Kiuas Somewhere within the darkest moors between black cliffs like the devil's teeth a child was born with a warrior's heart son of the stars, of ice and flame he marches with pride in his every step with an iron will and a mind sharp as a demon blade but darkness builds up in his mind as a cold breeze moves across the sky in battle sworn to die he unsheathes the blade with fire in his eyes warrior soul blazes through the land of frost and snow his pagan heart and flesh built to endure the cold warrior soul to the death against all foes he fights he's born under the northern lights deep within the shadows of the woods among the beasts that dwell in the darkness a child was born - a daughter of the night and the rising moon she runs like the wind and in her heart she carries the secret powers of the elders but darkness builds up in her mind as a cold breeze moves across the sky in battle sworn to die she unsheathes the blade with fire in her eyes warrior soul blazes through the land of frost and snow her pagan heart and flesh built to endure the cold warrior soul to the death against all foes she fights she's born under the northern lights solo in the dark we must find our own way though we know the winding path leads to the grave still battles left to fight we must keep our pride until the end of time warrior souls blazing through the land of frost and snow our pagan hearts and flesh built to endure the cold warrior souls to the death against all foes we fight we're born under the northern lights warrior souls blazing through the land of frost and snow our pagan hearts and flesh built to endure the cold warrior souls to the death against all foes we fight we're born under the northern lights we're born under the northern lights

Until We Reach the Shore Music & lyrics | Mikko Salovaara Arrangement | Kiuas The ship of life sets out on its course Sending out a challenge to the gods As the cold black sea waits silently We embark to find our destiny Left alone in the arms of fate The world sees and feels our every move With an open restless mind We leave the first shore behind Surrounded by the voices of the night We struggle on and try not to look behind Washed away by waves of love and hate To be swept around by the hands of fate Dark skies whip me with silver tears The night whispers secrets into my ears Winds blow cold across the raging sea Singing songs of what used to be Anxiously we embrace the storm (Until we reach the shore) Currents flow around me Carrying other souls just like me Drained of strength by the burning sun Frozen by fear of what's to come But one day this journey will greet death And the time will come to leave the deck Birth to death and shore to shore Maybe the journey will begin once more

Thorns of a Black Rose Music & lyrics | Mikko Salovaara Arrangement | Kiuas Passion has enslaved my heart and cursed my soul How could I have known such a beautiful thing could be so cold? I saw something that I'd never seen before A flower so graceful yet cruel invaded my heart with a violent storm Black rose why do you pierce me with your thorns? Black rose for you this poor soul was born Black rose can't you see inside this cold and shattered heart of mine? Black rose you make torture into an art when you drive your thorns right into my heart Passion has enslaved my heart and cursed my soul I should have known better than to touch the thorns of a black rose A dream of two hearts as one almost came to be true But what could have been love was destroyed by the wickedness that lives Inside you

And the North Star Cried Music & lyrics | Mikko Salovaara Arrangement | Kiuas Long ago when the gods were still young and guarded the heavens With might the four furious winds swept across the snows Proud, fearless and free the children of Ukko walked the Earth And at dusk they sang anthems to the welkin and their beloved North Star ...And still she smiled upon the Earth Through these lands of ice the North Star once led our way Now blood covers the frozen ground scarred by an eerie sound as the North Star cries in pain On the darkest of winters evil arrived from across the sea Disguised as a wooden cross -as the coming of salvation Death and destruction they brought and clashes of steel filled the nights And the North Star watched as the blood of her children flowed ...And her tears fell upon the Earth Our fathers' blood was spilled on the ice And the North Star cried in the night Our beloved gods were violently driven to exile Gone are the days of the North Star's reign, Now her tears are all that remain But one day they'll wash the blood away and the spirit that once died Shall rise again!
