Tales, Ale and Fire
This track is instrumental.
We steel away into the night I hope this never ends Together dancing around the fire to the sounds of folk and an enticing carousel So come my beauty Follow me into the night Door de bossen van mijn Vlaanderen Voor altijd een plaats in m'n hart But why are we here In this oppressed land See the landscape once so glorious now dominated by wreaths of smoke See my house built for children and wife Now totally destroyed So... Come with me, fight with me or flee with me to the higher North Come with me, defend with me the place where we ever lived I'm not making plans to give this away this mournful beauty So... Come with me, fight with me or flee with me to the higher North Come with me, defend with me the place where we ever lived

Low, my children, what do I see? Your brothers and sister on the warpath Forgiven are all your earthly sins Make way for honour and valour in your soul What is this, this run we’re on A race known as the human one Many have died and many have killed Innocent blood is remorselessly spilled Our land is beseeched by conflict Far in the distance blow the horns of war Travel beyond the mountains of peril With faith and courage in your heart The party is weary Long days and nights take their toll The howling winds are beckoning The earth trembles beneath their feet The last sun sets and the fire roars A banquet, a feast for all and eye to see Tonight we pray to all the gods of lore With open eyes and heart we accept our fate Drenched in blood, so will be our fatherland In moonlight the battlefield lies beckoning Hark, my brethren, lend me your ears Today, on the battlefield we face our destiny Yonder, over the mountains in the east A new day is dawning, a day of reckoning March over the meadows, march over the plains Over the hills and far away With raised spirits and sword in hand Onwards to battle, onwards to war

The forests echo with prayers in the night The sound of grinding is heard We breathe the silence before the storm awaiting the final word we are ready for war… Dulce et decorum est pro patria mori we’re fighting for our people who are yearning to be free The great halls of Walhalla, free me from this earthly maze no escape from Odin’s everlasting gaze Surrender now, we don’t have to fight Turn back now, we don’t have to die The sun opens my drowsy eyes, the wind breathes in my face I’d rather lie here in the grass, in this peaceful place Battle orders from above, come from the powers that be I’ll fight till death and show these dogs we Vikings never flee. Death and destruction, we’ll reap the whirling wind I’ll close my eyes and think not of this war we’re fighting in Behold our godly might We’ll bring Thor’s Hammer down United we stride and make a stand Before we rest down in the ground Behold their mind’s dark endless Mankind has ceased to be Invaders, usurpers, leave now from this land! Take heed, boy, your feeble words cannot relinquish you from death War’s the only tongue you understand, so that is it shall be…

Te krakend ende vermorzelend voer ik strijd Voor het vaderland Het breken van de dageraad Roept om bloed Door wil en macht, verbreekt de band! Al hier is mijn eind Hier ga ik dood Ik vecht tegen tijd (mijn) Lot is verloot De zon verblindt mijn ogen Door zijn schild Al flitsend streeft het zwaard Recht naar mijn hart! Fortuna wenkt mij naar haar zij De grillen van’t lot zijn ondoorgrondelijk Fatum’s marionet! De weg des levens Is bezaaid met verleiding en zonde Geboden, verboden, autocratie Wijkt niet of ge gaat ten onder! De waarheid zij verdoemd Tot in de eeuwigheid! Ge gaat ende staat waar ge wilt, Vrije wil is een illusie. Wij zijn allen met elkaar verbonden, Verdoemd, zelfs voor en na de dood! De noordenwind brengt mij weer tot leven. De klaagzang van verwrongen metaal Weerklinkt in de holtes van mijn geest. Stijg op met de eerste zonnestraal. De geur van bloemen en (de) feestschalmei Dringt door (en) dan realiseer ik mij De zinnen van’t leven, als ramenscherven Komen nog samen, nog voor ik ga sterven. Voor mijn vaderland wil ik sterven

As I hold my breath With my hand on my heart I face the wind Carrying your scent, tearing me apart I gaze at the landscape For a sign of life I close my eyes As I reach for my knife Come my friend, fight no more Free yourself from this tortured life My blade, shimmering in the sun Bringer of light Sits poised in my hand Feeling my might As it turns, gleaming, flashing I look to the sky Freedom awaits me So I must die Come my friend, give up now Free yourself from this tortured life Falling, spiralling down Descending into madness Deciding my own fate Leaving this world of hate behind Far away, I hear an echo An angels voice is calling me Carried on the whispering winds It reaches me before my blade A song flies through the valley In my mind I recognize A familiar chant, so close to me I cannot fathom this impossibility Is this real Or is it a dream I hear my beloved call Shall I yet be redeemed? Hope on the horizon As I hold my breath Though I can’t see my love I no longer choose death The fool! He fails to see My gift of immortality I shall make him understand Or I shall burn his fatherland Freedom! I will not die! You will now die!

Door hebzucht verjaagd En dorpen belaagd Zitten we hier In deze herberg Waar niemand ons had verwacht Bij de gloed van ‘t vuur en gerstenat Het komt wel goed, dat zei je Maar mensen zijn verhangen Huizen verbrand Een plaats van verlangen Door dood overmand Hoor de lier, de luit De schalmei Dans toch mee, dans mee met mij Want ik blijf hier Met m’n gerstenat Ja, ik blijf hier M’n beste vriend Laat al onze zorgen bezinken En je stem weer klinken Neem m’n hand Alleen wij twee Bij de gloed van ‘t vuur en gerstenat Nu het gelach verdwijnt En de stilte traag verschijnt ‘t Ontwaken van de dagen Dronken als we zijn Ver weg van het venijn
