Souls rising up to heaven Led by the giants, their torches covering the night sky Eerie voices shouting down tremble up the horizon Wrapping the evening glow in countless shades of sorrow Fearing their light go hide yourself Do not look back Escape nearing disaster that’s building up Above the trees Rushing through Shadows of the night covering this dark path Heartbeats to the neck Gasping breath Air from the lungs is stuck in my throat A taste of blood Gazing up Green, red, purple lights flicker across the sky Revealing my trace Dread to enrage the ancient spirits As they will reign according to their almighty wrath Nordlys, hear the sky whistling Draw my wrath upon you They light up the firmament Nordlys shining omen of bane Restless spirits Phantoms will reach down to slice off your head Be afraid, Alerting the ghosts for your punishment, Never dare to speak Valkyries, Attempting to rise again for revenge, Behold their war cry Vibrant arcs, Shine over the arctic ominously, Dance with the moonlight Never dare to whistle wave or sing again Warriors on horseback they’ll be gorgeous, deadly, winged and their desire To erase thy hope with their sword of fire Dread to enrage the ancient spirits As they will reign according to their almighty wrath The stars will align for your fate will be decided by the servants of Yggdrasil Nordlys, hear the sky whistling Draw my wrath upon you They light up the firmament Nordlys shining omen of bane Restless spirits Phantoms will reach down to slice off your head Crimson presence Enlight the starry heaven Only answered With whispers by the living Giants fire up their wooden torches Leading the souls of the deceased over the abyss I am fire, bringer of doom I am fire, portent of war I am fire, light up the heaven I am fire, bringer of dawn, son of the moon

The chained-up body is rotting in a prison Frostbite, skin turning black as it falls from the limbs Ancient gods sentenced for eternity Crooked judge, a thousand years spent in isolation Abandoned and trapped, hidden from the sight of the world Sharpened stones are grinding into the skin The iron mask is pushing rusty spikes into the face Blackened vultures circling, purple blood runs down the chin Crush me, burn me, deliver me from pain A crown of thorns decorating the skull The purple blood runs down the chin Thin air poisoning my curse ridden helpless mind Eternal circle, every day is living hell in this world False idols perishing to the masses Filled up with haughtiness and pride Degenerate and viciousness The cries of pain howled through the hall They get drunken with power, again and again Serve your sentence, shackled to a mountain summit As the sky will break open Kneel before the graveside of forgotten kings Shiver to the power of forgotten kings Of forgotten kings Wine tastes like salty water Bread tastes like rotten flesh As the sun and the moon rise and set Eagles nourish from my guts Pecking their beaks in my flesh A river of blood streaming down the glaciers Hands go numb and fingers lost Never-ending torment Runes are carved into the crumbling stone below my feet Read the words, bite my tongue, spitting blood upon the snow Bow my head, icy hail Please lord take my hand and save my soul Rot in hell As they announce the final judgement Verdict was spoken by the gods Hammer has fallen Embrace Armageddon My hollowed soul died in the face of the holy mother Serve your sentence, shackled to a mountain summit As the sky will break open Kneel before the graveside of forgotten kings Shiver to the power of forgotten kings Of forgotten kings

Es färbt sich schwarz das Licht der Nacht Ein letzter Strahl mich trifft Mein größter Feind mein eigner Geist Schatten im Haupt ein Gift Ein Schleier dicht sich um mich hüllt Es Odem und Kraft mir raubt Harter Boden elend weich Mein Licht es nun ertaubt

Nature is sleeping, buried under ice Listen to the winter forest, can’t you hear there’s no life Like a symphony, to all those fallen stars Cheerful the voices, echoes in the past As I wander the pathway, to the frozen sky I can’t see my footsteps, have I already died The sun made me blind Vision starts fooling me I am drifting away Imprisoned in this endless dismay Everything that once shined bright Is covered in the sand of time No leaves left on the tree of life No destination will I still arrive Frostbite burns I just realized there is no turning back No feelings, no hope, and no fear My mind is driven to a point of insanity Everything means nothing in this fog of equilibrium Take me to the other side Where cold is warm and all dead alive I see myself lying on the cold forest floor Be one with nature and will be no more Into the night, I fly away I spread my wings and fade away My mortal being left behind As stars align in crimson skies Everything that once shined bright Is covered in the sand of time No leaves left on the tree of life No destination will I still arrive Everything that once shined bright Is covered in the sand of time No leaves left on the tree of life Ascend from hell to paradise.
