02. Aesis Lilim
Stone-white fortress of flowers of steel
Ancient home it is for strangest of kin: Silent warriors Lilim of name, Fierce with weapons, solemn are in their faith. All-Mother, the eldest, the wise, Daughters, quick of hand, with steel in their eyes Sweet Grand-daughters, to be taught the Code Grand-Sons, in eight-of-years must go on their own Judge not Speak not, lest for true reason Lie not Deceive not May truth alone leave your lips Be wise Be strong Respect all, trust but Self Each one to Her own Always keep your own counsel Stone-white fortress of flowers of steel Ancient home is for strangest of kin: Aesis Lilim, her path long and true Fought beside the heroes far-known and pure. Remembering the words of All-Mother that day When she was to be a Lily at last "Tell us now what is to be your name May you hold our Code pure-hearted and fast" And always, always allow each soul to walk its own path She is sorry for those she hurt She regrets the ones she killed. She is tired of being strong, She is tired of all the fighting Given the choice She would not undo what She did She would not undo what She is... But the blade had two edges: The one that hurt For the one that did the hurting Her body is broken Her spirit yearns to rest. She is Aesis Lilim And she is coming home. Stone-white fortress of flowers of steel Ancient home is for strangest of kin: Aesis Lilim, her path and hard Fought and fell in nameless battle so far. No before me I see my journey's end No before me lies the Reckoning Day Aesis Lilim, this is my name At long last I will come home to remain. 03. Seawitch And The Sorcerer
In maelstrom magical
In winds unnatural Through pounding waves Little fighting ship goes flying Fury fills the sky with flame Strange currents, sailor-bane: Beware! for thou hast angered a foe terrifying. Grim-eyed, they face then: odds are not even- Sea-Witch, come here and tame the raging oceans! This craft of night skies, woman-secrets changing tides- Better have some use or the sea will swallow all of us. "These winds I've raised shall throw you under, None shall pass, there's no safe harbour. This is the price of angering me, You and yours shall never safe be." "Oh, Who drifts on the moody waters, who takes to the lady sea..." Oh, Who thinks himself worthy, a hero, justified to bring misery..." Heed to this... "Take this to heart and be warned: Behold the rules of eldest battle." ...Beware for your soul... "Two times magick, three times loss, For every spell bares caster's essence--" ...For I feel the shape of you... In your spell your soul is open, Power equals pure surrender ...Who is this little creature? In this spell he tastes your deepest, In these winds the shape of your soul. Behind every flying wave, between every drop of rain Little witch now reaches knitting her web of magic. In malestrom magical, in winds unnatural They see- a path of calm and silence opens. None asked, none answered: no questions, onward! Once more our path is clear for the quest of justice. Onward with defiance, on, raise your spirits, Fear not, for we have Moon-magicks on our side. Cause so great, your cause so holy- Stay and suffer your quest is folly. Name me monster, name me tyrant- You know nothing, you bright-eyed defiant! High above floating in full abandon, Hiding from the Sorcerer's eye. Hardly seen, hardly even sought? In silent Night she scatters her mind. And her eyes widen And her soul is taken with awe. In the winds she Suddenly hears the most familiar call: "Oh my... ...He has my name" 04. The Visitor
"Brother, oh brother! I saw such strangeness,
A man, a creature of unearthly kindness. Of such stories he told, such places, Fates and fights and the future's dangers.." My sister-where ever have you been Why the fever, what claim you have seen? This is senseless, a rambling daydream, End the riddles, keep in mind what Elders tell us! Strange creatures fly between the world, Neither ghosts, nor mortal spirits Kind or malicious, we do not know. Maybe this is what you witnessed. But the hour seems unreal He asked me to leave, he asked me to follow With him to other fields beyond... Beyond the ones I ever will know Stronger in these dull fields Would surely not go unnoticed. Poor girl, you must have dreamed him In your lonely moments. Had you left with him, had you followed, Where would we have found you? Fallen dead at the end... ...But with a smile on your face? Strange creatures fly between the worlds, Neither ghosts, nor mortal spirits Kind or malicious, we do not know. I know what I have witnessed! But the hour seems unreal He asked me to leave, and I will follow With him to other fields beyond... Beyond the ones I ever will know Come full moon, I shall leave and follow Blessed or cursed by him, true or shallow Seeker of truth, may your courage lead me! Bringer of light, wait for me, you light I shall see... Cry not for me for I must go... 05. Manalan Vartija

Tuonelan tuulet menneitä kaikuja kantaa Manalan majoilta kaukaisten taistojen aaveet huutaa Portit Manalan? Kuinka vois ne teitä kiinnostaa? Niit' ei kukaan halua nähdä ennen aikojaan. Velhoin työtä Moinen, nuo olmit kirjoineen, Loitsuineen, heidän pelkään päästänsä seonneen. Tuonelan tuulet menneitä kaikuja kantaa Manalan majoilta kaukaisten taistojen aaveet huutaa Menneen rakkauden muistot pimeästä nousee Tuonelan varjoissa odottavat hylätyt, kuolleet Pimeästä nousee...

Tuoppein'nostelulaulu
Hail to the King,
Hail to the Queen Hail to the House, maidens and squires. One for the Sun, One for the Moon, One for every star in the sky! Drink for the living, Drink for the dead Drink for the Keepers of Otherworld. Hail to the Elven Hail to the dwarfs: Hail to the goblins - hell to the arches! Drink for the fire, Drink for the cold: Drink for the Winter's Frost Father old. Drink for Spring, (Let's) drink for Her, for sweet Thighs of Eostre and Sun's return. Hail to my left foot, Hail to your right. Hail to the Mighty One in the Middle. Drink for the ladies - Ah! indeed... Also (one) to some very special sheep. Toinen mulle kaatakaa, malja meille nostakaa, Tänä yönä pimeys meitä väistää! Hullun lailla tanssikaa, lailla hullun naurakaa, Huomispäivä jos ees nousee, ken voi titää! Lailla juopuneiden jumalten, viinin hengen, humalten, Vaaraa, pimeyttä hurmio uhmaa. Kuolema voi odottaa, unhdus - ket' kiinnostaa? On lyhyt elontie, siis pitäkäämme hauskaa! One for the Fallen, one for the Pure One for the Wicked and one for the True. Drink to the virgins! Drink to the whores, (Drink) to all blessed mothers and all their chores. One for you, Sire! One for me own, One for you all and one for... Drink for the ceiling, Drink for the floor, (For) all between and much much more! 07. Chant Of The Winged One
Eternal fire inside me,
Restless darkness shadowing my heart. Claws of thousand demons, My insides ripper apart. I am soon to release the pain, No sanity left to refrain the desire. Endless whispers of the winged one, I can't deny my lust to feed. Free to do by their will, Still trapped behind the mask of deceiver In their mindless thirst for chaos. No one can see the truth, Though would we even care? We are to diminish 'til we are none. The scent of your sweet flesh and blood, Ore than enough to awake the thirst. Seek shelter and you better hide good, There is no turning back, no hope for you. Free to do by their will, Still trapped behind the mask of deceiver In their mindless thirst for chaos. No one can see the truth, Though would we even care? We are to diminish. The world as you know it will be no more... The age of the winged one shall begin. One human, now something much more, Blessed with power and life immortal. Kneel before me and you shall see, Your death more quick and less painful. Free to do as they are told Still trapped in the cage of the deceiver. In his mindless thirst for chaos. Yes they can see the truth, But there's little they can do. They are to obey until they are none. 08. Of Betrayal
Beyond the gates of no return,
Behind the curtains that will rise no more. Lie the fields of no mortal, The land covered by mist and darkness. There's no twilight to show the path for the lost one, No stars to guide his way. This is my path, this is where I belong, Here shall I roam forevermore. The hand that led me here, Was none else's but the one I trusted. That trust is no more, nor it matters, Your betrayal I will return by the hardest. The wounds already healed, as f they never existed, But too deep are the cuts of the blade of your betrayal. Upon the ones you've ever known I'll lay my curse And by the death of them I'll gain, gain my revenge. I will gain my revenge, Gain my revenge, I will gain my revenge, My revenge. Beyond the gates of no return, Behind the curtains that will rise no more. Lie the fields of no mortal, The lands covered by mist and darkness. There's no twilight to show the path for them, No stars to guide their way. This is now their domain (our domain), The lands they will roam forevermore. Under these clouds that will not fade, In this eternal cold and silence, Beyond the gates of eternity I proudly wander Among all the ones you've ever cared for. The wounds already healed, as if they never existed, But too deep are the cuts of the blade of your betrayal. Upon the ones you've ever known I'll lay my curse And by the death of your loved ones I'll gain my... Upon the ones you've ever known I'll lay my curse And by the death of them I'll gain my revenge. 09. Desolation: White Wolf
Flight of the ravens, scent of the snow,
I wish, my brother I could bring to you. You never spoke great words of peace, You were the thing in your silent kindness. For all those who would hurt you: I wish I could have taken this blow for you. For all those who hurt you: I wish it had been my blood instead of you. Now must I leave you here in this bitter silent desolation? Into this world of the hollow winds, into this gray (and) leafless winter day. Craving for the blood that shed yours, we leave you, abandon you, Sweet brother, sleep in this land of mist and snow. As if never there - the heat of battle and the agony of our loss. Gray skies, hollow winds, wet snow covers our struggles, triumphs - gentle, pitiless. Let the tide turn, let oceans shift. Wolf-mother, rise avenge my love. Let the new era of vengeance begin. My angel is fallen, my kindness is lost: I tell you, the age of love is over, I tell, your crime shall find you: I tell you - White Wolf shall drink your blood on the grave of her love. 10. Veljet
Kuun kierron kuudes hetki
Pimeys valon voittanut Yö päivää pidempi Aurinko mailleen laskenut Lapsi uusi ilmaa hengittää Poika nuorempi kuninkaan Niin prinssi uusi kastetaan Veri rohkea suonissa virtaa Vaan on vanhempi veljistä tuskissaan Hänen paikkaansa poikako uhkaa Polttaa kehdon kauneimman Jää jäljelle pelkkää tuhkaa Ei prinssiä kehdosta löydy Ei poika tuhkassa makaa Ei onnistu veljeään tappamaan Ei kadonnut uhkaava vaara Niin vaihtuvat päivät ja vaihtuvat viikot Veljistä vanhempi vahvistuu Pian miekkaa käteensä sovittaa Oman veitsen vyöllensä saa On nuorempi veljistä kahden Täyden kymmenen vanhempi saavuttaa Vie hän veljensä metsään synkkään Yhä syvemmälle johdattaa Juurella suuren tammen Hän veitsensä kohottaa Mut ei pysty hän veljeään surmaamaan Vaan vaaroihin katoaa Yksin metsässä vaeltaa Ilman opastajaa Ei löydä hän polkua pelastavaa Ei kotia milloinkaan Yksin hän pimeässä harhailee Yksin hän kivellä itkee Vasta kahden, ei selviä omillaan Liekö pedot hänet huomanneet Pian edessään näkee hän silmät Tulen liekkien lailla ne leiskuvat On peloissaan poika onneton Kun nälissään sudet ulvovat Harmaa kaapu päällään Sauva puinen kädessään Puiden lomasta ilmestyy Luokse prinssin mies vanha Tämä druidi metsän kivisen Vie pojan nuoren muassaan Vaan on prinssi vieläkin peloissaan Sillä tiedä ei kohtaloaan 11. Where Hope And Daylight Die
Still here I wake and I think of you
I see you far away Answer my call Can you hear my voice I hear you For we are gone and forever lost Broken here I lie Beneath the shadow sink Where daylight dies I wake for you In better lands the sun may shine And green leaves on trees spring Their opening and blossoming But here the raven sing But still I stand and think of Days when grass was green And my heart was so young They 've never been Past Forever lost |
