lyrics

In the Circle of the Elders

The peaks of the distant mountains
Are painted in crimson color
In the shadow
Of the mighty giants
Tucked the low hills

Winds of Ostara throw
The snow from the trees
And carried the sound
Of far quiet singing

Voices from the mounds
Where Elders
Of our folk rest

Faces of great voivods
And beautious goddessess
Covered by a waxy pallor
Withered wreaths at their heads,
Swords and staffs at their feet
Under the ground
All entrances are sealed
To the mounds

Only custody torches
Burn in overnight,
And around them dancing
The chains of black shadows

Night carefully keeps there
The true greatness
Of the former light
In the starry bright night
When Ostara freed
From captivity
The gates are opening

Shining columns
Of the ghosts
Walking from behind the Veil

Bright ancient shields
And helmets
Old blades
Are still sharp
As were
Many ages ago

In the circle of the Elders
The gray-haired king
With icy eyes,
Hands me the relic of my folk
The old sword,
Which I take
With true reverence

Rows of noble maidens
And harsh warriors
Stood in honorable silence

Cold stream of winds
Ran from cemeteries
Ice cold breath of wraith
Enveloped my face

My vision cleared,
I'm standing alone
In the darkness and fog,
All vanished like
An obsession,
Like never been
Only woods were stained
In twilight of the dawn
