The Harper And The Devil
04:42
|
|
||
Here, no need to fear
Sit, an offer you will hear, listen
Learn, her heart you´ll earn
Burn, your arms will burn
Once an early morning a young man walks by a creek
With her in mind he plays his harp until he hears a shriek
Scared he finds an old man with a fiddle black and sleek
You can learn to be the best if that is what you seek
Hear, and learn how to ensnare, the sound all fear
Learn, because life is never fair. Your goal is near
Learn, the old and evil ways. Her heart you´ll earn
Burn. Yes you will take my place. Your hands will burn
Once they played together on the old ensnaring song
they were stuck forever for the spell became too strong
The old man could not foresee that they could not stop to play
and if you listen you can hear them even to this day

Fear Of The Gods
04:57
|
|
||
Far, far away on the uncharted sea
there´s an island where no one can ever be free
to explore or to dream of a world outside
for the brave who have tried have not ever survived
Scared were the gods.
Their weakness denied them the rights to explore,
to sail all the seas and to live in freedom, learn in wisdom,
their minds in chains, now trapped by fear of the gods.
Far, far beneath on the vast ocean floor
sleeps a gatekeeper who has the lock to the door
and the ones who set sail, who believe it´s all lies,
they will tremble in fear when it roaring shall rise
A brave soul sets sail, she is far out to sea.
Far beneath lies a horror in sleep,
and when it wakes the waves will grow and she´ll know why
the gods will smile when she´s dragged to the deep.
They have made their choice, and so they sealed their own fate
Defy the gods, and they will answer in hate
Eternity, and they will die while they wait
Forever locked, the beast will guard by the gate

Draugens Hämnd
06:35
|
|
||
I detta ögonblick ska jag ta vad som rättfärdigt är mitt då livet mig lurat.
Ingen ser när draugen ler när ingen ser tar draugen mer
Med avund i ögon, i döden jag klär, tiden har kommit och hämnden är här
Draugen får och draugen mår och ingen når vart hän han går
I kärr fick jag ruttna tills döden mig bar.
En pakt blev sen sluten då själen blev kvar.
Som död får jag vandra tills hämden jag tar
En tjänst hos den onde av skulden jag har
Morgonsolen strålar ner och mörkret flyr
Hämnden är den kärlek som nu åter gryr
En vinternatt så leds jag ut för livets rand
Av samme man som nu ska ta din hand
(du ska se att jag finns)
I detta ögonblick tar ni varandra i nöden och lusten tills döden er lurat?
Ingen ser när draugen ler när ingen ser tar draugen mer
Tiden har kommit, ditt liv i mitt våld, I kärr ska du ruttna där själen blev såld.
Hämnden har kommit, hos Hel ska du bo, den onde jag tjänar men själen har ro.

Ghost Of The Sea
06:25
|
|
||
Lone she stands by the shoreline, the sky dark and grey
For years she waits for her loved ones while memories fade
The fear she have of drowning keps her bound from where she died before
In the mist her cries are heard as her spirit haunts the shore
Carried by death to a pale and desolate shore
The fear of drowning keeps her bound from where she died before
Lone she walks on the seabed, the deep dark and cold
It was death who felt compassion, and one day she was told
Far across the sea you´ve been missed, you´ve been mourned
Go back into the waves, you will find what has been torned
Stranded by death on a pale and desolate shore
The fear of drowning keeps her bound from where she died before
She steps into the water with a haunting cry
For years her spirit wanders, the ocean floor
Lone she stands by the shoreline, the sky bright and clear
For years she’ve waited for her loved ones, with nothing but fear
Far across the sea, there the peace you seek will be
Through the crashing waves, her mothers voice she hears
Guided by death from a pale and desolate shore
The fear of drowning kept her bound from where she died before
In peace she stands by the shoreline, far across the sea
The fear of drowning kept her bound, but death would set her free
She walked into the waves, and escaped eternity
For years her spirit wandered, A ghost of the sea
She walked into the waves, and escaped eternity
For years her spirit wandered, A ghost of the sea

Midnattsfesten
04:59
|
|
||
Midnattsfest i skogens djup där alla har samlats igen framåt sommartidens slut.
Ingen människa sover, alla samlas sjunger skrämda på en psalm som dränks av skogens tjut
Timmen sen i blekvitt sken, med väsen som ljuder i sång nu när månen lyser upp.
Inget väsen sover, i sämja samlas festar offrar alla skogens väsen vid ett stup
Nu, högt den står i sitt valv, enade står troll och alv, dunkel flyr nattens bal, skimmer i skogens sal när en fridfull skrud i gläntans horg bärs av var bjuden gäst
Och vi minns när vi delade fat, innan ni fylldes med hat, ni som gjort era val, oss du skyr –nattens kval men bland glädjens ljud finns även saknad på var midnattsfest.

Fejden På Vitterstråket
04:24
|
|
||
Genom skog och snår
Snirkligt vitterstråket går
Kvar i samma spår
Som vi gått i alla år
När vi dalen når
Fäbodvall i vägen står
i vägen står
Vi svär att det ej ska bli vår
Ej vår förrän vi vårt stråk återfår
vårt stråk återfår
Genom skog och berg fram till en dal
Nu ska fäbodsfolk få lida kval
Varje får i stråket där vi går, vi dolda tar. Inget blir kvar
Rövas bort till tredje dagen, brutna är nu låsbeslagen
Sjukdom, svält och sorg, kval är allt som ni snart har.
I dagar tre blir du lamslagen, handen din ska ej va tvagen
Gikt, och löss i hår
Lungsot, flen och öppna sår
Men snart de bättre mår
Åter är hälsa och får

The Mountain Gnome
06:27
|
|
||
On the windy mountainside
Watch closely and you will see something hide
Deeper the tunnels go
Follow me to see what´s down below
Deeper into the ground, something makes a sound
Somewhere alone, lives a gnome
All he loved, turned to bone.
This has always been home
All he ever has known
but now when time has hunted him down
we meet his eyes when he lays down his crown
When the mountain top is white
He’s the last of the gnomes to believe this is right
Soon there´ll be a storm
Great machine makes the mountain warm
Old dust starts to burn
Gearwheels starts to turn
When the day has turned to night
He’s old and one day he won´t see the morning light.
The stories weren’t lies
Wintegrim will see, when all its people freeze and dies.
You see..
The gnome has lost its kin
Killed by the men of Wintergrim
