We play the songs of darkness With the words of light And we hear the songs of the blade That pierces gentle flesh
The earth with tears crowns itself And trembles while we dance To mischief predicted
Despairing cries highly into the night extend And give us the joys of agony Thus a rage is overwhelming As strongly as the tides We sacrifice fresh blood To our mother Gaia
From veins that pulse as dark and red as a river The Ice trolls invade the earth
We play the songs of darkness With the words of light And we hear the songs of the blade That pierces gentle flesh
The earth with tears crowns itself And trembles while we dance To mischief predicted
