ELUVEITIE LYRICS

1. Ategnatos

On the winnow fields
They beheld the gate
Trembling with fear
And afraid to forfeit
Anxiously
They clinged to table scrabs
As if to aver
Their deprivation

And the swine crowed round
The shining lot of pearls

With empty hands
The high king reigns
Nothing but light
The raven flies

A fool is the slave
Who fears not his fetters
But watches over them with jealousy

On the winnow fields
They beheld their lives
Paralysed with fear
In the presence of the Vergobret
So they cherished
Doctrines of denial
And wallowed
In poor men's tales

And the swine crowed round
The shining lot of pearls
Just like the vultures
Grave cadaveric flesh

With empty hands
The high king reigns
Nothing but light
The raven flies

With empty hands
The high king reigns
Nothing but light
The raven flies

3. Deathwalker

In distress, chased and locked in stalemate
Into the cauldron, to embrace eclipse
And inhale the harrowing
Withering, the sear flesh and blood
Elapsed is the momentary host
Limp, the broken will, worn down the last stand

Extinction!
Extinction!

And I soar up high into the haven
Of the starless night
Borne by black wings of dawn
I fly away from the bygone
As I crossed alone
The gold turned into dead stone
And I did not look back
Nor did I mourn

At the gate in a place between dimensions
I swathed myself, to embrace eclipse
And to sink into the void
And I chased through the nightly brake
Unseen, shot through icy streams
High above the crowns and down into the dark

And I soar up high into the haven
Of the starless night
Borne by black wings of dawn
I fly away from the bygone
As I crossed alone
The gold turned into dead stone
And I did not look back
Nor did I mourn

(Aidus esti - io gnātā uer axsin
Bitous uertassit in uextlon)
On this bridge so narrow
The shoddy rags fell off me
Robed in nakedness I entered the gate

Deathwalking o'er the searing bridge
At the time between the times
I witness and herald
We do not perish but only slough

And I soar up high into the haven
Of the starless night
Borne by black wings of dawn
I fly away from the bygone
As I crossed alone
The gold turned into dead stone
And I did not look back
Nor did I mourn

4. Black Water Dawn

At the gloaming shore, neither sea nor land
The heaving immeasurable darkness ahead
Moonlit the stannic waves swell up and threat
And the nightly breeze is calling my name

I gaze into the night, as if I could see
No land in sight but a voracious deep
I resign myself onto the barque
To set sail to perdition, a fate so dark

Can you feel them, can you see them
The green hills, the silver stream
Can you not see the newborn sky, the auburn sun
You are so near the sun of the dawn

Across the waves of the fever sea
The lashing billows hurling curses at me
Bawling the cormorant mouths open wide
Snatching and gnawing, bane at my side

Deathwards the ferry glides across the waters so deep
To the foul land, athwart the venomous sea
Resistance worn down and a broken will
A crippled heart, sense come to nil

Can you feel it, can you hear it
The oaks song, the raven's call
Can you not see the newborn sky, the auburn sun
You are so near the sun of the dawn

Can you feel them, can you see them
The green hills, the silver stream
Can you not see the newborn sky, the auburn sun
Can you not see the sun of the dawn
You are so near tir' jovincon

5. A Cry In The Wilderness

In beauty pristine
The nexus is concealed
In the blackbirds ornate songs
Lo, it is revealed
Clandestine in the oaks
Majestic crown
By an ordinary act
Of kindness it is known

In the burden of distress
There is an urging call
In the unexpected chance
A beckon from Lugus' hall
In the bliss of true love
There is foreboding
And in suffering
Oneiric revealing

The endless knot
At twilight's call
Pervading the vastness of being

The fingerprints of Antumnos
Are everywhere around us
The sun of the night is shining so bright
On all we could see
The umbilical cord
Hark, it reaches down into the dark
The sun of the night is blazing so bright

The fire primal born from Antumnos
Perpetually burning in the omphalos
Was made flesh and dwelt among us
Full of truth and grace

The book lies open
The gateways are calling
The echoes ring out
The words are heard

The fingerprints of Antumnos
Are everywhere around us
The sun of the night is shining so bright
On all we could see
The umbilical cord
Hark, it reaches down into the dark
The sun of the night is blazing so bright

Aidus esti-io gnata uer axsin bitous
Uertassit in uextlon

The fingerprints of Antumnos
Are everywhere around us
The sun of the night is shining so bright
On all we could see
The umbilical cord
Hark, it reaches down into the dark
The sun of the night is blazing so bright

6. The Raven Hill

Foretold, the three blest fires
Burning in the darkness
Forebode, the arrival
Of the ones in distress
Ailing yet proud
The children of Antumnos
Foregone, the raving flight
Of the black harbingers

From the north they came once been in chains
They have cast off their crushing yoke
And they will be a beacon of light
To the glory of the ancient one

Here on the raven hill
The monument was built
None shall ever forget
And the sacrifice no one shall regret

Ōrō, suavelos atrebin

Foretold, the arrival
Of Lugus' kingly ravens
Foregone
The unleashing of the awen
Shining now, but forlorn once
Is the noble daughter of the sun
For all eyes to see behold
'Tis ogmios' august legacy

None shall ever forget
And the sacrifice no one shall regret

Ōrō, suavelos atrebin
Ōrō, suavelos atrebin
Ōrō, suavelos atrebin

7. The Silvern Glow

[Instrumental]

8. Ambiramus

Somewhere afar
A cry rang out
Wondrous words echoing
In my restless heart

A call I heard
In three different tongues
Of such awing majesty
Soft and silently
Whispering my name
I could not oppose

And so I set out into the unknown
I spread my arms to fall...

Ambiramus
Cicinxiet mon textā
Cover me in your darkest shelter
Ad magos meldíās
Ambiteixtū ad tīros íovincon

I have lost control
And drift afar
Into a darkness arcane
All that I've known
Blurred into a pale
And distant memory

And so I set out into the unknown
I spread my arms to fall...

Ambiramus
Cicinxiet mon textā
Cover me in your darkest shelter
Ad magos meldíās
Ambiteixtū ad tīros íovincon

And I spread my arms to fall...

Ambiramus
Cicinxiet mon textā
Cover me in your darkest shelter
Ad magos meldíās
Ambiteixtū ad tīros íovincon

Ambiramus
Cicinxiet mon textā
Cover me in your darkest shelter
Ad magos meldíās
Ambiteixtū ad tīros íovincon

9. Mine Is The Fury

With insatiable hunger the godsent avengers
They feed on the volatile and evanescent
Raving across the face of the Earth
Cheering the gods in untamed frenzy

Feel the bite of the flames, cathartic firestorm
The seas of flames dance in ecstasy
See the billows smother cleansing away
Pruning of all filth

Voracious blaze
Engulf and erase
In one colossal feast

O deep blue flood
Roar your symphonia
Until there's nothing left

Like a relentless wolverine the ravenous unleashed
The blood-red swarm is devouring
Inferno divine
Revelling in sanctity

Voracious blaze
Engulf and erase
In one colossal feast

O deep blue flood
Roar your symphonia
Until there's nothing left

Mine is the fury
In my hands is justice
I bring atonement
And herald a new dawn
I ring the knell
I bring to life
I am the healing
I am the erasing

I am the beginning
I am the end

The end

With insatiable hunger the godsent avengers
They feed on the volatile and evanescent
Raving across the face of the Earth
Cheering the gods in untamed frenzy

Feel the weight of the waves, the cleansing storm surge
The invincible shall pacify
The wheel shall turn as it is foretold
Exult and rejoice

Voracious blaze
Engulf and erase
In one colossal feast

O deep blue flood
Roar your symphonia
Until there's nothing left

10. The Slumber

Step by step
We trudge on
On this scarlet road
Adrift and immured
Keen and uncured
Grimly walking the will of the one

One foot in front of the other one
On this steep road paved with our blood
Step by step we march a long walk
And breath by breath we just plough on

And I long to wake
Come up for air

But we stagger in slumber
Sleepwalking and lost
The long march we wander
Dreaming of the promised land
And mocked by the death knell at hand

One truth after the other one
Given and served we swallow down
Day by day we drink the blood of our sons
So they will walk this road again

But we stagger in slumber
Sleepwalking and lost
The long march we wander
Dreaming of the promised land
And mocked by the death knell at hand

Whitedreaming
One, two! One, two! Forlorn, march!
Linewalking

Lift your eyes
I can see the light
March on, march on
Lift your eyes
You can see it too
March on voidwards

Lift your eyes
I can see the light
March on, we march on
Lift your eyes
You can see it too
March on voidwards

And I long to wake
Come up for air

But we stagger in slumber
Sleepwalking and lost
The long march we wander
Dreaming of the promised land
But we stagger in slumber
Sleepwalking and lost
The long march we wander
Dreaming of the promised land
And mocked by the death knell at hand

11. Worship

And I saw a beast ascending up of the sea of the West
And the beast whom I saw, was like a colossus
Having a crown with ten teeth, and on the ten teeth the names of blasphemy
And from his mouth ran the blood of men
And a mouth speaking great things and blasphemies and power was given to it
And all men, worshiped it that dwell in earth
Whose ears be not tethered to the divine tongue
If any man can hear, hear he
And I saw another beast ascending up from the abyss
Alike a Taurus, and it had two horns made of gold
And it spake blasphemies and did all the power of the former beast in his sight
And it made the earth and all men dwelling in it
To worship the first beast

RĪGEI SESRONEŪI! RĪGEI SESRONEŪI!
RĪGEI SESRONEŪI! RĪGEI SESRONEŪI!

RĪGEI SESRONEŪI! RĪGEI SESRONEŪI!
RĪGEI SESRONEŪI! RĪGEI SESRONEŪI!

O, come, ye little children
O, come, you one and all
To the mangle come
In my bloodstained realm

Sing glory to me on my throne above you all
Give thanks for nemesis to your golden calf

Like sheep to the slaughter
Like moths to flames

And on your knees
You shall remain
And you shall praise
And fear my name

O, come, ye little children
O, come, you one and all
Come here by me
'Tis your vocation call

Sing glory to your noble saviour and lord
Unshackle the fetters of Ogmios' ploy

Like sheep to the slaughter
Like moths to flames

RĪGEI SESRONEŪI! RĪGEI SESRONEŪI!
RĪGEI SESRONEŪI! RĪGEI SESRONEŪI!

And on your knees (on your knees)
You shall remain (shall remain)
And you shall praise (shall praise)
And fear my name

And on your knees
You shall remain (shall remain)
And you shall praise (shall praise)
And fear my name

I shall lift my face upon thee and give you peace
I shall lift my face upon thee
I shall lift my face upon thee and give you peace
I shall lift my face upon thee

And I saw another beast ascending up from the abyss
And it made the earth and all men...

13. Threefold Death

Will you remember me
Still know my name
When I'm set free?

Is this the way it ends now?
The last thing to see is
The bottom of a fucking cask?

Feeding the crows
Dangling and putrid
In the presence of my own hollowness
Kindling the flames
Scorching and charred
The incarnation of my vainness

What once was believed to be glory
Paled into a scorn, left to derision

Time stood still as I bode the cold iron
And the tendonds coiled around my neck
The carnyx shrill and a world once known
Slowly sank in numbing red

Will you remember me
Still know my name
When I'm set free?

Is this the way it all ends now?
Sense wrest from me
And dignity stripped off it's meaning
A plenary sacrifice

The carnyx shrill and a world once known
Slowly sank in numbing red
The carnyx roared twice and once more
Afore pervasively
The raven's call rang out

Will you remember me
Still know my name
When I'm set free?
Will you still bide awhile
At the great rock
In the evening light?

Will you remember me
Still know my name
When I'm set free?
Will you still bide awhile
At the great rock
In the evening light?

Will you remember me
Still know my name
When I'm set free?
Will you still bide awhile
At the great rock
In the evening light?

14. Breathe

Blind and beset
They lurch towards pale void
A ghostly host of exiled souls
They've haunted us
For they cannot see
And burned the ones
Who set them free

I've yearned for you
I've yearned for way too long

I'm coming home
Home again
I'm now born again
I lunge into you
And I'll breathe again
I'm coming home

Behold, I have fought my fight, I've run my race
I will be gone, I will be reborn
Into the dark, into the rock
Bright sun of the night, I'm coming home

Home, home again
I'm now born again
I lunge into you
And I'll breathe again
I'm coming home

Forsaken!

Everything that was became what is
And what withers and dies is but alike the larva in its cocoon

I'm coming home
Home again
I'm now born again
I lunge into you
And I'll breathe again
I'm coming home
Home again
I'm now born again
I lunge into you
And I'll breathe again
I'm coming home

Tigerne nemeson tigerne moníon

15. Rebirth

Oh bright sun of the night I lift my eyes up to thee
Oh ye amber golden light let the dark sweep over me
Mighty cauldron, oh nidus
I surrender all to thee
Panacean nothingness when nothing is left

These dreadful shades
Dancing in my dwindling sight
And crying out these hollow words
A straying soul in my scorching flesh
Dying down amid this fucking blaze

My swooning world
Infested by strident cries
In a worship of the void

All vanishing in a dull and distant noise

Oh bright sun of the night I lift my eyes up to thee
Oh ye amber golden light let the dark sweep over me
Mighty cauldron, oh nidus
I surrender all to thee
Panacean nothingness when nothing is left

This was my rebirth

As one with pain and with distress
Sweet surrender in serenity
Will I remember this womb at all?
Will I ever know?

Oh bright sun of the night I lift my eyes up to thee
Oh ye amber golden light let the dark sweep over me
Mighty cauldron, oh nidus
I surrender all to thee
Panacean nothingness when nothing is left

I am not here
I do not last
I am the grain in the earth
I am the wave in the deep
I am the softly whispered word
In the murmuring autumn breeze

In front of Antumnos' gate
I beheld the mirror in the lake
Recognize I did not
Nor did I comprehend

Oh bright sun of the night I lift my eyes up to thee
Oh ye amber golden light let the dark sweep over me
Mighty cauldron, oh nidus
I surrender all to thee
Panacean nothingness when nothing is left

This was my rebirth

16. Eclipse

O bright sun of the night
I lift my eyes up to thee
O ye amber golden light
Let the dark sweep over me
Mighty cauldron, o nidus
I surrender all to thee
Panacean nothingness
When nothing is left

O ye fathomless night
I give myself up to thee
And when my time is nigh
Let the silent swallow me
Sacred bosom, o dear grove
I offer thee myself
And I shall rejoice when nothing is left

O bright sun of the night
I lift my eyes up to thee
O ye amber golden light
Let the dark sweep over me
Mighty cauldron, o nidus
I surrender all to thee
Panacean nothingness
When nothing is left

O ye fathomless night
I give myself up to thee
And when my time is nigh
Let the silent swallow me
Sacred bosom, o dear grove
I offer thee myself
And I shall rejoice when nothing is left

O bright sun of the night
I lift my eyes up to thee
O ye amber golden light
Let the dark sweep over me
Mighty cauldron, o nidus
I surrender all to thee
Panacean nothingness
When nothing is left
