NACHTFALKE LYRICS

1. Call Of The Gjallarhorn

For us to feel,
The immortalitys proud,
For us to see,
All the lifes that were bound
and noone knows
when the time will arrive
when we march out
for the end of all live

now time has come
and wodan calls us by
we´re riding out
side by side
eternal life
will now come
to an end
into death
we´ll ride

three years of war
and the winter passed by
stars are fallin down
and the earth has gone dry
naglfar sails
fenriswolf spits its fire
giants march out
gjallarhorn calls the fighters

oh father
let you never break our hearts
now that the time
has arrived
final battle
will end of all our lifes
still we´re marching on

under the sign
of the hammer we shall die
the great father leads our way
this is the time
the world will burn afar
this is RAGNAROCK

2. My Skin Is Bark

Beneath the great elder
Dissapearing in cold night sky

Gazes down
From those heights
Begins to drown
Into my eyes

And was mortal was once
Weak and meaningless like you
Changes slowly, painful
Changes flesh and bone

And my skin
Turns pale and
Runs dry while I

Gaze into
The darkness
Overwhelming me

And was mortal was once
Weak and meaningless like you
Changes slowly, painful
Changes flesh and bone

Beneath our fathers
I become a part..

Of the night and
Of the woods
I adore

Of nature
And the rune
Who armores

In me

I'm
Drowning down
What was shall never be again
Drowning down
What lives shall never rise again
Drowning down
Become one
Drowning down
Become one

What was
Shall never be again
What lives
Shall never rise again

The sun who rests behond the hills
The runes among the hidden land
The seas of light and endless fields
The pounding gearts in living men

3. Amidst Ancient Forests

[Instrumental]

4. To Stars High Above

The twilight fades, embraces dark
My eyes, my heart and soul
From ages passed by so far I
Hear what ancestors have sworn

"By the sword in my hand
And the everdark forests
By the elders whispering galdr
And the scream of the ravens"

The flowing time surrounds my heart
As I stand on mountains high
Watch the land which torns apart
Sleeping beneathe silver lights

"By blood flowing through our veins
And the everlasting hunting wolves
By the golden hall awaiting us
And the one-eyed father

"Those woods we hid our wifes and descendants
These hills of heathen pride
These swamps and fields we buried our fathers and brothers
Shall be ours again"

These words kept deep inside
From spirits guiding me
From now my journey starts
Regain this land and set it free

To stars high above I raise my sword

5. As A Falcon Through The Night

As the stars encloake the earth
The moonlight silver dims
Enlights the falcons nightly skies
Above these woods unseen

Black the wolves eye hunting shades
Beneath the mourning trees
Dark the place where stags gathered
Listen to the whispering leaves

As a falcon through the night

A lake between those wooden hills
Lies gazing at the night
Keeps secrets drown-reflecting bright
Upon the falcons eye

And ancient runes carved deep in bark
Beware our heathen souls
Carried by the winds up high
As a falcon through the night

6. The Woodwomen

[originally by Bathory]

Resting by my fire. Looking deep into it's flames.
My mind must have been somewhere else
Far beyond these plains.
I am suddenly aware of a pair of eyes staring at me.
I turn around and behold the most ugly thing I have seen.

The woman standing in the glade like a shadow in the night
Points her wretched finger at me with a wretched smile
And she asks me in a voice that sounds as if it's been so long
since she spoke, if I seek magic then I should come along

I'm but a man. Mortal, a man.
But she leaves no footprints in the snow
Still I follow on to where she is going
For she has promised me magic if I follow on.

She takes me to a part of these woods few have ever seen.
Where the sun surely won't reach
Still the ground ominously gleams.
She says she's seen me coming and that she knows where I'll go.
But before I leave she says there is this one thing I should know.

She offers me the ability to take a fatal wound.
Every cut by sword or spear will be absorbed by her tree-womb.
The magic will remain until it's time for me to part with this mortal world.
And all she'll claim is my young heat.

I'm but a man. Mortal, a man.
And I'll need all the help that I can get.
So I give my heart to the woman of the dark
With or without it...my life is not over yet.

Wing of bat and lizard's eye.
Dust of a star fallen from the sky.
Tears of a virgin, and the cum of a god.
Thirteen drops of an infant's blood
A twist of a cat's spit and oil of the moon
Stir for a while and very soon
A salve to be applied upon the chest
close to where the heart beats strong.

No pains will occur when her hand is pushed into my flesh
She'll slowly draw my living heart out of my open chest.
She'll place my heart in the pit of the snake and behold the years go by.
Hers to keep from the moment when the time has come for me to die.

7. Calm Before The Storm

[Instrumental]

8. Halls Of Hel

Where no sunlight breaks
The blind eyes of those
Who wait for their death
Hidden by earth in the halls of Hel

Surrounded by the river Gjoell
A golden bridge
For all lost souls
For all lost lifes

No return no more
No time, no space
Nor hunger, pain
Nor blood in vein

Halls of darkness
Halls of emptyness
Indifference and
Deaf insanity

To walk these halls
In every night
To see the few
Who were once near

Awaiting just the crow of Fialar
These dreams of death
All yours now
The northstar calls

9. Beyond The Fire

So much time
spend to watch the sky
Waiting for a sign
All the things
dear and precious ones
all dead and dying
Will go by
For ages
I am here
So long for thee
Here to see
Fire burns the skies

Many lifes
Lost to save our home
Noone's left fighting
The sun is dead
Water drowns the fields
Nine worlds are dying

Time
Passing by
Through ages
Will it end?
Am I here?
So hard to see
Life and Dead at once/in one

Time
Has gone by
For ages
We were here
So far away
Now to see
Few steps to go

See new life
Dwelling from within
A new kind rising
Another sun
follows in it's mother's realm
Still runes are shining

See
Once again
My brother, than
Close your eyes
Forevermore
To see in the skies
The gates are opened wide

10. Dawn Of A New Age (Outro)

[Instrumental]
