Clouds of gloom are darkening the sky Frozen wind hits my face Mountains whisper stories of old Their ancient voice can be heard
Those whispers make my mind travel It flies to a time long ago Days of slaughter and cruelty In a wintry medieval night
Rage invades the fields and the seas Besieged is my home land Foreseen it is that my people’s blood Will be dyeing this dawn
The eternal choice must be taken Fight not to be enslaved A crowd fighting as one But death is taking its toll
Now that the enemy has gone far away We drink and we dance only joy will remain Time for celebration, a cheer for the heroes A toast to the fallen ones
Laugh against fear, courage guides our lives A new illusion is born Flowers blossom where light doesn’t reach Rise your cups to the sky
Come to a time long forgotten An age of broken hearts Where simple men become heroes In taverns their deeds will be sung.
Now that the enemy has gone far away We drink and we dance only joy will remain Time for celebration, a cheer for the heroes A toast to the fallen ones
(sanctus)
Come to a time long forgotten An age of broken hearts Where simple men become heroes In taverns their deeds will be sung
Now that the enemy has gone far away We drink and we dance only joy will remain Time for celebration, a cheer for the heroes A toast to the fallen ones
Now that the enemy has gone far away We drink and we dance only joy will remain Time for celebration, a cheer for the heroes A toast to the fallen ones
