Ensiferum-Old Man So much farther off than time could reach Today it would be too late So much despair he has bled but will he wither away No one knows that you must keep this Old Man wide awake 'cause no one knows that he could feed our lives with a brighter flame CHORUS 1: Hush little dremaer, the bearer of light has come to set you free Now little dreamer at last you can sigh 'cause the nightmares will be released CHORUS 2: Sweeter far than life from I found that love was Sweeter far than love to die as he did (J.L.Runeberg) REPEAT CHORUS 1 The stars fell from the nightsky as he reached his hands in the air As the sun peeked between the trees the Old Man burst to tears REPEAT CHORUS 2 Ensiferum-Slayer of Light I have come to unfold your mind in my veins runs the poison wild in the streams of mountains I flow I have opened the doors for unleashed and endless hate it will burn like the raging green flames inside a man dwell secrets so cold Through the dreadful storms, across the frozen oceans I have come from the dark lands with sorrow in my hands The firewind rages in the sky and my luminious sword hungers for more I will leave no one alive For I am the Slayer of Light I... I will break your will I... I will crush your faith I... I will slay your dreams I will reclaim the stars and I will tear your precious world apart I will tear it apart I will pull everything with me under the surface and all the screams will fade into my dreams Fall now! Dying light! I will burn away the ground beneath your feet and all will be vanished in the darkness Dying light! Fall now! and let the night arrive Ensiferum-One More Magic Potion Once when we were returning from a battle, and we got lost in a gloomy forest. In the middle of the woods we saw an old house, with tired minds we knocked the door very loudly. Old woman opened the wooden door, she asked us to come in with kind words. From her pot arose a scent so weird. Stunning and bitter but very summoning. Bring me a magic potion; it will heal my achin wounds. A taste so bitter that makes my bleeding soul feel so good. It will make us sing and dance in our endless feast. Or it might even unleash the beast in me! She filled our pints with the devils beverage. And served another round with a hideous grim. The world was spinning in a new light I saw, everything and everyone was singing this song! With nature, trolls and spirits of the forest. We are on; let our singing rise up into the stars. The Witch's magic drum was still beating hard. When a goblin brought me a new pint and together we roared! Drink and dance! People of the forest sing with us! Who wants to brawl with me? Who can shape a kantele from a pike's jaw? Like the great One once did! Close your eyes. Calm your mind and drift away from the pain. A witch read from the palm of his hand that his life would turn into darkness and alone he would face all the demons from his past that he tries to forget An elder king warned of the dangers that lie in the valleys of the north and his only chance was to find his shadow so he had to set forth CHORUS: He is the man who travels in the land of dragons and magic spells He rides in the winds of fire and snow and he rules the forests of elves VERSE 2: Slas hof the golden sword a flash in the burning night Curse of the evil lord He is fighting for his life for the last time REPEAT CHORUS Ensiferum-Hero in a Dream A witch read from the palm of his hand that his life would turn into darkness and alone he would face all the demons from his past that he tries to forget An elder king warned of the dangers that lie in the valleys of the north and his only chance was to find his shadow so he had to set forth CHORUS: He is the man who travels in the land of dragons and magic spells He rides in the winds of fire and snow and he rules the forests of elves VERSE 2: Slas hof the golden sword a flash in the burning night Curse of the evil lord He is fighting for his life for the last time REPEAT CHORUS Oh such beauty in time, but its just external He cannot see the truth with his eyes, so he is bound by a lie The snow stars falling in paradise, as he gazes at the stars He will be born again in the sky, when the night turns into dawn The snow stars falling in paradise, as he gazes at the stars He will be born again in the sky, when the night turns into dawn REPEAT VERSE 2 On the way to the ancient castle of time he will soon be damned by rage so that his pride could betray him when its time to set him free The fears in his mind had to be pushed aside as he walked through the gates He will never die 'cause he is truly a Hero in a Dream REPEAT CHORUS 2 times Ensiferum-Dragonheads Sails up! We're leaving today. Distant lands are calling. Cowards stay at home; this is a quest of true men. Farewell, should we never see again. Weeping women waving at the pier when the sky starts to cry but neither rain, nor wind can make us turn around, what's decided, has to be done See how the forefathers greet us with northern lights, bravely towards unknown shores, through raging storms we fight. Faith in the gods, their strength in our hearts, when lightning strikes. If we die, we'll meet again in Valhalla... In a dream I saw two ravens in the sky and a verdant land behind. When we set out feet there, we'll burn our fleet 'cause the land is promised to us by gods. May Njord protect us on our way, may the moon light our path. Let our spirits be purified by the ocean's breeze, let the wind tell our legend which ever lasts. When we reach the open sea, leaving our home behind, the Dragonheads are rising, let the stars be our guides. See how the forefathers greet us with northern lights, bravely towards unknown shores, through raging storms we fight. Faith in the gods, their strength in our hearts, when lightning strikes. If we die the sun will shine again beyond mortal time. We'll meet again in Valhalla! Ensiferum-Blood is the Price of Glory Before the grimmest enemy Cold rain whipping those proud faces Warriors raising their spirits Despising death as they rush forward Blood of the brothers drains to the ground stirring up rage, giving them power Trampling the enemy with their feet Without fear they fight Can you hear the call of the North Star Feel its longing in your heart This bond is eternal sworn through blood At the end we will stand as one! Even if the daylight dies Our horde marches on and on If we should fall down to the ground We'll rise again and never give up! But for some it's all too much This honorable battle and bloodshed They feel like a swarm of craven rats Leaving their brothers to a certain death The last furious men They didn't fear death or pain They held up their swords and shields As winners they stood on the battlefield Can you hear the call of the North Star Feel its longing in your heart This bond is eternal sworn through blood At the end we will stand as one! Even if the daylight dies Our horde marches on and on If we should fall down to the ground We'll rise again and never give up! Run away, you cowards, we turn our backs on you, The shame that now stains your name will only brighten our glory Those who fight till their last breath and fall with honour Their names and deeds shall live forever Never to be forgotten No axe stayed in your weak hand No shield protected you from the blows of enemies Get out of our sight The war has no need for traitors Ensiferum-Battle Song Hear the sound of swords fulfill the night Feel the winds of death on your skin See the arrows fly, flaming in the sky Hear the screams of men, as they die CHORUS: We won this battle with might and fearless hearts We came and we fulfilled our prophecy So now we shall march back towards our kingdom With heads up high and glimmering eyes we returned with our glory Silence now falls upon this blood red field Vultures feasting with the flesh of dead bodies &quotThis is a great moment for all of us but now its time to head back home victorious" REPEAT CHORUS 2 times evntuell ergänz ich mal wenn mir langweilig is
