Facing the northwinds
On high ground we stand
In the air a thousand banners
Flying the honour
Of peoples joined in bitter strife
Darkened green for the wood-elves
Crimson red for dwarven lords
Deep azure blue for men with the hearts to defy
Brass horns are sounding
we drink our last ale
filled with cold determination
praising the ancients
as dark lines spill out on the plains
See the view stretched before me
It's familiar somehow
Why am I here?
Why was I sent to this trial?
You think you can stand before me? You are mistaken!
No! I'm filled with the wrath of a god,
ignited by a righteous flame!
See how you're burning with zeal, and yet so unknowing!
Die! I make you pay for your crimes, red, the grey banner dyed!
With steel I will redeem
For I know what I've seen in my dreams
One brother has to find his demise
Fool! Can't you see
that you were sent to perish before me?
See the blackness for my eyes
How can this be,
Were the scriptures all lies?
Oh bewildered horizon...
What? What is this? Who is this girl, who dares to strike me?
Take my life for another's
Now fall! As he has recovered...
So we are free
Wake from a dream
Glorious deed
But she's lost unto me
See, all will rise
From lands to the sea
But forever she'll live on in my memory |
