lyrics

Intro: Julianna (translation in parenthesis)

Lucis Mortiat (death to the light)
Sun of Sylvangard,
Reginae Gloriae (glory to the queen)
Her will be done.
Bow fallen lands
forsaken and scarred,
Unless five
Walk as one.

Fanfare Chorus: Galen

In the emerald forests, at the wake of Sylvangard
I arise in turmoil, to red tears flowing deep and hard,
They all lay here lifeless, and the air is a poison band
Of the land forsaken, where the elven king was slain
Cry out distant winds, and fly.

Verse 1:

I am lost in the maze, of a sorrow that never ends
blinded by the haze, of what seems a dream
And a voice is telling me, as my soul starts to slowly bend
what is meant to be, under blackened sun beams
I scream.

Interlude 1: Órækja

Though you may feel alone, hope will endure withal
And return light to our sun.
Do not allow despair, to be your final call
We the five must walk as one.

Pre-chorus:

Rise up green lands, peril awaiting thee
Stand up and fight, this destiny.

Chorus: Lomek

In the eye of the wind, where the trees ever rise
For the eternal sky, to a sun black as pitch
Keep your soul and your mind, from this chaos devised
Or the light's grace will fly, to the whispering witch.

Galen

Crying out from it's binding seams so dark, I am lost in the Elven Dream.

Solo (Blackmane)

Verse 2:

Light comes shining from the north, bearing truth as it breaks the spell
Chanting of the word, axe and sword held high
As I walk into the light, three lords standing to face this hell
Singing songs of praise, fire and earth and trees divine.

Interlude 2: Gigas

Bringer of life, born by the flame
Burning so true, I speak your name
A proof against the void of space (Fire)

Valos

Source of all things, treasures grand
The home to all, I praise the land
The womb of all life and grace. (Earth)

Pre-chorus 2: Lomek

Rise up green lands, peril awaiting thee
Stand up and fight, this destiny. (Life)

Chorus

Bridge: Galen

The Viking lord turns his head, vanishing into a haze
Around me only death remains, again alone in fright.
Suddenly a black shape comes, paralyzed now in its gaze,
Engulfed now it's screaming my name.
Rise Julianna's Night!!!

Solo (Blackmane/Stegossi/Blackmane/Stegossi/Blackmane/Stegossi)

Outro: Julianna

Though you're awake, prince of troubled dreams
You will never know, the slumbers of before
For by starlight, and the moon's pale beams
Your heart, shall seek, my door.
