1. SAMON

(Instrumental)


2. PRIMORDIAL BREATH

The calling wind on my face
Waving from the summoning of giants
That heals my soul

The virile fragrance of alpine tor
The blowing breath of this fold
That dreams me

Pervading every single nook of existence

Veidon anatlâ
Trireinos koilon monis pantos
Volevos kaion moricos
Ni têrsos tenkos sves nâus-anatia
In litaviâ votno-ûrâ
Mê anatlô
Qe tebô lama deivos skver-ollos

Laden with the burdens of this life
The barque sails through the endless waters
Deep and dark

Yet gestated pristinely and free
Escorting to the biding warmth
Of the womb

" I am a bard do not vouchsafe my secrets to slaves
i am a guide a judge if you sow you will labour "


3. GRAY SUBLIME ARCHON

I raise my hand against ye, thief!
For we're accustomed to receive,
Not to give hostages
Hear these words! deeds are overt!

As chaos evolves
In worthless lies

A crucial congress
at saônes banks

Gray sublime archon i've been called
Through all these years i bore up
Now may we all stay the course
This day

I raised my hand against it all
I question now, did i fail ?
Or retain our dignity
And shelter of this defilement ?


4. INIS MONA

Welcome to the land of questions
Welcome to the isle of lore
Welcome the veil came crumbling down

There it all began
The germination
Unveiling a cryptic door
There it was revealed
Hopes and aspirations
Unclosing and enthralled door

Escalate the sense
Enhancing to join the dawn

I close my eyes, inis mona
And reminisce of those palmy days
I moon o'er you, inis mona
As long as i breathe
I'll call you my home

20 years i have walked your barrows
Years of emulous youth
I followed the path of the wise

There it all was sown,
The inspiration
Removing the seven seals
There it was revealed
Enigma and freedom
Unclosing an unseen door


5. BLOODSTAINED GROUND

What did close in here ?
I can't remember ever shedding tears o'spite
On this ground, cropping up the fatal frontline

Like a soot-blackened palisade yet
Impelled, void and abulic
Legions delineate an ominous skyline

As lifeless demons without soul
These ensentient hosts abide
Engulfing war monger get away from here!

Trod ye the path of vast deceit ?
Every piece of evidence was a lie
The war, the threath's a hyping fake
To move figures on the board!

Stain bibractes ground!

What do you see in me ?
Do you breathe-in dreams ?
What spurred you to come here ?
An oneiric picture of being...

Like disaffected legions taken, lure
I wonder what lies, what threath or promise
Persuaded them to leave their home that far away
... Did they really know ?

As the carnyx roared aloud
I quaked not, yet just asked myself
How their hearts took the bait,
These sweetened words of bitter esscence

face to face with nameless foes
scorching words, unspoken lorn
unheard quests remain the ashes of the dead

Forsooth we'll bear the brunt
Upright in life of in death
Yet still the countless cries echo
In silenced caves of nothing


6. OF FIRE, WIND AND WISDOM

...The endless knot .... the holy grove...
...The threshold ... the place beyond...
...I enter, like a newborn child....

Embracing the eternal
Like a consuming fire
The knowledge grows
When it's cleft
Though still patchworked
Yet flooding
The creating touch
Washing away the vile.

Embracing the ancient
While trees gently whisper
Those intimate
Longed-for words
The greet wheel
Is still revolving
With untouchable sovereignty
So invulnerable.

Into the sacred grove I drown
The endless knot
Draws me into
The fire of hearts, the place beyond
Then I'll be born
Then I'll be renewed

...Naked spirit ... bare...
Spirit

9. THE SOMBER LAY

A murky presage roaming the land
To silence the skylarks chant
The somber kiss is at band
To impart the crimson robe

Heed the darksome maid
Dancing across this equinox
To relegate persistence
As the bleak darkness grows

A cryptal impellent, devoted to the sublime round

Beholden for the boons of light
Retreating into quietness
We harken the somber lay
We sing the somber lay

Close your eyes and heed and vide,
Then you shall see
the sphere revolves as it's promised

Flames flickering deftly
To banish the nipping air
The dark time is at hand
Lighted by bardic chant

Heed the darksome maid
To enwrap all in bleackness
A dark veil o'silence
As quiet insight buds

Darks roaming the land
Long dead the skylarks chant
The dark vis usurped command
To impart the sallow robe

Sure anew light will come
The lifewheel is rotating onward
Given is the promise
Thus assertive we wear on

Life-given impellent, devoted to the sublime round


10. YOUR GAULISH WAR

Fraught with so much greed, imperial needs.
Satisfy your hunger for might and blood!
With greedy claws the eagle flew
Leaving chaos and widows on his hunt.

We do not accept to bear the half-moon on our feet
Nor to bow, to the laurel wreath!

"Haec terra mea est" - the urge of your own want
Spurring the horse towards the devastating aint.
It's the pauper that accrouches - bared indigence
Your need should cost unnumbered lives!

Might and riches you have sought,
Willing to pay the price in human lives!

False and fallacious, killing and omnivorous
Depleting the value of human life!
But we always knew: You came with fortune
And one day you'd come with steel!

We did not accept to bear the half-moon on our feet!
A tort that pays it wage death?

Well, how does it feel, the blood on your hands?
I hope you had a ball in effacing lives!
Well, how does it feel, the blood on your hands?
I hope the gold you've won bestows your delight!

...Standing at the top of all the ruin you have left...
watch our wives remigrate with crooked backs...


11. UIS ELVETI

Uro si tovo keitone, e'brgant tovo bargo
Toge si se met snibi, staj si borso anda
Cuonos be toi se - immi spakto...
Cuonos be toi se - vo tovo vida

Veno ap tovo albeis, veno ap de bejos
Veno ap oljo trano, cu tov' aljo aunio
Cuonos be toi se - immi spakto...
Cuonos be toi se - vo tovo vida

Carao toi tecos tersos
Canumi uis an devo
So bado at ne ti se
Imon coimo elvetie


12. TEGERNAKO

A folk of cheeriness and strength
Content with the life they lived
So-called barbarians yet with eyes cleered
For what they truly need and what damn not

Free and plain

Barbarians, farmers and savages
Counted as ignorant and uncivil
But told to bow before the emperors throne
They were at least not venal

True and plain freedom - of this natures clan
True and plain pride - of this celtic clan
True and plain dignity - Tegernako!

Not for riches, not for sway
Not for economic benefits
Met they the emperors requirements
For freedom can't be bought
