1. THE PALE COLD MORNING

Landscapes, they come and melt
Fields and villages desolated,
Black trees and haystacks
Lost their colors beneath the grey

Coldness, take the breath of warmth
World is growing old at morrow rays
Gay and dying
At the light of misty sunrise

Winter... expanse among the death
Rime of fading open far
Plains worn in hoarfrost
Forepainted the last glaciers

Calm, ensorcelled by moon
Silvered by ancient stars
Silent cosmic snowstorm
Dust of decrepit universe


2. FAR, THE LEAVING CRANES...

Winter rise with autumn perished flames
That burned down
The colours panorama
Horizon grows, the blizzard nights
Horizon grows, the colder shadows

The distant echoes of cranes
Leaving far into unknown
Weeping across the black space
Lament for the bleak of time

Rebirth at breath of spring
Shall not heal the scars in stone
Never turn to life the horrid
Face of moon
Never Shall inhale the flame
For dying sun

Ghosts of cranes dead for ages
Engraved in the scars of winter sky
By strings of petrified scream
Mourn eternally the fall of time


3. AN ECHO OF THUNDER

Resounds from afar by strained threat
A feral voice of dark impending clouds
The ground trembles deep to rot of roots
Deep to the fractured heart of mountains

The voice of thunder echoed by fear
Old might of abyss of the stormy sky
Carved in every nerve
The memory of crushing hammer

A voice - It comes or leaving far?
The visage emerging through the storm
A blinding blaze perforate the space
A brutal will beyond the clouds

Echo of thunder
A herald of the blaze
Fate is hidden in the will of axe
In roaring voice of gods

Dead trees are burning black
And stones torn apart
Echo of thunder
Scars of eternal flame of wild


4. MILESTONES OF WINTER

Raised by the darkest grey mass
Veil of grim shroud the skies
Blizzard thorns, winter howling
Murder forever the stars

Milestones of death
Stabbed in gold panorama
Eternal winter to reign
Eternal funeral feast

Mourning roar of storm
Never calm down, cold never gone
Frozen in funeral rage
Of the last winter

Funeral, opened far
In moonlit bleakness
Under the ravens shadow
Stab the milestones
...Of death...
