2. WENN SONNENRÄDER LEUCHTEN

When sun-wheels shine
In brightest splendour
The will in all of us
Aroused afresh

When sun people walk
Everything trembles with our paces
Because now we see
All-fathers view lies on each of us

As free people born
We recognize what is right
Gods' magnificence in our eyes
Striving for being the lord, never the servant

The fate is our brother
And sister too
And if we are to go down once
The empire dies with us

Many a blood is washed out and goes lost
But ours we keep safe
Refusing – all the decline
We swore it to the ancestors

We are them and they are us
By power of the bloody bonds
Like once the gods on earth
We will walk the earth


3. GOTT IN UNS

For clear light a shadow is grabbing
Stretches along to the golden shine
What was exposed by chaos
Wants to be the lord over everything

Many a light faded out
Has lit and shone once
But it wasn't noble inside
Has only kept the shine as delusion

Unstoppable seams death
Darkness swallows the lands
When will this misery turn
Will the light's resistance arouse

A shadow stake perforates the heart
But the ninth night comes running up
Dead limbs resurrected anew
And clearly the lame spirit awakes

Kissed awake from ancient wisdom
Thoughts arise brightly
And with the power of thousand suns
A new god breaks through

Folkish stands the gods' scion
In a dome of sunlight
Swords' time, blood and thousand wounds
Didn't bow him in the end

Omnipotence has chosen him
Who has to follow his fate
Each of us bears the spark
Even in his own chest


4. SONNENWENDE

The day is coming to an end
The sun is hiding from the moon
The earth is till shining in a golden splendour
And the wind rocks the leaves in their dances

Our flames light the darkness of the night
Even the gods can see them
Solstice it is accomplished
The time, oh it doesn't stand still

Men and women rejoined in dances
The jump through the flames is about to come
The gods are witnesses with this oath
Such as thousands years ago

Never does the fire fade out
So brothers keep it aflame, the light
Don't give the torch out of your hands
Let it glow throughout our lands
The sun-wheel turns and shows us the way
Open up your eyes and see
How it glows and shines and lights the night
How the enemies' might falls to ashes


5. WEG DURCH DIE ZEIT

Holy be the depth of the ancient ones
Once exposed in the shrine of time
And golden voices call for us
For deed and bright watchfulness

What walks the way down under
Does even wither away in meagre shine
And in waters free of any iron
Grabs us guessing living-being

Emptied of sense, pale, without any grace
Half way struggling now in the last round
But sooner upright, young and brave
Empowered by spirit from the sun ground

As children of eternal creator's power
Follow the swan in high position
And to the throne of solid purity
Rises up the fathers' land


6. DAS HÜGELGRAB

A hill's tomb made of stone, many a year old
It stands there and fights the wind, deep in dark forest
Who was once buried there, no one could ever tell
But did he do what he had to, marrying death

Like guards do the old trees stand circled around the hill's tomb
Casting their long shadows long since gone
May time and frost also gnaw on the trees' raw skin
Forever will they save what men's hand once built

And as the shadow goes away
From the grave of the o so proud Teuton
The cross of Christianity breaks - the raves tell us
As a new time begins, so hear, you as a grave's warrior
Despite of thousand years of soul murders – heathendom stayed the winner!

Look at foggy clouds twisting around trees ghost-alike
Like claws from the shadow empire to find the living
The white haze in the lunar shine
Carries the valley to grave
Until the sun rays' splendour sowed life anew


7. RUNENKRAFT

Thurisaz – engraved
In our steel blades
Give us force in wild rage
In this eternal struggle

Ansuz – Aesirs' rune
From which wisdom speaks
Hear, o Midgard's fighter
How it calls you to duty

Hagalaz – mighty you
Eternal crystal
Mother of all runes
You form earth and space

Algiz – life's stream
As a safeguard you proved
You are path to gods' spheres
To who travels with you

Tiwas burns on our forehead
Painted with our blood
Ardently it flares up in us
The war god's fighting rage

A hail to the fathers' soil
We fought for
Say it out loud: Othala!
That nobody ever takes him from us

From the firmament does shine
The sun-wheel gold-circled down to us
And our hearts did awake
With the sound of the old songs
Empowered by runic power
Awoken from tight sleep
The power of the runes
Breaks through in new magnificence


8. SEIN UND WERDEN

Grasped by the waves and whirled around
From ancient days of the night
The nothing gave way to the eternal will
The will, the struggle for might

With cold ice and with fire
Did life begin, death as well
In a circle moves the becoming
Because everything dies with the birth

In the mist of days gone by
In times no one can ever recall
Where the might seems to be forgotten
A flame that still burns

Forged of the blood of my ancestors
A living memorial am I
It calls me from thousands years:
“Now recognize yourself!”


9. STAHL

Steel, you shine so silver brightly
Your song sounds clear and fine
To you I trust my life
You proud weapon mine

Steel sword and battle-axe sharp
And lance's point cold
As the strike divides air
A cruel howling echoes

Steel blood red, sing me your song
So lovely it touches my heart
Sword and spear and battle-axe heavy
I push you up to the sky
Steel blood red with runic ornaments
You stand devotedly by my side
And if the death strike cuts me down in the fight
Are we one for every time

High my sword, I wave my axe
The steel sings clearly and brightly
My strong arm throws the spear
It catches its target quickly

Steel blood red, sing me your song
So lovely it touches my heart
Sword and spear and battle-axe heavy
I push you up to the sky

Steel blood red with runic ornaments
You stand devotedly by my side
And if the death strike cuts me down in the fight
Are we one for every time
In Valhall, you steel blood red
Your song sounds clear and fine
You stand forever by my side
You proud weapon mine


10. TOTENRITUS

The dead ones called my name
In the Julmond in a misty night
It was like a secret whispering
That the calm gave me

The words became clearer and clearer
The sense that lay in that
I stared spellbound into the fire
Until my life spark faded away

Now many ones stood gathered
Gathered around me like shadows
Telling of ancient days
Concealed things were offered to me

Still am I one of them
But soon I'll come back
To life to give death
There's only one step missing to eternity
