Avathar Ja Niin Sakenee Pimeys 1. Horns of Doom A cold breeze blows across the plains From the north, from the blackest of pits Darkness stays though dawn should come the silence is broken by the beating of a drum Horns of doom Hear them Horns of doom See the glow in the horizon Horns of doom Take a deep breath Horns of doom the last one Now only Fear grows between the pines Whirling Dead shapes in the snow As the ground wails and trembles A Harsh chill goes through all Horns of doom Hear them Horns of doom See the glow in the horizon Horns of doom Take a deep breath Horns of doom the last one All is lost, the siege broken Unrelenting force led by a single Mind Burning all on its way, only the dead here still lay, only the dead stay Open the gates and let the World burn A swarming wave of darkness, turning all green to dust Dragonfire licking the smoldering bones Haunted by ancient whips of shadow and flame ”Darkness took me, and I strayed out of thought and time, stars wield overhead and everyday was as long as a lifeage on the earth” Now the pines are dead and gone Ghostly Shapes of ash in the whirling wind Ground shaking beneath the feet Of the doom of Dorthonion Now the pines are dead and gone Ghostly Shapes of ash in the whirling wind The gasping dust is all that remains Between the hills made of the dead Horns of doom Hear them Horns of doom See the glow in the horizon Horns of doom Take a deep breath Horns of doom the last one 2. Wight Get out, you old Wight! Vanish in the sunlight! Shrivel like the cold mist, like the winds go wailing, Do you not heed the call beyond the black wall Lost and forgotten be, darker than the darkness, Where gates stand for ever shut, till The World is mended Lost and forgotten be, darker than the darkness, Where gates stand for ever shut, till The World is mended Out into the barren lands far beyond the mountains! Come never here again! Leave your barrow empty! Do you not heed the call beyond the black wall Lost and forgotten be, darker than the darkness, Where gates stand for ever shut, till The World is mended Lost and forgotten be, darker than the darkness, Where gates stand for ever shut, till The World is mended Leave your being in the ruins of your past For what do you know of living Dwelling inside the insanity of your existence Fading away day by day Leaching the remnants of Old glory Leave now and never come back Come never here again! Leave your barrow empty Do you not heed the call beyond the black wall Lost and forgotten be, darker than the darkness, Where gates stand for ever shut, till The World is mended Lost and forgotten be, darker than the darkness, Where gates stand for ever shut, till The World is mended 3. Palantír Now witness the weight of the gravity of times yet to come turn away, turn away from your fragile sanity your hopes are built on lies forever doomed your kind for your vanity blessed will be the blind for now you see, there is no triumph nor glory to be shared among burning bones look into the stone, i'll show you the future and the past that could never last dare not lift your gaze from the splendour of those days from east to west the black plague is rising Now witness the weight of the gravity of times soon to come turn away, turn away to face the insanity your realms are built on lies forever doomed your kin for their vanity blessed will be the blind turn your mind to me and receive the curse of sight over lands and times Behold! Between space and time here ends your line Behold! With will and spell i bound you in chains Behold! Your reality shall bend and turn Behold! The one that sees from afar Empty are the prayers in the coldness of night dead is the light of thy halls behind your puny walls one by one veiled by the absence of starlight for dark have been my dreams of late from south to north waves of darkness will wipe away your world and forever forgotten shall you be look into the stone, i'll show you the future and the past that could never last dare not lift your gaze from the splendour of those days Behold! Between space and time here ends your line Behold! With will and spell i bound you in chains Behold! Your reality shall bend and turn Behold! The one that sees from afar No straight road shall you find forever in the emptiness you stagger deaf and blind haunted by an image of burning hands and withered lands 4. The World of Men Will Fall Your vanity in wordless whispers (like they were to be said yet undone) In time forgot the old ways (and the lore) Lost in the deepening darkness fear crawls among the mortal The roads are before you (all the ways of pain) on the paths of proclaiming to go forth (yet there you never came) Bow your heads kneel down to the ground for there are none who stand before the three jeweled iron crown Cursed be you and your kin your realm of lies, your own demise when the dark ones throne is restored the world of men will fall What once was will be (what is will be no more) Under the flaming red sky (your weak mind finally understands) Lost in the ever deeper darkness despair gnaws their bones What once was will be (what is will be no more) within the emptiness of the void (were no hope rekindles) Bow your heads kneel down to the ground for there are none who stand before the three jeweled iron crown Cursed be you and your kin your realm of lies, your own demise when the dark ones throne is restored the world of men will fall The doors of night are open shackles will be remade to a crown The moon has failed, the stars have died on black winged beasts the wraiths now fly As the ancient bloodlines are all but spent decline and failure haunts every step The doors of night are open shackles will be remade to a crown The moon has failed, the stars have died on black winged beasts the wraiths now fly As you hear, see and feel the coming doom greet the sunless dawn in death and never return Witness the end of your dying breed as the world of men falls a cold eternity beyond your perception now calls 5. Queen No sunlight nor moonlight Extends its light through this roof of leaves Silent darkness lies under these majestic trees Yet watchful eyes gaze tireless, ever watchful For every movement of potential prey Careless travelers far from home Once flesh and bone but now Forgotten to spend their days as sad piles of dust Their swords ruined by all the blood and rust Of fallen foes driven by a lust older than time Bring their bleeding hearts to me As an offering to the ancient mother queen Darkness gathering in the south in the south Day by day the forest seems darker From the ancient ruins of a ghostly haunt Spreads swarm of plagues to pester all that is alive Bring their bleeding hearts to me As an homage to the ancient mother queen Gather under the red and black banner of the eye As all that is free must kneel or die Bring their bleeding hearts to me As an offering to the ancient mother queen Ja niin sakenee pimeys lomassa juurien vanhojen Yllä tyhjiksi juotujen eksyneiden vainajien luiden Hear the cries of the void within Drink from the forgotten and the lost Bring their bleeding hearts to me as an homage To the ancient mother queen Ja niin sakenee pimeys lomassa runkojen ikuisten Nousten maasta taian ja myrkyn alati raastamasta 6. Dagor Dagorath Ride now on beasts of torment Ye Foul forthbringers of oblivion Swarm Through the door of night Into the ultimate climax of all war Fading away under a burning sky Fading away beneath the pressure of all that ever was Fading away The World that you knew Dagor dagorath until all is made new Forth to a glorious end were laws of what was real do not apply Fading away under a burning sky Fading away beneath the pressure of all that ever was Fading away The World that you knew Dagor dagorath until all is made new ”This is your minstrelsy; and each of you shall find contained herein, amid the design that I set before you, all those things which it may seem that he himself devised or added. And thou, Melkor, wilt discover all the secret thoughts of thy mind, and wilt perceive that they are but a part of the whole and tributary to its glory.” Ride now on beasts of torment Ye Foul forthbringers of oblivion cut through the armies of light all hail the coming evernight Ride now on beasts of torment Ye Foul forthbringers of oblivion Swarm Through the door of night Into the ultimate climax of all war Fading away under a burning sky Fading away beneath the pressure of all that ever was Fading away The World that you knew Dagor dagorath until all is made new The undying flame hidden within the void Heart of The World burning within itself Devouring all that ever was and shaping it anew Here were light nor shadow Exist no more
