A Warrior´s Tale
04:40
|
|||
From the mountains top
United with twelve tribes
We ruled this celtic realm
And created an old dream
Noricum was born in the kingdom in the alps
rich in beauty
Home of proud people
I LOOKED EAST TO THE LAND OF IRON
I LOOKED EAST TO THE LAND OF SALT
A PROUD PRINCE ON HIS HIGH HORSE
A WILD WARRIOR IN GLORIOUS FIGHTS
In battles, iron sang, angry and cold
For the honor of my high house
iron we wrung hard from the mountains.
Ferrum Noricum for Imperium Romanum,
A tireless enemy strives towards the south
My sword sang it´s sharp song
My sword sang it´s blood song
And life faded into oblivion

The Mountain God

Far in the south of Noricum
in darkness hidden lies the stone heart of the dragon
Deep in the mountain
Deep in the mountain
In a stronghold of stone
It was our shrine it was our sanctuary
And I the high priest of that mountain
...the high priest of that mountain
I was banished when traditions faded
I was banished after Roman friendships had been closed
AFTER ALL THESE YEARS IN WHICH I HAVE WANDERED,
THROUGHOUT COLD NORTHERN LANDS
-ME, THE EXILE, -
I REMEMBER THE HEART OF THE MOUNTAIN GOD
WHO KEEPS WATCH OVER MY COUNTRY
Always our land’s spirits speak to us
Ghosts’ voices urge us never to forget the lord of the mountain
the dragon in the darkness
However I´m banished and people begin to forget
Their ancestors’ faith and follow the way to Rome
Now I am looking to the light out of darkness
And I remember my beloved village
At the top of the mountain
...Now I am looking to the light out of darkness

AGAIN AND AGAIN I'M STRIDING
ABOVE REMAINING STONES
UNDER EARTH THEY ARE SLUMBERING
AN OLD CULTURE, FORGOTTEN UNDERNEATH THE LIMESTONES
Stories arise in my mind
And I dream of exciting days,
of celebration, dance, of battles and glory.
What was real is faded
But fantasy does not need facts.
Barrows in the valley, ruts in the stone,
a home enthroned on the mountain
a sanctuary in the heart of the deep dark
Again and again I stride over the heart of stone
where the realms of Ambidravi and Ambilini met.
Barrows in the valley, ruts in the stone,
a home enthroned on the mountain
a sanctuary in the heart of the deep dark
Again and again I stride over the heart of stone
Regnum Noricum - a reverberation of your stories lives on.
Who raises the head to the sky
and listens to the cries of the ravens that fly high
can hear them talking about long forgotten times… long forgotten times.
