Antique Lyrics of Arda

<< < (210/253) > >>

Walküre:
EMPTY HALLS



--- Zitat ---Throughout night and day,
Among every wonder and deed that see you may,
Very little stands beside the deep mines,
Equalled by naught, great chest of riches and prideful signs.

Then came the hour of fear,
And fearsome grew its vicious enemies, recalled in tear,
No more shall we delight the halls with song and tale,
Void and silence are the sole companion, one to pity and wail.
--- Ende Zitat ---

Walküre:
RELINQUISH

Manwë stands on top of his holy mountain, as the armies of Númenórë land on Aman and swarm the immortal shores, thus breaking the antique alliance between Valinor and Men. One that was forged by fire and common struggle against the snares and deceits of Morgoth.

Then, fearing that ruin could be brought in the very realm of bliss and opposing the idea that the Archangels' hands would be stained with the blood of the Children, the Ancient King of Arda relinquishes his delegated powers over the world and invokes the Almighty.



--- Zitat ---Father of all, almighty and good,
Maker of dawn, water, stone and wood,
I relinquish my rule and remit it to thee,
Ultimate sovereign of love, beyond the end thou art to be.

The Star-Island hath disowned and betrayed the vow,
Breaching the Ban and speaking woes loud,
Take the sceptre, take my crown,
So foes may suffer and sink down.
--- Ende Zitat ---

Walküre:
WONDERS AND PLIGHT

The Almighty then answers the plea of his supreme herald on Arda...



--- Zitat ---Woes to the wrongful, woes to the evil,
Void is to await rebel and devil,
Now shall I stretch my hand over the Isle and smite her with my wonder!
Woes to those seeking endless life beneath my heavens, in the Realm of Yonder!
--- Ende Zitat ---

Walküre:
ADVENT OF PEACE



--- Zitat ---Rain no longer falls,
A final sunset sight enthrals,
The ending of grim deeds,
The rueful Elf farewell bids.

It's time for a new day to commence,
Refreshed breeze for all to sense,
Those who came first, they thus bequeath a greyer shore,
To those who awoke second, in the obscure mazes of another lore.

Deathless is no more the dweller of hither,
He has parted, heading to majesty in the shires of thither,
Longing to live the ages ahead under an eternal dawn,
Carrying regrets and remorse across the waves, where saints weep and angels mourn.

Glorious king, bound to die,
Much you fought and never lie,
A newer era is your bequest,
To hold tight and keep, both in despairing worst and in joyous best.
--- Ende Zitat ---

Walküre:
AMASSING SHADOW



--- Zitat ---Sun has sunk in a restless night,
A bright day has plunged into mares and fright,
Light of old, vanished and gone,
Recalled and yearned in nostalgic song.

What had fallen has risen again,
Bidding to besiege the world and ravage land,
Such wraith of ash and gloom,
Beacon of nought else but doom.

The Dark Lord wakes storm and thunder,
Wealth and fields his foul legions are to plunder,
Amassing shadow in his dreary kingdom,
A last enemy of greatness and wisdom.

Pawns are placed and set,
Shall the mortal monarch his foe inside let?
Shall the fine stone of Men withstand the test?
For the sake of the never-waning Good in the West.
--- Ende Zitat ---
