Nokturnal Mortum

Night Before the Fight

Nokturnal Mortum


The wind blows through my hair 
The sun hasn't risen above this field 
Yet the eye of the moon stares at my face 
The fear left me long ago 

The army is sleeping: 
I'm the only one standing on the hill staring at the darkness 
Only the night shadows are sliding in the morning 
For trying to find lonely nooks so as to die from the sunrise 

The trees whisper each other the dreams of prophecy 
And their low voices hardly touch my ears 
But I won't know all the picture of the coming total war 
However, the feeling inside me tells me about my victory 
The spirits are on my side, they are embracing me with their arms cold like ice 

Oh, great ancient ones 
I'm calling you now 
It's time for revenge 
I'm opening gates for you 

I'm holding thousand swords in my mighty hands 
I'm looking with eyes of millions into deepest past! 
I have the keys to all the gates of knowledges 
I've gathered them all in the name of revenge, which I believe 
Here is your expiation!
