MOONSORROW 1065: AIKA LYRICS
1065: AIKA LYRICS by MOONSORROW:
Tääl' lakeuksilla Pohjolan he
asustelivat,
muuan pakanakansa lähes unhoon vaipunut.
ne vimmaiset, jotka veljiänsä puolustivat,
he, joita kastettu ei aikonutkaan tunnustaa.
He valloittivat, ryöstelivät
kunniaksensa
ja etenivät voittoisasti perääntymättä.
Vaan samat aikeet toisella, heitä pahemmalla;
vihollisen vanhan saarella saivat kohdata.
Koskaan eivät he uhkaa
väistäneet,
tarttuivat kirveisiinsä jumalten.
Vastus kuitenkin vahvistuneena
päättänyt oli heidät musertaa.
Oli kääntyvä uusi sivu
taistelussa ruttoa vastaan.
Eihän kunniaa voi saavuttaa
jos jättää kokematta kuoleman.
...jäätyi verensä hankeen.
Valtakautensa lepää nyt pohjassa -
ylväs liekki sammui, vaan silti
voittaja saa häpeää kantaa:
he hukuttivat myös kunnian.
Nyt valtaistuimella istuu väärä
kuningas,
nälkäisten petojen kaitsija, peto itsekin.
Vaan alistettu kansa tuo ei koskaan katoa;
voi menneisyyteen itse”mme emme unhoittaa.
On aika pysähtynyt.

http://www.lyricsyoulove.com/m/moonsorrow/_aika/ ] [1065: TIME]
Once upon a time here on the plains of Pohjola
there dwelled a heathen people almost forgotten by now.
Known as northmen, they furiously defended their kin,
thus being those who the baptised never recognized.
They conquered and plundered, they held to their
honour,
victoriously they advanced with no plans of retreat.
But even one more evil did think of the same;
on the island they encountered an enemy once known.
They never stood back at a threat
but grabbed their axes granted by gods.
Yet grown in strength, their foes had decided
once and for all to crush them to the ground.
There was a page to turn in the legends
of the battles against all plague.
For it's in vain to accomplish honour
if failing to experience death.
...in white their blood now frozen.
In the deep of the waves lies now their reign -
flame once so proud now dead, yet their shame
shall the vanquisher forever bear:
no sunken honour may rise for them.
Behold the throne for there now sits the king of
wrongful deeds,
the shepherd of such hungry beasts, not less a beast himself.
But people submitted to them shall never disappear;
in the past long gone we can not forsake what in our hearts dwell.
And time, it has ended.
