| The Cormorant |
The tides draw us out again
The waves set off the dance
As summers fade away-way-way
We recall
That we had never seen
A mare like the west wind
A spray of foam before the gale
The sky is dim but
I canât stay and can you
See the canopy of stars
Hear the high tide call your name
Miyako-jima, oh jewel of the East
And all the sorrows
Turn away, turn away
And I feel
Our toil goes on forever
The sail in rags
I could never leave you
Iâm not afraid anymore
As summers fade away-way-way
We recall
That we had never seen
A mare like the west wind
The coral fields below our back
Be heedful of the storm ahead and can you
See the canopy of stars
Hear the high tide call your name
Miyako-jima, oh jewel of the East
And all the sorrows
Turn away, turn away
And I feel
Our toil goes on forever
See the canopy of stars
Hear the high tide call you
Miyako-jima, oh jewel of the East
And all the sorrows
Turn away, turn away
And I feel
I have lost a part of me along you

| The Ventures Of Bombadil |
Sing loud the praise of summer
Dance upon mountains high
Fend off the evil of Carn Dûm
Embrace the rain and wander
On and on and on
When the night turns to day
On the peaks of Dorthonion
The light of Helcar
Glew silent in the gloom
When the fields hail the sun
On the holt of Tasarinan
Of all the wonders
The fairest was you
Turn away the dark at my doorstep
Fear neither sight nor sound
This realm I have chosen
I will not leave, I will not leave
In black wind stars shall die
On gold here let them lie
Till dark lord lifts his hand
Over dead sea and withered land
When the night turns to day
On the peaks of Dorthonion
The light of Helcar
Glew silent in the gloom
When the fields hail the sun
On the holt of Tasarinan
Of all the wonders
The fairest was you
Bombadil, oh Tom Bombadillo
By the water spring, by reed and the willow
Beyond the hill and free from woe
One day I will go

| The Long Sleep |
The harrows grow on the rose hip
Worn down in the yoke is the ox
Like labial traces fading
Like a laugh in the face of god
And never see this place again
All liabilities are leaving my soul
Feel it call you out of your chambers
Your ordeal is a wreath made of ash
Like rivers that flow through the moon fields
Like snakes in the stall of a child
And never see this place again
All colonnades are falling into darkness
Architect delusive
Fiend and companion
Flame is your pennant
Fire is our death, our death, our death
You left us no traces
Left us all alone
We thank you and despair
In your sleep
In your mind
Cross the road to heaven
Death is holy
Let your blood mark the way
And the days
Deserve to die
Feel the ardor embrace you
Death is holy
And we are alone, we are alone

| The Reveries Of God |
Still is the night
Dawn of creation
Never sleep
The errors of the earth
Breathe the vapor
My body in the gloom
And a story
Written in the dirt
Scale the land
Draw the blood
I will never fear again and
When the swollen clouds
Reach the sea
Fill the mountains with my wrath
It is you that I
Fear the most
Turn my love against me
And dark are the
Reveries of God
Pearl and perfume match the void
Grace as an adder
The branch as a clenched fist
Will you laugh
Behind my back and
Never feel
Never doubt
And a story
Written in waves
Scale the land
Draw the blood
I will never fear again and
When the swollen clouds
Reach the sea
Let the mountains be my tomb
It is you that I
Fear the most
Turn my love against me
And dark are the
Reveries of God
Pearl and perfume match the void

| The Red Lion |
The Numen, like snow
Came silent to him
On a night of wintâry fog
The rune of death was stolen
Lay all the land
Under the blade
Banners fly around us
Conqueror of
Stars above
Shatter the ground below
And you we will follow
Oh, General Radahn
Your mind has fallen
Still we fight
Red is the night
Out on the fields
It´s been a long time
That I´ve known you
And the stars fall below
The Wailing Dunes
Red are the fields
Soaked in flame
In Caelid under moon I saw you
And kingdoms will fall
When the lion stalks again
Resound the horn, close the ranks
We curse thy name, Malenia
The scarlet rot upon us
In bloom now all shall fall
All is gone
The ring shattered
On a night of wintâry fog
The rune of death was stolen
Lay all the land
Under the blade
Banners fly around us
Conqueror of
Stars above
Shatter the ground
You we will follow
Oh, General Radahn
Your mind has fallen
Still we fight
Red is the night
Out on the fields
It´s been a long time
That I´ve known you
And the stars fall below
The Wailing Dunes
Red are the fields
Soaked in flame
In Caelid under moon I saw you
And kingdoms will fall
When the lion stalks again

| The Sun Crusher |
The howl of winter haunts the vales
Sun above
Our hearts are ashen and cold
We feel our lifelines fading
We fear ourselves and
Sun above
We thrive in exultation
Leave the harrow, burn the cot
The end is coming
I repent, I redeem
I endure and I will feel
I condone, I believe
I don´t deserve what I receive
Take my hand, I´ve lost my way
Place the sun inside me
Render some of us in each
When the stars align tonight
And I took a lot from you
You took a lot from me
And who am I to question your resolve?
Never asked for something
This life, more futile than cruel
And you I want to shelter within
I repent, I redeem
I endure and I will feel
I condone, I believe
I don´t deserve what I receive
Take my hand, I´ve lost my way
Place the sun inside me
Render some of us in each
When the starsâ¦
