As dawn is weaving between fallen autumn leaves
The poor ones gather under naked trees Asking how to survive, 'cause the winter breaks And medieval coldness now from a deep sleep awakes - Libera me domine de morte, aetema in die illa tremenda - It's December, 14th 1503, as the ones above stop their mourning As the one arrived - selected to foresee - something changed without a warning! (Libera me domine de morte, aetema in die illa tremenda) - Es ward geboren in des Christengottes Zeit Ein Bub - so die Legende - mit des Schopfers Fahigkeit Zu sehen, was sein wird, im Verborgenen, unerkannt Denn der mit dem Leumund des Ketzers wurd offentlich verbrannt - Die Hand, die - geifend nach dem Schonen - blutet von der Rose Dorn Der Trieb der Menschen Habgier, bestraft durch Gottes Zorn Er, der Spiegel eurer Seele, spurt die Trauer, Kummer, Gram Er, der Trager dieses Namens: Michael de Notre Dame |

Awaking the Centuries
In the books of what will be Written by the demon lord? Never lift your head up to the east 'cause darkness wakes the beast! Der Kerzen Schein Er leuchtet fahl Als das Sonnenlicht er stahl Und nur das große Himmelszelt Bezeugt das Ende dieser Welt So feed the spark Welcome to the land of dark Death in all the centuries is what I left behind Take my hand Forgotten in the promised land Death in all the centuries is what I left behind The knowledge, brought to the world Is growing with a bitter taste In a dream I saw things that will be Centuries away Des Mondes Schein Er leuchtet fahl Das Herz der Finsternis er stahl Nun gleißend Lichte ihn umgibt Und doch des Menschen Hoffnung siegt...? So feed the spark Welcome to the land of dark Death in all the centuries is what I left behind Take my hand Forgotten in the promised land Death in all the centuries is what I left behind The night when evil steps out of the dark And the cross is rising again And fires are keeping the light Burn, my friend... And the sign of humanity is burning tonight I can't escape from this ritual silence Humanity's burning tonight When I open my eyes I see soldiers in the fields Dead bodies on the ground There are children inbetween Explosions shock the land And the evil shows its face The one called Hister rises This is the fall of grace... Beast ferocious from hunger will swim across rivers The greater part of the region will be against the Hister The great one will cause it to be dragged in an iron cage When the German child will observe nothing In the books of what will be Written by the demon lord? Never lift your head up to the east 'cause darkness wakes the beast! Der Kerzen Schein Er leuchtet fahl Als das Sonnenlicht er stahl Und nur das große Himmelszelt Bezeugt das Ende dieser Welt So feed the spark Welcome to the land of dark Death in all the centuries is what I left behind Take my hand Forgotten in the promised land Death in all the centuries is what I left behind The knowledge, brought to the world Is growing with a bitter taste In a dream I saw things that will be Centuries away So feed the spark Welcome to the land of dark Death in all the centuries is what I left behind Take my hand Forgotten in the promised land Death in all the centuries is what I left behind And the sign of humanity is burning tonight I can't escape from this ritual silence Humanity's burning tonight |

As the evining breaks
The night awakes And the land is mournfully wrapped in silence Sorrow last And remains the past cause this will be my ending day Then the moonlight dies And torches rise See the crowd longing for the ritual burning Holy rimes, as the churchbells chime cause this will be my ending day Silent thief Take me away Let my soul rest in the realm of fairytales And as the fire enlightens the dark I see the face bewildered with guilt An nobody's speaking a word And the dark night enters See the soul that's coming out of darkness into light Pictures, I can't fight Appearing in front of my eyes Like silhouettes in the night Like they give bread to the beggars They get ready for the feast Cruelty absorbed by their eyes Within this midwinters breeze Silent thief Take me away Let my soul rest in the realm of fairytales And as the fire enlightens the dark I see the face bewildered with guilt And nobody's speaking a word And the dark night enters And the dark night enters |

We are writing the year 1543 AD, the time the black plaque struck
Agen, here Michael Nostradamus lived with his wife and two children. He confidently began to treat his fellow citizens, but - unfortunately - Was not able to save his family from his old enemy... This was also a time the holy cross was rising with unstoppable might Again, a trace of tears and blood covered the land The final victory Has crushed the autumn silence The final victory Has crushed the autumn silence Mortius, domine, lux perpetua luceat (The more dead, Lord, the eternal brilliance shines) Mortius, domine, lux perpetua luceat (The more dead, Lord, the eternal brilliance shines) Mortius, domine (The more dead, Lord.) Viju svet v notschi tumanoi Ne prognat mne prisrak strany Svet Negasnusei svetschi Gorit, Gorit v notschi So God has found him weeping And wrath flickered deep withing His eyes So thy shalt suffer As long ago the one's been crucified The keeper of the Lord's mark Is rising up with this ability Heavenly damnation So thou shalt trust the seer... |
