Aina - The Beast Within


Song Title: The Beast Within
Album: Days of Rising Doom: The Metal Opera
Year: 2003
Artist: Aina
Genre: Power Metal



[Torek & Sorvahr: Thomas Rettke]


[Torek & Sorvahr:]
Pulse and rage within my veins
Oh, Mother Night, fulfil me
Thick and black my will remains
Oh, Mother Night, come thrill me
The foulest deeds no man can think
Oh, Mother Night, you teach me
The darkness calls and breeds the stink
Oh, Mother Night, you reach me

[Chorus:]
Then heed the calling of the dark
And feed the Beast within
Your willingness will leave its mark
And then the Beast will win
Horrid beings worship me
Oh, Mother Night, I love them
They give me power that I need
Oh, Mother Night above them
My strength is growing here within
Oh, Mother Night, you read me
And Sorvahr brims beneath my skin
Oh, Mother Night, they need me

[Chorus]

[Krakhon Choir:]
Naschtok brutah'k goh sha turh
Trahol Sorvahr kop da furh! [2x]
[translation:]
(All bow down to Naschtok
hail to Sorvahr, to imminent destruction!)

[Torek & Sorvahr:]
I feel the change
It's taking place
No one shall dare
To challenge me!

Pulse and rage within my veins
Oh, Mother Night, fulfil me
Thick and black my will remains
Oh, Mother Night, come thrill me

[Chorus]

Dio - Holy Diver


Song Title: Holy Diver
Album: Holy Diver
Year: 1983
Artist: Dio
Genre: Heavy Metal

Holy Diver

You've been down too long in the midnight sea
Oh what's becoming of me


Ride the tiger
You can see his stripes but you know he's clean
Oh don't you see what I mean


Gotta get away
Holy Diver


Shiny diamonds
Like the eyes of a cat in the black and blue
Something is coming for you


Race for the morning
You can hide in the sun 'till you see the light
Oh we will pray it's all right


Gotta get away-get away


Between the velvet lies
There's a truth that's hard as steel
The vision never dies
Life's a never ending wheel


Holy Diver
You're the star of the masquerade
No need to look so afraid


Jump on the tiger
You can feel his heart but you know he's mean
Some light can never be seen


Holy Diver
You've been down too long in the midnight sea
Oh what's becoming of me


Ride the tiger
You can see his stripes but you know he's clean
Oh don't you see what I mean

Gotta get away
Holy Diver

Dark Moor - For Her

Song Title: For Her
Album: Autumnal
Year: 2009
Artist: Dark Moor
Genre: Power Metal

After the war

I was for ten of those years of yore
Lost in the sea
By a harsh god's agency


But through the years
Love urged my will to be solid and clear
And for my wife
I risked the loss of my life


[Bridge I]


For her
I did not eat lotus from its twig
For her
The sorceress could not change me into pig
For her
I blinded the Cyclops' single eye
The cannibals did not make me die
All for her

[Chorus]


For her
I worked my way
For her
I moved away
From my Destiny
Shipping across the sea
For her
I could resist
In my frail heart, the Fortune's twist
And I was the last
True hero from the past
Sailor, come here...
I hear a trace of the ocean noise
Fascinated...!
The move of waves is like a voice
Hero come near
I can hold on with a tight rope
Captivated...!
I've got a hope

[Bridge II]


For her
I could put up with the nymph for long
For her
I could escape from the soft sirens song
For her
I had to face the women delight
And nobody could defeat me in fight
Just for her

Hammerfall - Hearts On Fire


Song Title: Hearts On Fire
Album: Crimson Thunder
Year: 2002
Artist: Hammerfall
Genre: Power Metal

We saw the writings on the wall

When heathens ruled above us all
Tormented, we still heard the call


You come to bring us down
Wield the scepter, steal the crown
Time on the throne is running out


'Cause seasons change but we are still the same
Even though the cold winds blow we're burning like a
flame '


Hearts On Fire, Hearts On Fire
Burning, burning with desire
Hearts On Fire, Hearts On Fire
Burning, burning with desire
Hearts On Fire, Hearts On Fire
Burning, burning with desire
Burning for the steel


Hearts On Fire


For years shunned by society
Outcasts, condemned for our beliefs
Our legions grew in secrecy


And now, the time is here
I see the Templars everywhere
The Freedom Call is drawing near


We hold our rebel banners up with pride
The colour's crimson and the Hammer is the sign


Hearts On Fire, Hearts On Fire
Burning, burning with desire
Hearts On Fire, Hearts On Fire
Burning, burning with desire
Hearts On Fire, Hearts On Fire
Burning, burning with desire
Burning for the steel


[Solo: Stefan]


Hearts On Fire, Hearts On Fire...


Hearts On Fire, Hearts On Fire
Burning, burning with desire...



Hearts On Fire

Rebellion - Miklagard


Song Title: Miklagard
Album: Miklagard: The History of the Vikings, Volume II
Year: 2007
Artist: Rebellion
Genre: Power Metal




I saw you in my fever dreams
Mighty walls of shining grace
From a different world it seems
A golden glimmer on my face

Across the lands, across the sea
I've traveled far I will succeed
And now I am passing through your gate
Within these walls there lies my fate

[Chorus:]


The golden roofs of Miklagard
I see you shining in the sun
My destiny lies within these walls
Oh Miklagard


Palaces of gold and stone
The riches of the world for trade
A harbour larger than the fjords at home
A city that the gods have made


From the lands of ice I came
To Miklagard for honour and fame
One of the emperor's guard to be
Varangian truth for all to see


[Chorus X3]

Blind Guardian - Valhalla



Song Title: Valhalla
Artist: Blind Guardian
Album: Follow the Blind
Year: 1989
Genre: Power Metal



High in the sky
where eagles fly
Morgray the dark
enters the throne
Open wide the gate friend the king will come
Blow the horn and praise the highest lord
Who'll bring the dawn he's a new god in the palace of steel
Persuade the fate of everyone The chaos can begin let it in


[Lead:Andre]


[Bridge:(Kai Hansen)]
So many centuries, so many gods
We were the prisoners of our own fantasy
But now we are marching against these gods
I'm the wizard, I'll change it all


[Ref:]Valhalla - Deliverance
Why've you ever forgotten me [2x]


[Solo:Andre]


Magic is in me
I'm the last magic man
Never found what I was looking for
Now I found it but it's lost
The fortress burns
Broken my heart
I leave this world
All gods are gone


[Bridge:(Kai Hansen)]


So many centuries, so many gods
We were the prisoners of our own fantasy
But then we had nothing to lead our life
No, no, we can't live without Gods


[Ref:] Valhalla...

Iron Maiden - Flight of Icarus


Song Title: Flight of Icarus
Artist: Iron Maiden
Album: Piece of Mind
Year: 1983
Genre: Heavy Metal


Flight Of Icarus

[Smith/Dickinson]

As the sun breaks, above the ground,
An old man stands on the hill.
As the ground warms, to the first rays of light
A birdsong shatters the still.

His eyes are ablaze,
See the madman in his gaze.

Fly on your way, like an eagle,
Fly as high as the sun,
On your way, like an eagle,
Fly and touch the sun.

Now the crowd breaks and a young boy appears
Looks the old man in the eye
As he spreads his wings and shouts at the crowd
In the name of God my father I fly.

His eyes seem so glazed
As he flies on the wings of a dream.
Now he knows his father betrayed
Now his wings turn to ashes to ashes his grave

Fly, on your way, like an eagle,
Fly as high as the sun,
On your way, like an eagle,
Fly as high as the sun.
On your way, like an eagle,
Fly, touch the sun
On your way, like an eagle,
Fly

Fly as high as the sun.
