Drakens Comment To Thousand Swords - Lyrics by Graveland


Lyrics
"I am Darken, black druid of darkness and warrior of the new aeon...I surround myself by blackness, because I wage war in the name ofmy land... in the name of my gods... war with christianity, warwith false good and mercy which came from the foreign land andconquered our country. They were all talking about love, pardon,they were lying! They called our gods devils! They burnt the woods...they burnt our temples. They brought manslaughter and plaguein the name of what? In the name of god, who was a man!
All my brothers and sisters, sages and kings died defending theirfatherland and its true gods. Christianity burnt our temples andreplaced them with their miserable cowsheds! possessed christiansbaptized our lands, forests, rivers and people!
They banished the spirits of our fatherland, who lived here from thebeginning!!! They opened our land for foreigners who mixed blood!
My hate and belief gives me the power... gods stand on my side,because I believe in the spirits of my ancestors, ...blackness is theonly colour of my garments, because I made the alliance with darknessfor this war. I hate, and hate gives me the power... Once upon a time,I was dreaming about thousand swords... fire reached the sky, andblack smoke covered the sun... I wanted to rink some water from theriver, but there was only blood in the river! The earth trembled,far from me kettle drums and war horns resounded...
One sword to behead the white ruler sitting on the white thronein the vatican. One sword for the ruler who will come and unite usunder thesign of the cross with broken arms. Eleven swords to beheadeleven lords and rulers of the land united under the blue banner.
One sword to revenge my brothers, who died from the hands of thechristian hangmen. Hundred swords to defend our southern boundariesagainst black plague and half moon. One sword for me to let mebravely defend my stronghold, and may I call this sword,"desaster of christians" soon.
