Текст песни: Remembering the Ancient Wars + перевод

As long as life’s fire has been burning — entangled in the elements of whatever

shape, sentient or non-sentient

Inhabiting whatever dimension — its shady counterpart death has lured the

living into despair, bringing them disease

Disaster… war! And as long as life can be found, battles will be fought

If not on earth, then perhaps in the sky above the clouds, beyond the stars,

beyond our universe

In heaven or in hell. And whoever take part in the slaughter:

Ancient gods, alien races, human beings, or even the smallest of creatures,

they will fight guided by the past:

A past painted red with bloodshed. Some things will never go away,

as if being burned into the frail skin of remembrance

And they will haunt your mind as often as they can

All of those sacred memories have distinct tastes and pains and they remind you

of the times of a past now in slumber: times of victory

And these thoughts and collectively inherited visions form the remembrance of

war

In the back of my aching raw throat I taste the dried blood that had slowly

seeped out of the gaping

Wounds of all those pagan children that bravely

Died in war fighting for their empire… and mine. Although they died in great

pain, their skills

And honour still live on. In the far corners of my head I can find the

penetrating screams that were

Violently cast into the weeping icecold winterwinds that randomly ran through

these fields of Death

And Armageddon and froze the faces of our dying warriors, and bathed the piles

of skulls in beds

Of blinding snow. But neither cold nor heat could stop us from our mission of

domination. In my chest

There is the excruciating pain inflicted by the spears and swords of the

weakened and defeated

Enemy forces. Oh how they had cast themselves into the open arms of Death,

into a battle destined

To be lost. But those fools need not to be pitied for their deaths,

but for their lives

And now, at this day and age, I still hold the flag of our regained empire

firmly in my hands

And it will wave for all eternity
