Graveland
River of Tears
On the river of tears Bodies of killed warriors lie Fallen Valkiries as broken flowers The bravest warriors Seized by the cold hands of deat Wind covers them in a blanket of red The lady of a river with maidens Shall arrive in a deep sorrow She shall kiss your forehead For the last time The sun is gone and the Hills veiled in mist The biting cold Spreads to freeze hearts In the red gleam of crying sun Magic fog raises the bodies Far away the horizon or oblivion Wind sways the grass Dew drops cover swords Trees bow down To honor leaving warriors The sun disappears below The horizon SongtexteWorld sinks in the color of blood Silence lulls to sleep And one can hear only Quiet rustle of ghosts [wraiths] Whispering ancient spells Out of the dark river Cold hands raise River maidens Raise the bodies of died warriors To the lands beyond the Horizon of oblivion Where sun disappears When sun is gone Lady of river with her maidens Perform ancient rite Ancient magic and power of earth Will lead sons of sun To the lands beyond the horizon Where shining paths Of setting sun Lead to the land of oblivion
