From far beyond the mountains of Crom Where the forces of winter spare only the strong Strides forth a son of the north Destined to conquer, and die by the sword And like the sun, he rises with golden light Reaching with his rays into the world But like the sun, each time he's destined to set And is forced to hide in the dark... [Chorus:] ...where his wounds bleed in silence Blazing eyes now reduced to dying embers "Oh, black winged goddess, You've struck me again with lust, please stop the bleeding - You've taken enough!" Across the earth he strides, And when he strikes he always triumphs Still he never forgets the shadow of the goddess, Haunting his steps And like the moon, his restless eyes shine in the night Joining the orgy of the stars But like the moon, his full heart is destined to wane And is forced to hide in the dark...
