A DESOLATING HYMN
[no lyrics available]
KURGAN SUPREMACY
As darkness falls over the lands
My time has come to crush humanity's daughters and sons
War and hate peace will never be
Total damnation not one's soul will be free
Grains of sand filled with blood
On these shores of despair
My march will continue
The star's final glare
My endless strive for domination
Armageddon's leading son
Fulfilment of this greater vision
There shall be only one
The last day has ended
Heaven will mourn
I stand high on this hill
Adam's race died at dawn
Darkforce be my guide
Towards the eternal reign
Last battle on earth
This night there shall be only one
My endless strive for domination
Armageddon's leading son
Fulfilment of this greater vision
There shall be only one
Behold The Kurgan
Master Of Fog
Behold The Kurgan
Master Of War
TWILIGHT SHORE
As the heavens opened
Light poisoned the air
All fallen angels followed
The leader's fiery glare
They came with the storms
Once heaven's delight
He summoned them all
An army with pride
And then at dusk
When daylight went
The fallen angels
With black - blooded scent
They bowed before him
To speak the oath with eyes so black
A mighty voice cut the silence
The lord of falsehood raised his head
We are casted out of this false paradise
So let us join under the banner
To perish his kingdom
This god exists no more
In ruins he will reign
A worthless victory
For all eternity
Let this be your last fate
To fight for hell
My renewed paradise
Lucifer's spell
Soon we will return
The dark kingdom's ascension
Oh winged flock of impurity
The poetry of this dark quest
Lead me to redemption
The armies carry on his will is rule for all
The time is near for heaven's fall
He spreads the seed of purest greed
The battle has begun
They fought for endless power
Bloodred skies are ours
War of angels... War
[Repeat 1st verse]
[Repeat 4th and 5th verses]
The troops of light exist no more
Dark winged angels gather in victory at the
Twilight shore...
He spreads the seed... of purest greed
OPAQUE FORTRESS
[choral part of lyrics unavailable]
Call my council hall of might
Towers of darkest dimensions
Build it up by magic Pandemonium
Tempt mankind forever
Chaos direct me through the gates of hell
Created free they will soon fall
Go to the rim of the universe
Passing the limbo of vanity
Wait to reach the nighttime stars
An army of immortality
Satan - Godmaster
Lucifer - One Shining Star
I fall, I rise
Return of the highest in spiteful disguise
I fall, I rise
An unending path to be seen in his eyes
Seducing god's creation
Serpent's lonely voice
Invert the lie betray them
Leave the garden forever...
Chaos direct me through the gates of hell
Created free they will soon fall
Go to the rim of the universe
Passing the limbo of vanity
Wait to reach the nighttime stars
One army of immortality
MOLDAVIAN FIRES
I am legion
Crimson eyes of thousands
Death kiss the undead's glory
Await the new beginning
They pledge to their swords
Darkday is near
Nature's grand powers
Mankind's soul disappears
Flames of fire kiss the night
Stormclouds like black tears
Flames of fire kiss the night
Guarding spiteful angels
Flying in the Carpathian nightsky
I am legion
Crimson eyes of thousands
Death kiss the undead's glory
I am legion
Crimson eyes of thousands
Await the new beginning
Flames of fire kiss the night
Stormclouds like black tears
Flames of fire kiss the night
Guarding spiteful angels
Flying in the Carpathian nightsky
All mortal ones shall be lost
Waves of blood at the horizon
Join the force and shun the cross...
ACROSS OCEANS OF TIME
Shadows of the nether world
Bearer of the coming age
Masters of all entity
The universal rage
Grand scale of unknown dimensions
Serpent's deathkiss no redemption
Guardian of the ancient urn
Where fragments of the time and space will burn
Wall of fire, lord of storms
Echoes whisper in pain
Impaled by age's thorns
Ruler of the endless spheres
Take us across these oceans
Where new worlds will appear
They came from beyond
As legends once told
And travelled in time
Aeon's to behold
Drifting towards the vortex of ferocity
Birth of a new breed mental atrocity - atrocity
Absence of mercy mind
Days of final judgement when all eyes of men
Turned blind
Pagan curse the secret bequest
Harsh indoctrination
Inquisition false religion
Scorned intoxication
Immortal thoughts martyrdom
The cry of desolation
Conjure the dark millennium
Ruler of the endless spheres
Take us across these oceans
Where new worlds will appear
They came from beyond
As legends once told
They strove for one aim all forces to unfold
Across these oceans of time......
NORTHERN ETERNITY
To capture the essence of astral fire
Forlorn on these desolate plains
The symphony of roaring forests
All old spirits call out my name
The purity of nightsky enchantment
Dark crystal waters majestic grand lands
At dawn when fog appeared
Mankind's greatest fear
The coming of a new age darkstar's endless torment
Human existence was soon to end
The chains of northern steel
A universal seal
The greatest cosmic power
One key for the eternal tower
Far north the epic crimson sky
Towards the firmament
A thousand souls will fly
The seer of visions saw the end of the world
And four apocalyptic riders
To haunt all the cowards to break their weak bodies
No one will be left beside us
And the stars guide us on our ride
Aeons elapsed - an everlasting flight
The northern law - the one to obey
To be your own master - a warrior's way
No truth in religious beliefs - no glory at all
I am the one god's heaven will fall
The chains of northern steel
A universal seal
The greatest cosmic power
One key for the eternal tower
Far north the epic crimson sky
Will guide me
When my time has come to die
Northern Eternity
Open The portals of Superiority
