In the bowels of rocky mountain
A fiery bird I forged
Forged from iron, from molten steel
A flaming eagle majestic beast
On the wings of my eagle
To black river I flew
To the dale of the d...
Feel the ground
the mourning soil
close your eyes and lay
confront the passage of time
eternity which you cannot betray
barter away this haziness
down to earth this sparkling distress
...
Truly they lie, they talk utter nonsense
Who say that music reckon that the kantele
Was fashioned by a god
Out of a great pike's shoulders
From a water-dog's hooked bones:
It was made from the...
Slowly turns the key of time
In the lock of promises broken
In mute silence of my space
I crouch under my yearning
The works of my gods receding now
Evade my grasping hands
Her hair I w...
Old folk remember
And those today learn
How before their time
Life was different here:
Without the sun people lived
Groped about without the moon
With candles sowing was done
Planting per...
I, I woke up
The God of fire woke me up
At the edge of burning ground
I'm, I'm damned
To put out the fire
My hand is a trap for that fire
It won't surprise me in my dream
My dream wakes m...
I hear you
hear your worthless speech
unheard and sensational
feeding my comprehension
let me see beyond all additional
show me something real
something low and dramatical
when all this s...
That's what my sister says
And during that day
Came spring and summer
Oh, when did you fly here?
It was you I found
The same flesh and blood
(My flesh) It was you that I found
(My blood) ...
Sparks sent flying, my mind thundering
The room of my heart flashing to the sky
The flaring of fumes fill my senses
Pervade this room and this space
The days they blend into the nights
The ...
Mother wept for her son
she wept and sang
anxiously pondered fate
his and her own
A sun's ray, in through the eye
glimmered in the room of mind
changing the woman shape
sorrow fled her fa...
Once I was there
Standing outside
Looking in
Beside my window
Smiling face, shattering
It's an old man's pride
That climbs over understanding
It wasn't your child
That I was hurting
And...
A day's light told me of my son's fate
The sun showed the way, grim and severe
Pulled under the raging waters, my child
Sank in the drowning currents, my son
My strenght is not enough, my power...
From the mystic dream of a nighttime
I saw the clarity of my days
From the gates of longing
Looked for the familiar glow
The death of my wife's slayer
Brought no comfort to me
No shape for lo...
From my world the sun faded
And the moon from my sky was gone with stars
I came home to a bleak room of sorrow
Forsaken house, place of grief, in solitude
I listened to my heart beating
The...
Inside this nonexistence
I know very clearly
The directions, all the points
Of every potential quarter
I forge my wisdom
Into an arc surrounding all
I forge my heartbeat
To a dome all hea...
I let you take
this breeding sorrow
you're too close to see
as the pride inside of you
is smashed to smithereens
this fire hunts the soulless and the weak
bursting out the madness in me

In the morning mist by the waning moon
through the woods she set on foot
With a sacred blade cut the berries down
Dug up the dreaded mandrake root
Tread my path to summer's end
This bequest...
A bird flew out of Lapland
An eagle from the North East
One wing ruffled the water
And the other swept the sky
It's tail skimmed the sea
It flutters, it glides
It looks, it turns round ...
As I sense their steel,
As I see the mighty one,
As we all gather once again
the gods of war summon us...
summon us
North wind blows to our valley
men with ships, with swords, with honour ...
We craved the light from the darkness
It's a morning of misfortune
The dawn of a mankind
Listen to me instead of a blind folk's speak
Forget the mature plan
We are but humans you'll see
