Darkenguard

Darkness weighs heavily upon the land
The mountain peaks soar ominously towards the heavens
After all these years, it is here again
This mysterious whispering in the night
What is hiding there in the gloomy forests?
A storm is gathering
The cold is now biting on the Dark Ridge

Yet, there is hope
For in the midst of this gloom
The guardians of the watch stand ready
Up high on the towers
Day after day, night after night
Ready to defend our families and our land with their lives
When they ignite their torches
Then may the Goddess have mercy on us

It is the fires of fear that burn there now
May the courage of the watch burn brighter
Than the light of the flames
For they are our last bastion
Against that which lies in wait for us in the shadows
And our only hope remains there
There on the Darkenguard

High in the sky, the flames ablaze
To the heavens vast and far
A sign of hope in darkest nights
Each pyre ́s like a burning star

Bid farewell, fellows
Let’s sing the final chant
Shield to shield united through the night
On the Darkenguard

Stoic warriors, without rest/peace
Our gaze as sharp as steel
Nothing to fear, in unison
We stand as one, the final strike/fight

Be wary, fellows
The shadows are awake
Shield to shield united through the night

And if the world’s on fire
Together we will pass the flame
Until our ashes reunite - eternalized

And if the world’s on fire
I know that we will meet again
Beyond the realms, beyond all time - immortalized

Fires enlighten the sky
We are the bane of the dark
Rondra, redeem our prayer
Take our side, for we are the Guard

Warriors, rise up
We‘re the Darkenguard
Be the light at the end of our world
Hold these towers through the Orkensturm
Stand together, for we are the Guard
