Els Senyors De Les Pedres
Sangtraït
The Mystical Call of the Stone Lords
Sangtraït's song "Els Senyors De Les Pedres" (The Lords of the Stones) is a captivating blend of mysticism and adventure, wrapped in the band's signature hard rock style. The lyrics paint a vivid picture of a journey guided by enigmatic forces, with the recurring theme of being watched and awaited by powerful entities. The opening lines, "Hey, els seus ulls t'estan mirant / anem, ells ens estan esperant" (Hey, their eyes are watching you / let's go, they are waiting for us), set the tone for a narrative filled with anticipation and a sense of destiny.
The chorus, "Volen que vinguis amb l'aire / quan faci fred / són els senyors de les pedres / et criden a tu" (They want you to come with the wind / when it's cold / they are the lords of the stones / they are calling you), suggests a mystical summoning. The 'lords of the stones' could symbolize ancient, powerful beings or forces of nature that are calling the protagonist to join them. This imagery evokes a sense of ancient rituals and the timeless connection between humans and the natural world.
As the song progresses, the lyrics delve deeper into the journey, with lines like "Hey, tu estaràs preguntant / quin camí hem de seguir / per a poder-nos trobar" (Hey, you will be wondering / which path we should follow / to find each other). This reflects the uncertainty and quest for guidance, a common theme in epic tales. The mention of the 'dark eyes of the falcon' as a guide adds a layer of mysticism, suggesting that the journey is not just physical but also spiritual. The song culminates with the arrival of the 'lords of the night,' reinforcing the idea of a powerful, otherworldly presence that has been guiding the protagonist all along.
