  • I cried when I heard the song for the first time. So beautiful...

  • @DoomDzver i still cry at this

  • Something very weird in this musik. Germanic gefühl .Some sad dream scenary from the great ballets of death under the night of the latest century . Millions of young guys killed in those infinite meadows, at a time Ukraine was a huge cemetery in the thick night of WWII.An army of young guys ,soldiers all under the same uniform of deads, emerges from the ground to teach the living world how to dance this mortal tango.But they look so exhausted..Always the same dream in the muezzin song .

  • if you have a heart you will feel it if not hahha.........

  • @nvanderpl Except the picture to 1:30, these are pictures from Google Images.

  • What are the lyrics of the 2nd part of this song ?

  • @Psg919 I wish I knew it...

  • @brain31 Yea, need to know !

  • @Psg919 Translation: I offer you an imaginary throne made of precious jewels, I offer you bath in the water of melted snow from the Himalayas, I offer you holy silken cloth to wear, I adorn you with very many precious jewels, I offer you musk and sandal, I offer you Bilwa and Champaka flowers, And I offer you the holy lamp, But all these I offer in the portal of my mind, I have prepared all these in my mind with devotion I offer you song and dance, I offer you full prostration
  • @xMYTHODEAx Oh thx :)

  • @xMYTHODEAx It is a translation.. what are the true lyrics ? ;o

    Thanks :)

  • @xMYTHODEAx

    Thanks a ton mate. Where did you find this at?

  • @NintendoW11

    Well, the mantra you hear in this song is actually just a part of the original mantra dedicated to Shiva. I did some google research and I found a random translation on this part, then compared it to the translation of the original and it really is very accurate.

  • @NintendoW11

    If you refer to the actual lyrics (I mean the sanskrit), again google research and comparison to the original ones. :)

  • @xMYTHODEAx  "Fear & Trembling " facing the Teño .? (Amelie Nothomb )

  • i just told my love that i really cared about her and i wish i could hold her and she thought i was acting weird but this song made me feel inspired to really do something with life

  • Comment removed

  • i'd use this music for a film...a film in my head...a film in all our heads

  • This song seriously made me cry, the first person that popped into my head was my grandmother, RIP...

  • I'm afraid i'll fall asleep if i listen to this. Theirs  no description of the beauty or how it makes you feel as everyone else said.

  • Someone dies......someone lives in pain. Rip Ken May 24 1973 -Nov 6 2010

  • Lyrics are typical, but the sound is aethereal. The two mediums struggle.

  • is it weird that i want to call this phase of Ulver "Melodic Drone"?

  • ... of all sad memories

  • 2:36 im in love...perfect image, perfec music

  • I put this on when I'm having a restless night, and my alarm wakes me up with Nattens Madrigal. I love Ulver.

  • Gravferd transmuted into EOS

    watch?v=4S9nxDpolag

  • I have no words to describe what I feel inside me when I listen to this album.. and every album about Ulver

  • This is the pefect music to listening to when your in the nice hot bath with candles burning around you and drinking a bottle of absinthe in one hand and a razor blaze in the other hand(if you dare do it)Goodbye cruel world.Doom and Gloom.

  • Basically The Earth goes in circles around the Sun. The Sun only goes in circles around the galactic centre. Bad lyric Garm.

  • @Neueregel are you kidding dude?

    this song is not about telling the truth about nature :s

    this song is the most amazing work of them and you are trying to find something bad in it..

    u suck :s

  • @bernadotte913 Well I have the Shadows of the Sun limited 200-edition and I am a Ulver listrener for 6 years. So you suck. I can criticize something that i don't like, why should n't I? Are you a fanboy or sth?

  • @Neueregel we do both suck :))))))))

    this is not a song... this is a drug

  • god i cant help but listen to this song at least once a day

  • So haunting yet so amazingly beautiful... 

  • at some point in this song, the clouds break apart and light suffuses the earth and soul.

  • girl at 2:45 is officially now my dream girl

  • very depressing, but enjoyable song, brings tears to me of fear

    fear of what's beyond infinity, does it end there? what's after there?

    what do you lose, what do you gain? very profound hymn

  • Marvellous.

  • Incredibly beautiful song. Still a little depressing though. It gives me a feeling of a serene, calm world that no longer exist.

    Om bare 90-tallet kunne komme tilbake...

  • unbelievable that Ulver started off as black metal and then went to making this. really, the diversity is astounding. Hail Ulver!

  • merveilleux

    insane beauty

  • My goal is to listen to Ulver every day when I wake up.

  • @kawaiipanda24 Don't do that otherwise you get sick of this song sooner.Best to listen to it when your down with a few drinks to relax.That what i do anyway.Doom and Gloom.

  • @Zodist Perhaps you're right, sounds like good sense. To be honest I haven't, so that's fine. I will definitely take your advice, minus the drinks. Stay well <3

  • Oh, the melancholy...

  • beautifull song and very sad but this is good on a bad days

  • im liking Ulver to. this song is fucking amazing! i do have a wide taste of music genre, but these days im rockin Dancehall & Hip hop :D and then i stumble over something like this track and i just freeze :O i LOVE

  • Peos

  • I find it very hard to describe this music, except that it does remind me of the landscapes of norway

  • es la cancion mas triste y a la vez mas preciosa que he oido

  • Clearly a great song for reflexion ! I was at first a Bergtatt taliban (I mean by this that I only really liked Bergtatt), but this song just blew my mind ...Great work by Ulver.

  • fucking stunning...

  • listening to this album then hearing the opening part of hymn 4 wolf and night is just exhilarating, in a sense of the word

  • masterpiece!

  • would i go to hell for saying this reminds me of type o negative if they smoked a lot of pot and were actually good?

  • every time the mantra starts my body gets shivers...

  • @jscalise1

    blaring Eos at full volume through every speaker in a huge house, in the middle of a valley, watching the sun rise over mountaintops in the distance, while tripping BALLS on acid....fucking incredible

  • Ulver have many great and amazing pieces of musical art, but there's one that rises high above anything else - Eos. Just why is it that no other Ulver song comes even close to this masterpiece?

  • a true testimony of pain and reflection....pure musical and poetic genius....

  • i love the first picture... would love to just hug her...

  • Great.

  • No words can describe how powerful this song is when Ulver play it live. I felt like someone was sheering my flesh off. The hairs on my arms were standing up absolutely rigid. Traumatic, inspirational - a truly significant life experience.

  • this band is Fenomenal

  • This album is for listening by yourself, it reaches me on a personal level that doesn't seem right to share with other people.

  • wow ulver is incredible

  • I suggest listening to this sitting by a lake while the sun is about to set. It gives you an amazing feeling, or atleast did for me.

  • @mentalholocaust I can imagine that. Whooooo-aah.

  • stupenda <3

  • I wanted to cry....it was so powerful....how does one conceive of such a piece of emotional music??

  • i love them

    with all myself

  • meravigliosi...ricorda lo splendore e la grandezza di Kveldssanger

  • Assolutamente daccordo!!

  • pure meditation, awesome song

  • ke triste sonido pero es hermoso

  • so fragile

  • I wish This song on my Funeral

  • who doesn't :)

  • Special atmosphere and beautiful! Glad to have discovered it! ;-)

  • simply beautiful to say the least

  • Simply SUBLIME ! thanks...late at night...wow!

  • 陶醉的代價是

    我將所有的財富換取惡魔的毒汁

    隨即便陷入頭痛劇烈的昏迷

    之後

    我做了一個不道德的惡夢

    我驚愕的被喚醒

    然而

    最讓我痛苦的並不是夢境本身

    卻是醒來的時候

    身邊沒有任何的酒

  • Soul... soul? Where is my soul?

  • 1:30 wheres that pic from?????

  • A french movie : "J'aimerais pas crever un dimanche", great :)

  • @brain31 she is so gorgeous :O

  • Yes ^^

  • @brain31

    maybe we all like the same look of girl?... weird.

    you guys also want to protect the pure girl who was hurt as a child?

  • No matter what genre Ulver has chosen to dabble in, they have always released a high quality album, and this song is testament to that!

  • junge was ne Atmosphäre.....

  • touching song

  • This is the absolute most beutiful song I have ever known. when I listen to this the outside world just melts away!!

    The video was masterfully done as well.

    Hail ulver forever!!!

  • This song grab my soul and take me into a journey unknown.

  • Best ever!

  • VIVA NORWAY! ...although I am not from Norway! I love Ulver! 3:45 to the end - MYSTIC!!!!!!

  • ".....For Hyperion wedded glorious Euryphaessa, [5] his own sister, who bare him lovely children, rosy-armed Eos and rich-tressed Selene and tireless Helios who is like the deathless gods. .."

  • great song!!!!!!!!!!!!

  • i like burzum better but i want to get into ulver

  • amazing

  • This is why Ulver is by far my fav. band, ever.

  • Comment removed

  • Vikingskippen - I think this is not black metal, because most of BM "stars" going to obscurity and some kind of stupid ideology, but... Yes, there is something majestic like aurora borealis in black metal guitars; this cold, melancholic tremolos like hymnes to the wolf - listen BM Ulvers Hymnen. I think there is not ambient BM inside, but some mistic spirit of North - YES.

  • amazing how black metal music makers can find the bare essentials of feeling in sound. some people see this as ambient black metal, because it reveals the bare feelings with nothing more or less.

  • It would be amazing to translate the Sanskrit part.

  • there is your translation

  • The sun is far away It goes in circles Someone dies Someone lives In pain It is burning Into the thin air Of the nature Of a culture On the dark side Under the moon The wolves gather
  • me encanta fumar con sus rolas....acaaaaaa....

  • villapsycho,yo no fumo nada,solo me relajo,cierro los ojos y al escuchar la musica, imagenes llegan a mi mente.Pero cada kien tiene su forma de 'viajar'.Saludos desde Minnesota.

  • Alucinante. Un viaje...

  • Very nice.Saddest,cold and Doom and Gloom.

  • Fantastic track. The first incarnation of the song was used with great effect in the funeral scene in the movie Uno.

  • Simply the best track from the album.

  • Shadows of the Sun is just...undescribably amazing. Such a genius and artistic opus, full of emotion. You don't know what to think when listening to it, but you know it just feels so amazing.

  • Shaakhanaamayutham jalam

    ruchikaram, karpoora

    khandojwalam...

    Saashtaangam pranathih

    sthuthir bhahuvidhaah,

    hyethath samastham mayaa...

  • I don't know what that means...but it sure is beautiful

  • Those are excerpts from the Shiva Manasa Puja Mantra, a Mantra meant to appease Shiva.

  • "My chanting of your name that is like the tasty drinking water, scented with camphor,

    and betel leaf, created in my mind with devotion. Please accept them, Lord.

    A canopy, a pair of yaks tail whisks, a fan and a spotless mirror,

    With music from veena and mrindangam, singing and dancing,

    And prostrations, and many hymns I offer you"

  • 3:45

    Rathnaih kalpithamaasanam,

    himajalaih snaanam cha

    divyaambharam.

    Jaathi champaka bilva patra

    rachitham, pushpam cha

    dhoopam thataah...

  • "The sun is far away

    It goes in circles

    Someone dies

    Someone lives

    In pain..."

    Thank You...

  • pure bliss

  • Dada

  • very avant-garde.

  • ulver is a band ahead of their time... they will get much more respect 50 years down the road than they get now..

  • hope so, but they have mine already

  • Love it.

  • the warriors would listen to the songs of the skalds when they returned home

    it was not because they were weak, but it was because they had seen too much

    try eating cold meals for two weeks

    then call a black metal artist a pussy

    you might see things another way

  • I didn't talk about the group. Im just about the song.

  • can you explain how youre using the word??

  • if you mean the word- title of the song, "eos" means "light" in ancient greek language ;-}

  • i know, i'm from greece.. :) i was talking to arcanemystery below.. i mean.. is pussy able as a word to describe a song??

  • Oh well, some people gotta listen to hard music, we can't all be well equiped ;)

  • After the hatred and sorrow of their awesome Black Metal, Ulver is looking the things on another point of view ...

    Instead of shooting yourself, sometimes, you decide to create ... Deep song, very sad !

  • this is metal. amazing innit.

  • excellent
