Skyforger - Čūsku Sieviete (The Woman of Serpents). Pērkoņkalve/Thunderforge 2003. gads. Lyrics english -
Bloody dew in mornings mist
Clanging swords, chains and pikes
Horses tread the fields of Tālava
Covered with corpses of Letgallians.
I glimpse black men on the sacred hill
Digging their axes into the trees
All day and night they toil
The stone of Gods is split and cracked
The holy oaks become a wall
And the cross on the steeple stabs the Sky
Through fire, through sword, through seas of blood
A new faith comes to us!
There in the depths of ancient woods
Hurry, seek her out
The witch, the wise one of Lauma
Bring news to the woman of serpents
So her sharp words can break this curse
She who was born among serpents
Chosen by the Lord of the Snakes
Blessed in the venom of vipers
Unmatched in words of magic
Her face black, she turns in dance:
Strike! Strike! Thunder with lightning and fire
Burn churches in flames blue
Whither and die unholy power
Fall like an autumn leaf and be destroyed!
By the holy stone the woman of serpents
Sacrifices and prays:
Come, return, ruler of the Sky
Hack, slash, shatter and shake!
This foreign church must finally break!
Pērkons rides the bridge of iron, his horses nine
A green whip in hand,
A green snake rides in front.
Slash into pieces nine
Throw into the deepest see
The land shakes and the Earth trembles
And blue lights spark the air
Evil fires in the witchs eyes,
Dire silence descends on Earth
Behold! The Sky is turning black
Look! The cross is set on fire
Come, return, ruler of the Sky
Hack, slash, shatter and shake!
This foreign church must finally break! Grupa par dziesmu: Inspiration for this song was given by old believes and Latvian magical words. In North-eastern Latvia is a believe that when Thunder was riding over sky seeing Christian church he crashes his thunder and blows it up, revenging for all the evil given by these bringers and advocates of Christianity. Theres also a real prove we found in archives, that in middle ages preachers celebrated the opening day of church and right then Thunder hit the house and crashed it into two parts. In the middle of song are real incantations, I took them from book Latvian incantations and they protect from the evil powers.
