@claudichameleon Thank you kindly, I love folk music from all lands, folk music is of ancient origin and so evocative of the landscapes it emerged from, reflecting the times when we were living closer to the Mother Earth. Add in the hard rock sound like Eluveitie's, it's a combination made in Valhalla. :)

I'm no pagan, a muslim actually but i will declare jihad on any smartass motherfucker who comes between me and Eluveitie.

I recall the band making a statement about losing beauty through translation.
As far as translating it goes, Gaulish is an extinct language, so translations are hard to come by. This is based upon a particular tablet, it is mentioned in the Wikipedia article on Gaulish (Corpus section) which says it's a "magical incantation of women, their special magical infernal names, the magical incantation of a seeress who fashions this prophecy." Google "Gaulish - RIG L-98" for more on the tablet itself.

@Toiletcat27 Paganism, historically, has not. There is no reason why we can't change that though. :)

I wish people would realise there's a difference between 'Celtic' and 'paganisim' and that they never always go hand-in-hand. Although, obviously Eluveitie have a pagan vibe - I mean look at the image of Cernunnos as the album cover. But, that's what should be discuss. Eluveitie's pagan vibe, not Celtic'isim and Pagainisim. They are seperate entities, and never ALWAYS go hand-in-hand.
Celts made their own type of Christianity.

@darklynn I don't know if that will help. Let me know if you find something.

@LadySilvyr Thank you so much, I'll surely do the same. I've considered registering Eluveitie's official forum and asking the band members... the point is: will they answer? Do they still check the fans messages there?

@darklynn Unfortunately not. I'll let you know if I find something.



Disappointing to see people debating beliefs here, paganism is what it is. You don't need a label or a book, or a pantheon or a god to be a pagan. Being pagan for me is being free of all that, I live by my own definitions not other peoples.

Why is femininity being under-valued? Isn't paganism setting and valuing the balance between man and woman? God and Goddess? Right and Left?
And yet not many payed attention to this song.
