Lyrics:

ELVETIE!

Ûro si tovo keitone, o brgant tovo bârgo
Toge si se met snibi, stâj si borso anda
Cuonos bê tû sê - immi spakto...
Cuonos bê tû sê - vo tovo vidâ

Venô ap tovo albeis, venô ap de bejos
Venô ap oljo trâno, cu tov' oljo aunio
Cuonos bê tû sê - immi spakto...
Cuonos bê tû sê - vo tovo vidâ

Vegro, abonâ, o aqâ, magos, melb o nanto
Reipatro o tovo bivûed panavo
Cuonos bê tû sê - immi spakto...
Cuonos bê tû sê - vo tovo vidâ

Karaô tû teko têrsos
Kanô ois uis an dêvo
So bâdo het er ti sê
Imon koimo elvetie


English translation:

HELVETIA!!!!

Green are your pasture and lordly your mountains
Coverd are they with snow, proudly they stand there
Beautiful you're perfected overwhelmed I am...
Beautiful you're created by your sight

I rejoice in your alps, i rejoice in your trees
I rejoice in every blade of grass and in all your green
Beautiful you're created overwhelmed I am...
Beautiful you're created by your sight

Grass, river and water, field, hill and valley
The waterfall and your entire vivid harmony
Beautiful you're created overwhelmed I am...
Beautiful you're created overwhelmed I am...

I love you, you beautiful place*
And I sing a song of praise to your creator
So beautiful you are formed
my beloved Helvetia

Dudes, celtic and german tribes arent the same. the celts were never in italy, the german tribes did. and the celtic tribes didnt live all over europa - germany for example was inhabited by the german tribes.

Where did you found the translation? oO

[Seve8888]

@ladywarlock1 google -> uis elveti translation -> first hit

[Scuzyman]

It makes me so angry that I will probably never own this album, well a hard copy anyways. But digital copies just aren't the same. I could've got this album for a penny but some asshole had to come along and bid on it. It is now as high as $78.00 and I cannot afford to bid any higher. FUCKING ASSHOLE!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

@Seve8888 You obviously don't know much about ancient history.Celts came to europe from Russia and settled across the whole continent they came much EARLIER than germanic tribes.When the germanic tribes came they pushed the celts west until around the Rhine thats why they speak German lang. around there.Romans pushed Celts north thats what Caesar writes in his war with the gauls since they inhabited france at the time.europeans have celtic blood but the last celts are in Ireland,Scotland,Wales:)

[SeverMetal]

@Seve8888 Nortern Italy was even called Gallia Cisalpina. Not to mention that Gallic tribes destroyed Rome once under Brennus. So yes, Celts did venture into Italy.

@polloaviariato123 as a matter of fact, the roman legions were better trained and disciplined. most time it was more like a slaughtering, but the victims were the tribes, not the romans. the romans had a tactic which roughly reminds on the one showed in the movie 300 by the spartans ("roughly" because the roman empire wasn't made up). 

[LYVSM]

@Seve8888 You're wrong here. The territories in today's Italy - Po Plain or Cisalpian Gaul in Roman times, were inhabited by Celtic tribes. In fact a big part of Gaius Julius Caesar's armies that fought and won the Gaul Wars was recruited in Cisalpian Gaul and spoke (roughly) the same language as the people they fought against.

I have a new life objective. I'll create a time machine, and i'll go back in time. I'll place myself on a nice hilltop, watching some celtic army smashing roman legions. And while i do that i'll listen to this. Oh yeah!

@Seve8888 Hi Seve 8888, the interesting story in celtic metal is the fusion between two (or more...?) historical cultures. You write: "The celts were never in Italy": False, the northern part of Italy, The "Po Plain" was celt before Christ, just before roman invasion.

[CantFindAProperNName]

@Seve8888 Man gaulish celts always inhabited Northern Italy, so that the region was called Cisalpine Gaul
