The Myth of The Holy Sword - Rhapsody (of Fire)

Click "more" to see the lyrics to this song.

~

After the victory of the angels over hell
these old lands became a new reason for war
elves and men all united against new darklords
it's the time of the three elvish wars

During the third one in Galfor's old mines
Naimur was captured by Atlon, 'hell's fury'
he got tortured by the darklord with the emerald stone
and his brother left alone with the bleeding soul

He took the stone
he forged a sword

AND HE ASKED TO THE ANGELS
TO FILL IT WITH MIGHT
SO IT WAS BORN THE MYTH OF THE HOLY SWORD
AND HE ASKED TO THE ANGELS
TO FILL IT WITH MIGHT
SO IT WAS BORN

After some years the elves' new attack
dramatic battles and rivers of blood
and for Loinir came the chance to avenge Naimur's death
just a strike of the sword, hell's last breath

He felt too much power in that blade
he gave it to the wizards to discover why
and the wizards knew right away
that sword could have been a threat
in the hands of the wrong man or darklords

The wizards knew
the stone was filled

WITH THE GLORY OF ANGELS
WHO ENCHANTED THAT BLADE
THEY HIDE IT WELL BEYOND THE IVORY GATES
WITH THE GLORY OF ANGELS
WHO ENCHANTED THAT BLADE
THEY HIDE IT WELL

Vita e morte
spazio e tempo
sulla sacra
lama divina
Vita e morte
spazio e tempo
nel suo verde cuore
di luce pura

You know well what happened then
the Loregard's warrior and his quest
he was the chosen to find the blade
far beyond the mystic gates
Akron's army could be stopped
thanks to that holy sword
now it lies somewhere deep
in the Algalord's raging sea

AND HE ASKED TO THE ANGELS
TO FILL IT WITH MIGHT
SO IT WAS BORN THE MYTH OF THE HOLY SWORD
AND HE ASKED TO THE ANGELS
TO FILL IT WITH MIGHT
SO IT WAS BORN

i just found this band and i love this type of music lol

makes me think of lotr, d&d and WoW

[DurasDrum]

@10cody73 They said that they get their influence from fantasy movies and novels, but not video games. They're not the gaming type, unlike Blind Guardian.

[Ultima228]

I can see why its called "Fantasy Metal" this fits D&D to a near perfection Never mind DragonForce being born for my campaign i use Rhapsody!

Epic song, they are indeed legands! ty for bringing this song to me!

[DurasDrum]

Lol, Dragonforce.

[RacheengelKratos]

it was a good choice to subscribe your vids.

[DurasDrum]

Thanks.

[somera55]

so, this is how the emerald sword was created.

makes sense,

emerald stone becomes emerald sword

[Thelegend528]

My fave Rhapsody of Fire song

[penguinofhell]

@pansyhater

That is, unless you have the awesome skill to distinguish each song, merely by it's solo. Then, they all sound different.

@Opreaismylife10692

If you don't know the "Emerald Sword" Thing everyones talking about, you have 3 options.

1. Go wikipedia "Emerald Sword Saga"

OR

2. Stop listening to Rhapsody

OR

3. GTFO, N00b! Lolzz!! HAHahahaaHA!

[elgoog43]

Rhapsody= Epic

Dragonforce=not so epic

[THEDARKMINK]

With this song we know that maybe they (the characters of the last saga) will have to search for this holy sword in the bottom of the Algalord`s sea among sea serpents!!. Maybe the next songs of Rhapsody of fire will tell us about the son of Akron, called Nekrom trying to kill his father with this sword, the only one wich could give an end to the darkeness with just a strike of it`s blade!!

[theFFVIguy]

Yes. His body is consumed by the snakes of the abyss right after he handles the Emerald Sword for the last time.

[tethgar]

Your aware The Warrior of Ice does die correct?

[tethgar]

..... Never mind i wont waste my time...

[theFFVIguy]

What am I wrong about? The song, Triumph For My Magic Steel takes place during Dawn of Victory in which Dargor is still evil and the Warrior is still alive.
