~ Lyrics:

[English translation:]

Doomsday's Night

A lonely flame glowed in the dark
A lonely fire gave warmth in the cold
The fimbulwinter [also a concept from Old Norse mythology, a winter several times longer and harder than a regular winter]
Showed no mercy
To neither god nor beast

The earth shook with violent tugs
From the caves came forth
Beasts that once were chained.
In the east and west,
In the north and south,
Raised themselves hordes and foes.

Every einherjer [the dead warriors of Valhalla] lay quiet and waited
For the song of the golden rooster
That in the morning would wake all
Those would die cruelly.
The battle that was the end,
Ragnarok.

This night was doomsdaynight,
The last night the proud gods
And the foul beasts
In this lifetime would see.
Morning was doomsday

Under pale black sky
In snow and storm
They waited for death calmly and without contempt
One lives the most during ones last hours.
...destiny cannot be changed.

The lonely flame in the dark
And the lonely fire
Saw more life during the last hours
Than the world had seen in all its time;
When death awaits is life most precious.

The night blows colder when
Daytime shall never arrive.
Beyond the darkness lay the corpse of the sun,
She was betrayed by wolves,
Beside bled the moon it's last blood,
The wolf's bite had left its marks.
Darkness rules, but not forever.
Beyond the darkness waits
Doomsday for its time to come.

[obikenshinobi]

Hard to believe that woman was 17 when this was recorded. Still better than most dudes!

[ebbysabbath]

This is one of the Doom Metal genre's hidden gems.
