lyrics

Everlasting fear of darkness
Have you conquered all of us?
Our ancestors are wailing
For their legacy is dust
Long forgotten, disregarded
Chronicles of time to come
Will you wither with their knowledge
Like the brightness of the sun

The sight of broken branches, rotting roots and dying leaves
Brings forth their senseless shadows, resting on their bloodied spears
Enveiled by countless stories of hope in death by their own hands
They are the mist of mourning that will always haunt our past

Walls of stone collapsing
By the weight of life
Passed only by the ones who
Slain, for they will rise

Fights in vain for us to witness
Horrors of abiding times
Have you lost your dreadful relish
In the stronghold you'd confined
Where's your fire? Where's your wisdom?
Have you vanished from our hearts
Are we still their humble children?
Bound by their eternal trust

The sight of broken branches, rotting roots and dying leaves
Brings forth their senseless shadows, resting on their bloodied spears
Enveiled by countless stories of hope in death by their own hands
They are the mist of mourning that will always haunt our past

All has faded from this fastness
Bloodless ditches, worn out limestone
Long deserted by the blessing
In the ichor of the Dacians
See their sanctuary corroding
Flooded by their grieving streams
Acumen of joyful sorrow
Let us never carry shields

The sight of broken branches, rotting roots and dying leaves
Brings forth their senseless shadows, resting on their bloodied spears
Enveiled by countless stories of hope in death by their own hands
They are the mist of mourning that will always haunt our past
