3/49

the great hymn of Karelia."

2. The Gathering

[lyrics: E. Holopainen][music: T. Koivusaari]

As I sense their steel,

As I see the mighty one,As we all gather once againthe gods of war summon us...summon us

North wind blows to our valleymen with ships, with swords, with honour

Their horses between flames,their dogs eating enemy childs,Our heavenly father, what is this mortality,do you see my mortal agony

Look, I see the shield up highthis must be the sign from my lordthis can be my death - sentence

what a fine day to die

Taste of blood comes up highWind blows hard, our men fall...one by oneThis oath claims meI must bleed for my generation

Strong is the enemy,strong is my swordthe hammer is risingI feel their cold steel

Now when I leave this worldI shall open the mighty oaken gateand we all shall gather once again

3. Grails Mysteries

[lyrics & music: E. Holopainen]

I shall have a son,out of Cornwall shall he come,that shall be a wild boar,bristled with steel...he shall be a man most brave andnoble in thought

Thou shall kneel for him,for every man shall humble in front of our lordI stood upon the sand of the seaand the great wind told me to carry onHe shall once know the secret of Holy Grail

And so was the coronation madeAnd there was he,sworn unto his lords and the commonsto be true king

4. Warriors Trail

[lyrics: E. Holopainen][music: T. Koivusaari & E. Holopainen]

As the sun falls downand the swell crashes into the shore

The great warriors of doom and windride high

Silent is the silence,the only breathing of horses sound,Cold northern steel, shining blade, pleases us


4/49

And we all live under the black mark

Oh lord, lead us to the paradiseMy lord, is this the promised landis this your gift

Let us fly into your dreamsLet us taste some blood

Sorrow - the unknown forceHate - respect your enemyBitterness - shall be foreverSilence - nothing left

Let us fly into your dreamsLet us taste some blood

5. Black Embrace

[lyrics: J. Rechberger][music: T. Koivusaari & E. Holopainen]

Terror, when the darkness binds your limbsTerror, when the fear freezes your nerves

Horror, when the pain climbs up your veinsDarkness, creeping under you skin

Moment of life,when we all have to choose,which way to goand for whom to sacrifice your life

Invoke the god - prayTo lead you back to life - prayCursed by religion - hateLearned upon church - fake

In the verge of hell,of human mindRedemption of your soul,

as darkness binds you tight

Moment of life,when we all have to choose,which way to goand for whom to sacrifice your life

6. Exile Of The Sons Of Uisliu

[lyrics & music: E. Holopainen]

A wave the sound of Noisiu's voicehis singing was ever sweet...Noisiu's grave has now been madeand the accompaniment was mournful

For him I poured out - hero of heroes,the deadly drink that killed him

Dear his short shining haira handsome man, even very beautiful

Dear the grey eyes that women lovedfierce they were foes

7. The Lost Name Of God

[lyrics: J. Rechberger][music: E. Holopainen, T. Koivusaari & J. Rechberger]

We have to know, we have to seeReligions so many, which one of them are so real,That it makes us to believe ?

Crushing the chains of faith

To find the way of immortality,


5/49

We're hiding behind the crossTo find shelter,we're searching for the name of god

In this maze of hatredThe name of god is lost

Under the flag of salvation

we are cleared this land of pagansUnder the cover of Christianity,we stained our hands in blood

At these times of anguishThe name of God is lost

"I saw the coming of the end,Sun stopped its shining,Air is no longer fresh,Then it was too late to realize,that we can't breathe our hate."

The lost name of God

8. The Pilgrimage

[lyrics: E. Holopainen][music: T. Koivusaari]

In his eyesThe evil spirit riseTurns to darkness with Satan's name

"As the time is rightdead bodies rise up from their gravesAnd when the time comes nearOh, I see the prince of glory"

Holy monthSacred houndsUnder the hill

Do you hear their call

9. Misery Path

[lyrics: E. Holopainen][music: E. Holopainen, T. Koivusaari & J. Rechberger]

We sail across the sea,In our thoughts we float over mountainsAll this vanity that we could hideThe truth

The truth is to be aliveand to live your life in fear by hateand create our own gods

We all ourselves are createdour own imagesOurselves we are createdour own gods

In the misty morningWhen the sun is rising,When the whole sky is red like bloodMan can realize the real meaning of lifeto love and respect your life

Your salvation,or is just your damnation.

We all ourselves...

10. Signs From The North Side

[lyrics: E. Holopainen][music: E. Holopainen, T. Koivusaari & O.P. Laine]


6/49

True Celtic powerfrom the cape of Cornwall

Cry of hope, angels cryThis was omen, our sign, prediction

Distant gate, gothic grave

Through ages our clan still remain

In this proud land I grew up strong,My tears are flowing all aroundThe wind is twisting my sorrowI still believe in truth and hate

All through my life I have carried our ring,The omenAll this was the fragment from my life

In this proud land I was born aloneI was taught to fight, taught to winThey told me the way of steel and secretI am the unburied child, child without a nam,Without fate,

I fight for peace and love,I am reborn

11. Vulgar Necrolatry

[CD bonus track]

[lyrics: J. Ahlroth][music: T. Koivusaari]

Erosion of life I seeit makes the passion burn in meLife it always withers awayDeath will eternally stay

Corpses in their coffins

forever rest in peace?There sleeping with the aspergillusis this justice to the dead?

The atrocious sight of burial ecremonyChristians weeping for the departedThey won't understand, they should envy them!

The deceased they know, if there's a paradiseOr shall we feel, the purgatory!I open the graves, admire the rotI can feel the presence, of something beyond

Aureola of nauseating reekWings of shriveled skinHoly beauty of a carcassDivine sight for me to gaze upon!

Necrolatic! Reverence for putrefactionNecrolatic! reverence for the stench

I kneel, before a carrionI pray, before the deadI know, they shall riseI fear, for the scourgeI revere, power of the dead

"Tales From The Thousand Lakes" (1994)


9/49

1. Thousand Lakes

[Intro]

2. Into Hiding

The islander slips into hidingAnd takes to his heelsOut of dark NorthlandThe murky house of SaraHe whirled out of doors as snowArrives as smoke in the yardTo flee from bad deeds

There he had to become someone elseHe must change his shapeAs an eagle he swept upWanted to soar heavenwardThe sun burnt his cheeksThe moon lit his brows

3. The Castaway

A bird flew out of LaplandAn eagle from the North East

One wing ruffled the waterAnd the other swept the skyIt's tail skimmed the sea

It flutters, it glidesIt looks, it turns round

"Why, man are you in the seaFellow, among the billows?"

4. First Doom

The mountains of NorthShall erupt and flamesOf darkland will raiseHail to one who hailsBlood for one who bleeds

O you mistress of northlandQueen of darklandI may wash my hands of theEvil master's blood

For that is no man's doomWhich I bringThat is child's doomAnd it shall be the First doom

5. Black Winter Day

This is how the lucky feelHow the blessed man thinkLike a daybreak in springThe sun on a spring morningLike the flat brink of a cloudLike a dark night in autumn

But how do I feel,In my gloomy depths?

This is how the lucky feelHow the blessed man thinkLike a daybreak in springLike the flat brink of a cloudLike a dark night in autumn

A black winter day

This is how the lucky feel


10/49

How the blessed man thinkLike a daybreak in springThe sun on a spring morningLike the flat brink of a cloudLike a dark night in autumnA black winter dayNo darker than thatGloomier than an autumn night

A black winter day

6. Drowned Maid

I went to wash at the shoreI went to bathe in the seaAnd there I, a hen, was lost

I, a birdUntimely diedLet not my brotherEver in this worldWater his war-horseUpon the seashore!

Waters of the seaSo much blood of mineFishes of the seaSo much flesh of mine

Such the death of the young maidEnd of the fair little hen

7. In The Beginning

I have a good mindTake into my headTo start of singingBegan reciting

We seldom get together

And meet each otherOn these poor bordersThe luckless lands of the north

Those words we have gotFrom the North's furthest fields,From the heaths of Kalevala

8. Forgotten Sunrise

Once I had a mindAnd thoughts was given

But nowadays, in this evil ageAll my sense is somewhere else

Once I had a soulI was one with my god

But now I am abandonedBanished from these lies

Long my tale's been in the coldFor ages has lain hidden

I know how to bewitch fireAnd how to fame flamesI know how to banish wormsAnd turn snakes away

9. To Fathers Cabin

O old man, good god

Careful man of heavenKeeper of storm cloudsMake misty weather


11/49

And create a tiny cloudIn whose shelter I may go

10. Magic And Mayhem

Hey there, tiny wenchMy perpetual serfPut stew in a pot

Bring water for the guest

Before we partBefore your neck is brokenYou strike firstSon of the north

"Black Winter Day" (1995)

1. Black Winter Day

This is how the lucky feelHow the blessed thinkLike daybreak in springThe sun on a spring morning

But how do I feelIn my gloomy depths?

Like the flat brink of a cloudLike a dark night in autumnA black winter dayNo, darker than thatGloomier than an autumn night

2. Folk Of The North

[instrumental]

3. Moon And Sun

Where has the sun gone from usWhere is the moon lost to usThe moon will not gleam at allNor will the sun shine at all

Death opens its mouthThe son of the NorthlanderCamo to look, to listen

"There beyond the river is hero walking"

He took one step and took anotherTo the north's shore he hurriedHe drew his sword, wrenched the ironSnatched from the sheath the harsh oneUpon whose point the moon shoneUpon whose hilt the sun flashedUpon whose back a horse standsHe uttered a word, spoke thus,"There the sun has gone from youThe sun gone and the moon lost"

4. Moon And Sun Part II: North's Sun

Go, look at the moonAnd inspect the sun!

Now they are in the skyRight in their old places


12/49

Hail, moon, for gleemingFair one for showing your faceDear sun for dawningAnd daylight for coming up!

Dear moon, you're out from the rockFair day from the cliffYou've risen as a golden cuckoo

As a silver doveUp to where you used to live

Fare well now uponYour way, upon your journeySweetly end your curve beautifullyCome at evening into joy!

"Elegy" (1996)

1. Better Unborn

Better it would be for meAnd better it would have beenHad I not been born, not grownNot been brought into the worldNot had to come to this earthNot been suckled for the world

If I'd died a three-night-oldBeen lost in my swaddling handI'd have needed but a span of dothA span more of wood,But a cubit of goof earthTwo words from the priestThree verses from the cantorOne clang from the bell

Better it would be for meAnd better it would have beenHad I not been born, not grownNot been brought into the worldNot had to come to this earthNot been suckled for the worldI'd rather die, I'd rather be better unborn

If I'd died a three-night-oldBeen lost in my swaddling handI'd have needed but a span of dothA span more of wood,But a cubit of goof earthTwo words from the priestThree verses from the cantorOne clang from the bell

Better it would be for meAnd better it would have beenHad I not been born, not grownNot been brought into the worldNot had to come to this earthNot been suckled for the worldI'd rather die, I'd rather be better unborn

2. Against Widows

The Devils weds a widowDeath another's leftoversBetter to lie on a willowsRest on alder boughsThen upon a widow's bedOn a used woman's pillow

Sweeter the side of a fenceThen a widow's flank


13/49

Softer the side of a groveThan a widow's beside is

The Devil weds a widowThe grave one twice wedA widow's hand is rougherThan a dry spruce boughWith which she strikes the playful

Grabs the one who laughsA widow has had her gamesAnd spent a merry evening

3. The Orphan

The calloo's spirits are lowSwimming on the chill waterBut the orphan's are lowerWalking down the village street.

The sparrow's belly is chillSitting on the icy boughBut my belly is more chillAs I step from glade to glade.

The dove's heart is coldAs it pecks the village rickBut I'm colder stillAs I drink the icy water.

4. On Rich And Poor

Old folk rememberAnd those today learnHow before their timeLife was different here:

Without the sun people livedGroped about without the moonWith candles sowing was donePlanting performed with torched.

At the time we livedWithout the sunshineWho had covered up our sunAnd who had hidden our moon?

Without the moonlight stumbledWith our fists fumbled the landWith our hands we sought out roadsWith hands roads, with fingers swampsWe could not live without the sunNor manage without moonlightWe could seek out the sunWho spy out the moon?Who else if not GodThe one son of God?

5. My Kantele

Truly they lie, they talk utter nonsenseWho say that music reckon that the kanteleWas fashioned by a godOut of a great pike's shouldersFrom a water-dog's hooked bones:It was made from the griefMoulded from sorrow

Its belly out of hard daysIts soundboard from endless woesIts strings gathered from tormentsAnd its pegs from other ills

So it will not play, will not rejoice at all

Music will not play to pleaseGive off the right sort of joyFor it was fashioned from cares


14/49

Moulded from sorrow.

6. Cares

Many rocks the rapid hasA lot of billows the seaMore plentiful are my caresThen cones on a spruce

Beard moss on a juniperGnarls upon a pine barkKnobs upon a firHusks on a grass-topBoughs on a bad tree.

Drag my cares awayCarry off my griefsFor no horse can drawNo iron-shod jerkWithout the shaft-bow shaking offThe cares of this skinny oneThe sorrows of this black bird

7. Song Of The Troubled One

What the thrush toils atThe partridge asks forThe hapless one takesThe troubled one stealsPuts upon a spadeSets on a runnerHides under a doorShields with a bath-whisk

The farmer hammersAnd tempers his spearsMarries off his sonsHands out his daughtersIn boots clogged with ckayIn fancy mittens

The sea-swell rumblesAnd the winds it blowsAnd the king hears itFrom five miles awayFrom six directionsFrom seven back woodsFrom eight heaths away.

8. Weeper On The Shore

In the vale where I once listened out for the lightWhere the little birds warbleThe ptarmigans babbleAnd my heart looked for some rest from its trouble

I cast my eyes downward upon the seasideAnd a fair young girl on the shore I espiedWho was sitting and weepingTo see the waves leapingAnd over the skyline sad vigil was keeping.

O why are you weeping alone on the shore?Now still from your eyes I can see the tears pour.What sorrow and smartSo pierces your heartThat even at midnight it will not depart?

9. Elegy

Long evenings full on longingLow-spirited my morningsFull of longing too my nightsAnd all times the bitterest.

'Tis my lovely I long forIt is my darling I missMy black-browed one I grieve for.

16/49

Was fashioned by GodOut of a great pike's shouldersFrom a water-dog's hooked bones:It was made from grief

It's belly out of hard daysIts sound board from endless woesIts strings gathered from torments

And it pegs from other illsTruly they lie, they talk utter nonsense

So it will not play, will not rejoice at allMusic will not play to pleaseGive off the right sort of joyFor it was fashioned from caresMouldered from sorrow

2. The Brother Slayer

Where have you been, where have you beenmy son, my merry son?On the seashore, on the seashoremother, my darling one.

And what have you been doing theremy son, my merry son?I have been watering my horsemother, my darling one.

Why is there blood upon your feetmy son, my merry son?My horse stamped with its iron shoemother, my darling one.

Why there is blood upon your swordmy son, my merry son?I have stabbed my brother to deathmother, my darling one.

What now of you, where will you go

my son, my wretched son?To other lands to foreign landsmy dame, my darling one.

When will you be returning homemy son, my wretched son?When all the world to judgement comesmy dame, my darling one.

4. Levitation

[Hawkwind cover]

In the darkness I will shine, cast no shadows, not defineI walk on water, float on air, there's no other to compareI have this fascination, no cause for deviationIt's called levitation

There's no cause to start and scream, nor rub your eyes,This is no dream

Although I sit upon this chair, I rise and float up in the airI have this fascination, no cause for deviationIt's called levitationMagnetic force, repel-attract, once it starts, there's no turning backI offer you this chance to learn, take it now there's no return

5. And I Hear Your Call

[Kingston Wall cover]

I must be out of my mind as I hear you call


17/49

My name is even though I can't see you anywhere

Surely this feeling must be coming from somethingSomeone gave me yesterday as I searched for you

And I hear you callI hear you call my nameBut when I turn around

There's nothing to be found

I must be dreaming a dream of a lunaticMy fingers taste like some strawberry ice-cream

I hear you call my name but I don't think it'sThe same I heard you whisper in my ear

"Tuonela" (1999)

1. The Way

Forging the future from the timeless stoneOh let me know how far I can goAnswering the questions thet no one ever asksFloat through the sea of madnessAnd face the everlasting task

So lonely to wanderSo sad to be aloneIn the mist of the unknownTrying to fool myself with dreams that never come true

So hard to stand my groundNever again will I fail

[Chorus:]Will you tell me not to waitTell me to live for today

As the flowers witherI will forget my painSince the stars have shoneThe devil has shown me the way

[Chorus]

2. Morning Star

You live only for yourselfOr send your soul to the heaven's graceBeen weak as the autumn leavesOr strong as the growing seedSwallowed into the blackSearch for entrace

[Chorus:]Wathc to the eyes of morning starBeckon for the saviorBut it's much too farReach for the infinityThe only thing that remains is decay

3. Nightfall

As a rot to rape the spring sown seed

A plague sprang forth of his tracksChurns ran red when cows milked bloodAnd famine cracked poor backs


18/49

Who would hear a lament sadUnder the bright blue skyThat's sung in hovels dark and lowWith eyes too weak to cry

[Chorus:]But horror be the nightfall's gloom

For the man upon the roadWhen moon doth laugh at worthless livesTwice hard for all promise showed

Empty stare upon his faceNine fathoms deepHe set upon the road againOn ground that bears no seed

4. Tuonela

Sorrow is my breadAnd tears I drink as wineOblivion my happinessGround under teeth of time

For cold be the stoneWhen frost ve devoured the landConsolation is no giftOf winter's icy hand

[Chorus:]Upon a crust of snowI'll lay my broken frameWhat steel and iron won't takeI'll give in winter's nameNo good a sullen soul, no use for simple knaveNo groom for brides of plaited hairThis man old and lame

If only I could breatheTo see the sun of may

but still longer are the nigths than daysAs I wither away

Came the man of crownWith sound of war drums beatSaid no sword arm's strong enoughWithout my two good feet

[Chorus]

But not overlooked am IIn eyes of the maid I'll wedI'll reap the crops of TuonelaMy bride's wealth in death

5. Greed

Not thirsty am I for the bloodOf redeemer of thy creedMy hunger can't be satisfiedWith flesh of thy nazareneNo gilded streets of heaven's graceEntice me in thy speechNo holy mother doth condoneAll your pillage war and greed

But know thee that all oceans worthOf waters turned holyWon't change the course of riverThat runs inside of meMy blood flows ever skywardAnd pools where thy black is white

For woulst thou not carme at my soulWith sword of thy supreme truthStrike me down on my bended knees


19/49

For thy baptism so soothe

My blood flows ever skywawrdAnd pools where thy black is whiteAlone am I to raise my headIn the starless forest night

6. Divinity

Last day brings the graceFor bearers of forbidden nameStep into five fold maceAs son as father in a frame

[Chorus:]Someday fire wipes the rainFears are frozen tears whisperThings that no one herasCry now, cry now for me againTomorrows pride and painWhy you kneel before my name

Crushing my beliefAnd make shape to my relief

For who you set your prayersI can't hear them anyway

[Chorus]

7. Shining

My soul is bleedingI feel so smallAfraid that this will never endI can't understand the pain in my bonesI sleep through another trance

Climb over the rainbowFrom here you can see so muchI need someone to take me down

But who can you trust

[Chorus:]Got so many things to sayBut it's something I don't wanna beGotta get away case it's time to shineLike a fallen angel I runI won't ever see the sunSee the circle is now completeYet the harvest remains undone

Where hemlock grows and vermin crowlAll dreams descend with fearCrushed by the darkness that wells insideThat beast I hold so dear

8. Withered

Withered be the flowerLong past it's prime and bloomForgotten on the stony bedThis silent hillside tombFor coppered be the gripOf this wooded landA crude cold gauntletHides the boney hand

Tears once warmed the groundTorn out of eyes that could cry no moreCompassion for the wind to takeO doth pity the bastard poorA life of misery and hateUpon a chance a twist of fate

The poison from the goblet ranDown the throat of her drunken man


20/49

9. Rusty Moon

Bahted in the rust of moonIs the death beds lullabySung so softly with the starsReflected in her eyes

[Chorus:]

It's the blaze that beckons menInto the woods, of beaten pathIs the sight of the fire thatNo maiden's eyes should haveIron does as iron's toldAnd drinks of life's red goldBut shame won't leave with dying breatheThe life that wants it's own death

And the forest hums its silent hymnHeard by those of solitudeAs mist it wellsUp the brook's dark banksBewitched by there fir woods

[Chorus]

10. Summer's End

In the morning mist by the waning moonthrough the woods she set on footWith a sacred blade cut the berries downDug up the dreaded mandrake root

[Chorus:]Tread my path to summer's endThis bequest I leave you she saysYou will see what could be evergreenTurn to copper and fade to gray

By the standing stonesAtropine eyes smiled at me

Sitting in a sluggish vertigoSands of time form another dreamNo love without sacrificeNo lige springs without decayThe final kiss is a wormy oneIn soils cold caress to rest we'll lay

[Chorus]

"Am Universum" (2001)

1. Alone

Tear dimmed rememberanceIn a womb of timeBreath upon mePossessed by the passionFate will set you freeInfertileChased be the preciousWhen flesh is an enemyFair weather man

[pre-chorus:]Step aside from the way of a better man than youSo you fall at his feet he's the one who betrays you

It's the servants devotion for the decayStand up


21/49

[chorus:]There are no flowers on your graveThere are no chainsThere I keep chanting for the forgotten name

Why you feel so emptyAnd still have everythingIt's fullfilment

I've got more companionsWhen I'm all aloneFlesh is fetching

2. Goddess (Of The Sad Man)

Astonishment when I bend over you creepPut a noose around my neckWhich side I deside it's my time to reapIt's your side wicked and deaf

Take me to the place I can sleepWipe away all miseryTurn my path awayFrom the mind tearing tragedyConsuming range of vision

I can see they declineIt's a stay of executionI fly free tonight

[chorus:]New moon laughs on it's ownWithout compassionI crawl through the realms unknownAnd kneel to the goddess of the sad man

Inhale all mists from the shadowsAnd hide before the dawnFace your mortal horrorYou won't be reborn

Is he a proud man or just a fraud

Fooling himself with a losers talkPunished to eternal vanityIt's thy destiny to cry for purityYou infidel slimeI grace insanity

Satisfy my agonyI know what my goddess needsI bet there's something wrongInside my psycho creepFire burns within her eyesTake me to the deadly rideI remember how she wasWhen she choked on her own pride

[chorus]

3. The Night Is Over

We craved the light from the darknessIt's a morning of misfortuneThe dawn of a mankindListen to me instead of a bl ind folk's speakForget the mature planWe are but humans you'll see

[chorus:]I can hear the silenceSee invisible emptinessTarnish the halo of your guidanceAnd the night is over

That women in grief

Luxurious gehennaAnd what I have becomeWhat I have done to you


22/49

Listen to me instead of a bl ind folk's speakForget the mature planWe are but humans you'll see

[chorus]

4. Shatters Within

Once I was thereStanding outsideLooking inBeside my windowSmiling face, shatteringIt's an old man's prideThat climbs over understandingIt wasn't your childThat I was hurting

[pre-chorus:]And I turn my back to the worldWell I don't careWhat can I say if I see you all as dead

[chorus:]

Under the dying sun it comesWeaving fear but I have noneI know that mushroom cloudWon't come very nearWhat do you have to believe inAnd all the poison you breath inThe crystal heart shatters within

Once I was thereStanding outsideMoving inInside my windowCrying face, shatteringTake all that you haveAnd leave the rest for todayIt's the old folk's sign

That took away your chastidy

[pre-chorus]

[chorus]

5. Crimson Wave

She's riding on a crimson waveTruth sat on her shoulderPlanets before melting faceThe keys for the woundedSinking into undergroundPlease the one who wants itSomething is pulling you downIt's not the cravings why you need it

[pre-chorus:]It's a rush hour inside my headDon't wanna share the anguishAnd I will take it away from youBefore you can change it

[chorus:]That bastard hallucination's pushing meLike a damned I walk overTouch the sky when it's burning redStanding the ground I have chosen

Shivering in outer spaceThere's no one who can hear youGetting into different stateIt's like getting nowhere

Gathering all those fears and failsThere's no one who can see youSomeone is pulling you down


23/49

It's not the cravings why you need it

[pre-chorus]

[chorus]

6. Drifting Memories

How does it feelBlessed to receiveBe modest and forgivingHow does it feelYou can try to hate meBut you're only hurting yourself

[chorus:]Drifting in your shady memoriesWhere to go when sorrow breedsLet the fear run throughBreath in black and stiffling airAll those words they disappearNo need to rest it's too early to die

You don't have to say

Why rue for that dayWhen you've open up your eyes againNow it's your fateFace your heart acheYou wish to make it unreal

[chorus]

7. Forever More

I walk down to the seashoreTo bury my hateI wait till the morning of the mourningBut it's too lateDown to the seashoreThrough the illuminous gate

You wait for tomorrow but today is todayNo one can understand my pain

[chorus:]Find me the oceanWhere waters stand stillNothing can befall evermoreFind me the ocean which swallows all that floatsIt's time to prevail your conspiracy

It's a whisper of a dead manI've heard it beforeIt's yearning my emotionsBefore I was bornIt was only delusionOf illuminous gateLeft only confusion'cause today is the day

[chorus]

Calm is the breath that breaks the circle of silenceLike the whisper of a dying manWho was born in his own funeralTime is right for the twisted oneGuide me to the center of the vicious goalYou're my prey, kiss my arrow the silver

8. Veil Of Sin

For the cold pale womenI leave some of my goodnessI leave the veil of sin

And let go my dreams

[pre-chorus:]


24/49

Eternity follows me everywhereYour words so hollow won't go anywhereDistant shadows disappearsIt searches the gate beyond the stars

And there I can see her again

[chorus:]

Tell me why you have to be so pure and wrongAnd I'm alive to be here

Is it just an omenIs it me walking blindlyI will find the answerWhen I wake up from my dream

[pre-chorus]

And there I can kill her again

[chorus]

9. Captured State

So many years I've been fadingAnd closed the doors behindPay that price if you lost it allThe end is not the past recall

[pre-chorus:]Waiting for the enclosening darknessAnd there you will be the lightAs it's carved in your soulStep out from your mould

[chorus:]The captured mind is a captured stateBut only free will has it's sustainYou burn away all you once lovedNow it's time to turn away

It's all too clear you've been hidingNothing to tell but liesFeel shame when you distain it allYour stand is not the past recall

[pre-chorus]

[chorus]

10. Grieve Stricken Heart

Your helping hand is killing meIf you see me suffer it's not your victorySadistic forms of new way disciplineLike I love myself I love to sin

[pre-chorus:]And I want moreAnd I want it lowOf course you wont forgive meBut I wont crawl

Look out for number oneI pray on you it has begunLet the night stand one thousand yearsLongstanding, everlastingBreathless masqueradeI'm your devil in disguise

[pre-chorus]

[chorus:]

Grieve stricken heartCalls upon youGrieve stricken heart


25/49

My only look you foolsI love my misery too

I'm the one to see your collapseI'm on the side of destructionOn the side of black and I love to sinMentally transmitted diseaseRotten wretched attraction

And I love myself

"Eclipse" (2006)

1. Two Moons

[music: Holopainen / Kallio, lyrics: Joutsen]

Spring came in one dayThe clouds in front of the moon

Tore themselves to shredsSo that two moons passed in one night

Winter went and spring cameAnd the clouds tore of their clothedWashed them in the rivers of rainAnd naked in the dark they stayedWaited for their cloaks to dry

They darkened the face of the moonThey would have tried to kill itIf they could have reached that farAs it spied on the clouds

They've taken off in the rivers of heavenThey've taken off

2. House Of Sleep

[music: Holopainen, lyrics: Joutsen]

I will never sleep alone (never without you)Whatever you say to meI already knowIf I said something to youYou would take those wordsThere's so much power in those words

(You don't know) You don't know nothing yetAbout the dreams I haveI will make you sleep(You don't know) You don't know nothing yetAbout the dreams I have

Sleep is a house for lovers

You will be the mistress (of that house)


30/49

You will be given the wide beltAnd the big key to the gateIf I said something to youYou would take those wordsThere's so much power in those words

3. Leaves Scar


Fate changedLife healed like a woundHow does the kind of life healThat leaves such a scar?I cover myself, I uncover myself

Now I know how to do thingsNow longer will I listen to any talkNow I know and it's workingEverything hurts inside of me

Out from the frozen lakeShe finally grew into her full mightShe grew from a tiny thing

On this lake as I drove there to meet her

4. Born From Fire

[music: Kallio, lyrics: Joutsen]

I have a mind, a good memoryHere's how my life beginsI wasn't born from a woman's thighsBut from fire

I dwell on that dreamI don't want that to fadeI keep that dreamUntil the axe does all that work

I was kept under the tableRaised from their sighI was worthless 'til the dayWhen flames did all the work

On the day I was bornThey denied my rightsEven the right to die

5. Under A Soil And Black Stone

[music: Kallio, lyrics: Koivusaari]

No longer I was breathingNo more bleedingInside the urnUnder a soil and black stoneUnder a soil and black stone

And I was listeningAnd felt no painTo the sunrise to eastI'll leave my grief

To the stars shineCasting my eyes by the long nightsBlessed I wasTo rest thenInside the urnUnder a soil and black stone

Soil upon meSo fragile

As a veilWithout secretsThe staring


31/49

Space so wide

6. Perkele (The God Of Fire)

[music: Etelavuori, lyrics: Joutsen]

I, I woke upThe God of fire woke me up

At the edge of burning groundI'm, I'm damnedTo put out the fireMy hand is a trap for that fire

It won't surprise me in my dreamMy dream wakes me up, instantlyWithout a word my hand is a trapTrap for that fire

I, I drown it with waterI kill it on the spotIt won't have time to run farIt won't get away from me

7. The Smoke


In my dream smoke followed meAs on fire the whole world had beenTo the yard I walked inUp the frontstep and opened the door

Cranes flew over to the NorthAs I walked on dryAnd passed through a groveYellow with flowers

They had been expecting meThey said so and I believedIn my dream smoke came to me

And we became as one

I am smoke

8. Same Flesh

[music: Kallio, lyrics: Joutsen]

That's what my sister saysAnd during that dayCame spring and summerOh, when did you fly here?It was you that I foundThe same flesh and blood

(My flesh) It was you that I found(My blood) It was you that I metOne just like me, same flesh and blood(My flesh) It was you that I found(My blood) It was you that I metOne just like me, my flesh and blood

A hard place, this worldAnd nowhere elseDoes one make so many mistakes?What's done is doneDone and goneThe same flesh and blood

9. Brother Moon

[music: Holopainen, lyrics: Holopainen]

Free flowing waterThe air is so warmIt breathes for you


32/49

It sees through you before the stormAnd if the lake can'tBe the sisterTo the moonTo the riverTo the sun

The leaves are falling

Cutting the moonlightThey brake the wavesGazing to the starsAnd if the lake can'tBe the sisterTo the moonTo the riverTo the earth

I know I wouldn't be strongWouldn't be brother to the moonI know I wouldn't be strongWouldn't be the sister to the woods

Here is another soulAnother path

Another God

10. Empty Opening


A beautiful day when it's overClouds high up in the skyA beautiful day when it's overNobody will bury me

In this wicked world the war I liveIn this wicked world to war I goHere's my good life, the best I ever haveHow did I get here?

Beautiful yard, trees up against the skyThere is an empty openingThey only live for one summerThis world is too good for me

11. Stone Woman

[Bonus Track]

[Lyrics are based on a single tale from Kalevala, Kullervo's Story]

[music: Koivusaari, lyrics: Joutsen]

You have a woman hereOne made of stoneYou made her for yourselfYou piled her upMade a stone faceStone fingers and eyes

There's no room beside herFor another womanAlive and breathing one

It makes me sad to seeYou have made a womanOut of rock and woodGrasses and tree barkTo lie beside you, beside you

I made that stone womanFor you to see me and sayI am here

"Silent Waters" (2007)

1. Weaving The Incantation

A mind dejected, blood boiling with angerthe storm of the warpath, now sings in my heartyour pleadings, useless, I now shall disregard

I'll leave you to weep and to fear for me

I'm ready for my endmy hair I comb downwith resin into braidsI'm ready to ascendmy will burning highsummon strength from the night

I equip myself, to warfare I prepareI put on my black cloak, enchanted adders skinsyour prayers shall not reach into my heartyour despair shall not stop me now

This precious hairbrush, thrown at the wallit came to me from my father

I give you this as a token of myselffor you to have and mourn over

And when my blood flows from it's bristleswhen my sap is dripping from it's shaftthen you will know of my anguishmy destruction will be revealed

2. A Servant

What was denied from poorI thought to be richesI run for them there and thenit made me take my dueto death I'd plunge with joymy happiness to claim

I am prepared to face the warunder the black soil

I'm righteous if I so desireuntil I reveal my worthand take to myselfwhat was denied from meI stalked them in their celebrationsI delved into their wordsI aimed at the highest of the highand decided it's mine to take

Wont to crawl I wasto cringe and fawna servant on hours of daybut a holder of nocturnal sway

What was denied from poorI thought to be loveI run for it here and nowit makes me take my due

3. Silent Waters

A day's light told me of my son's fatethe sun showed the way, grim and severepulled under the raging waters, my childsank in the drowning currents, my son

My strength is not enough, my powers failed meI need the heavens help, I ask for thunder's forceI plead for you oh lightning, forge an iron toola magic rake of dragging, a river for my son

God of fire bring your lightforger of sun help me now


34/49

4. Towards And Against

I have known the arcane loreon strange roads such visions metthat I have no fear nor concernfor hatred and obstacles of this world

By stone-shooed wanderer I am taughtmy visions from fiery eyed iron-armed chanterI know how to fight, I know how to singI know hot to bend, I know how to break

I've not grown weary on lengthy roadson strange lands not hone astraysuch is the knowledge cast in mesuch is the knowledge, such are the skills

I know how to fightI know how to singI know the way

If ruin is said to befall meit has not come to passI've conquered all who stood on my wayand drowned the snakes of death

Because of treason i now shall leavebecause of my blood burning my soul

and now I raise this flaming swordtowards darkness, against everyone

5. I Of Crimson Blood

I am of crimson bloodnought shall hold memirror mine the dark of nightreflects me in water

Ablaze are my eyesmy soul consumed by woemy braids weaved by the windan image in my mind

Leave I must now with hasteme who tires of quiet lifeme who's path leads to warme who fears no death

I yearn for moreI yearn to riseI yearn for everythingI yearn for youI yearn to rise

6. Her Alone

Only one can make me do my good deedsonly one and the shadow of that oneonly one can make me do my evil deedsonly one and the shadow of that one

On his trail the stones grewhe was led astrayforces strange he had to facemagic unseenwhen he asked he was not answeredbut he would not yieldwhat he asked for was not given

To a whirling mass of watersthe mountains of highhis desire he spoke out

to claim his duea shadow moved in Louhi's mirrorthe fairest maid of them allrestless mind found her to his likingbut the queen wanted more

Louhi spoke in riddled tones of three things to achievefin and catch the devil's moose and bring it there to meseek the stallion born of fire, harness the flaming horsehe captured and bound the moose, he tamed the golden horse

Still remained the final testhunt the bird from the stream of death

8. Shaman

Mother wept for her sonshe wept and sanganxiously pndered fatehis and her own

A sun's ray, in through the eyeglimmered in the room of mindchanging the woman shapesorrow fled her face

From the shaman into shaman

From the chimney a witch flew outshaman dived across the skyunder her the woods and lakestill she saw the Northland gates

I have come for my son, where is my son?I accept no lies, no falsehoods or deceptionI'll send you plagues unnumbereddestruction upon your houseI lay to waste your treasuresand slay your fairest daughter

The queen of north told the waythe road to River Blackimpossible and incompletethe path of no return

9. The White Swan

I set out on a longest roadto seek the answers from Death

I set out to the black sacred streamto seek out and shoot a white swan


36/49

On desolate and stony pathsfrom a mountain to a valeI reached the shore and saw it comeinto my view, the swan

I took the arrow and raised my bowI aimed below the graceful neckunder the white of it's breast

inside the red of it's heart

The surface of the river calm and blackreflects the sky, the pale moonand there a glimpse caught of myselfI'm shattered, the vision is ruined

An arrow from the watera serpent rips my mindinto the black river of Deathwith a slash across my heart

My last sight a white swanbehind the swan a starless skyunder the sky a coal black riverreflected a bone white moon

10. Black River

Still searching for my way, the right way to bestill pondering what I've doneI'm still thinking what I've said, still finding from withinand all that I know is still not enough

I'm being held by the oneshadow tormenting my soulthe curving neck of a swanthe slow turning of a birds head

So white its plumes and feathersits breast like the moon in watersilent and tranquil it moves

on the river in the calm

I wander back on familiar roadsI sense the marks I left on the hillsI see the cuts and wounds of my deedsthey make me muse on life

Up the hill and the mountainI look back, I look downthere flows the River of Deathand here the wind in my hair

11. Sign

[Digipak version bonus track]

Far from here, a house forsaken on lands of yesterdaythe silence of the night has crept inas weeping of the women, as thoughts of solitudeas sadness and as grief

In a dim deserted room a token left on the tablea talisman, a hairbrush from his fatheroozing from the shaft a stream of bitter sapdripping scarlet flow, so slow

They know it to be an emblem of deatha sign of destructionthey recognize the end of a friendthe agony of a man and sonthey look at brush, remember the black hairthey weep the bitter sap

Oozing from the shaft a stream of bitter sapdripping scarlet flow, so slowbristles weeping wet, into a pool of red

1. Silver Bride (Edit)

From the mystic dream of a nighttime

I saw the clarity of my daysFrom the gates of longingLooked for the familiar glowThe death of my wife's slayerBrought no comfort to meNo shape for lonelinessFor a dream

A queen of gold I madeA silver bride I builtFrom the northern summer nightsFrom the winter moonResponded not my girlNo beating heart I feltI brought no sighs to the silver lipsNo warmth from the gold

Within my heart a flame of desiresProvoked the power of my willForced into silvery shapeA golden queen for meI made our bed under the starsCovers a-plenty, bear skin hidesStroked the arc of golden curvesKissed the lips of silver

(Queen of gold) I made her(Silver Bride) I built her(Queen of gold) no warmth(Silver Bride) no love(Queen of gold) I made her(Silver Bride) I built her

(Queen of gold) no warmth(Silver Bride) no life

3. Separated

From trails of wolves

From paths of bruinFrom fen-depths and mountain windsRaised into the light I wasSeparated apart I was

I am of airI am waterI am of fireAnd earth I am

The lore of airThe water's wisdomFire awareThe memory of earth

Upon my birth I understood

The spirits of matterAnd their allianceIn spatterns of liquid ironSeparated apart I was

Separated I wasApart I was

In a flash of lightA crash of stormI was called thereAmong all the greatest

Where light was curvedInto an arcI was made real

Constructed of gods

To north, south, east and westThe spirit of air to quarters fourShe was my motherHeavy with windSwelled from the sea

Separated I wasApart I was

From chaos of matter restored I wasBrought to the essence of creationTo red, black and whiteTo milk iron and steel

The lights of chaosThey have transformedInto a precise sparkThe spark of my mindThe sounds disruptiveInto distant singingI can hear them through waters

"Skyforger" (2009)

1. Sampo

Sparks sent flying, my mind thunderingThe room of my heart flashing to the sky

The flaring of fumes fill my sensesPervade this room and this space


39/49

The days they blend into the nightsThe moon, the sun uniteOrder of stars expiresA wonder is born

I listen and aim, I observeI use all the forces and let it transpireI confront the darkness absolute

And blinding, dazzling brilliance

From roaring flames the shapes emergeCome forth they do with vile charmsTheir poisoned core hides in beautyBut I see and perceive their deceit, I see

Into the blaze I shove them backTo lose their forms to the hungry fireAgain and yet againI start my work anewAgain and againI start my work again

2. Silver Bride

From the mystic dream of a nighttimeI saw the clarity of my daysFrom the gates of longingLooked for the familiar glowThe death of my wife's slayerBrought no comfort to meNo shape for lonelinessFor a dream

A queen of gold I madeA silver bride I builtFrom the northern summer nightsFrom the winter moonResponded not my girlNo beating heart I feltI brought no sighs to the silver lips

No warmth to the gold


A queen of gold - I made herA silver bride - I built herA queen of gold - no heartA silver bride - no warmth

No life

3. From The Heaven Of My Heart

I who have forged the heavensI also have my kingTo northland I was sentI was cast to distant PohjolaEnforced by my king's spellsHis orders undenied

From the small crumbs of earthFrom a fleece of summer eweFrom a memory of a single seedFrom the flair of a swan's featherI let the milk come seeping from the heavenHeaven of my heart

There my skills were known to them allThey all knew my name


40/49

All knew of my mightAnd I forged a godly deviceA machine divineThe gates of plenty opened by me

4. Sky Is Mine

From my world the sun faded

And the moon from my sky was gone with starsI came home to a bleak room of sorrowForsaken house, place of grief, in solitude

I listened to my heart beatingThe faint rush of my bloodI listened to my heart beatingThe echoes from space

Something moving in the emptinessSomething drew me nearSomeone told me of my future deedsWhispered them in my ear

The sky stirredThe lights of space flared

Beneath my feetThe living earth started to breath

The sky is mineThis sword is mineThis fate is mineThis miracle, mine

From steel I made the master's swordCleaving stone, cliff, a mountainFrom darkness I steppedOnto the path of stars

5. Majestic Beast

In the bowels of rocky mountain

A fiery bird I forgedForged from iron, from molten steelA flaming eagle majestic beast

On the wings of my eagleTo black river I flewTo the dale of the deadTo the stream that grinds all flesh

The eagle soared sky highTouched the vault of heavenThe sky sparkledCracked and creaked

The eagle soared sky highSoared my flaming griffinThe thunder crashed and rolledRolled the monster's head

I found a monster, a black giant pikeFrom it's jaws my eagle saved meDragged the fish under the sunSplit it's belly, ripped the head off

I rolled the pike's head to the house of the northI threw the bony skull at they haughty queenHere's a throne for you to rest your frozen bonesI
