Thalarion - Shadow-veiled Nayanna (She Reveals To Me Every Night) Lyrics

This is the story I will tell you. It's happenned long before I was born

When the ancient rider Zordrak met the dark goddess of war Nayanna

Amidst the lurid black forest of Carpathia. Hearken! And observe how

Calmly I can tell you the whole story interpreted by the mouth of Zordrak himself



It was about dusk

One evening during the supreme madness

The church bells mournfully chimed

As I rode under the cloak of darkness

The last echoes of the last chime

Had utterly sunk into silence

Perhaps I fell into a profound slumber

As I entered the deep forest



The trees were black against the evening sky

And the blackness of these sombre trees appal

The sun disappeared slowly beyond the horizon

And the moon rose in all its glory

With fire in my heart

Amid the shadows of the trees

I was dazzled by the amber light

Of the eeriness and magic enigma



At the dead hour of the night

Amid the dreadful silence

I've seen a strange form in the dark

Formidable but exceedingly grand

She looked like Venus approaching me

She had stalked with her black shadow before me

And enveloped me with an ethereal mystery

It was the mournful influence

Of the unperceived shadow that caused me to feel

Although I neither saw nor heard as she came



Nayanna ... come to me, approach me

Nayanna ... speak to me, touch me



"Come, come with me", "Whither, oh my goddess",

"To your dreams, to your mind, where you can find your greatest power,

come with me, I can show you the way of immortality"



I fastened my eyes upon her face

She was the maiden of rarest beauty

The blood was her avatar and it makes me insane

Angelically beautiful with emerald eyes

Her long black hair billowed out in the breeze

An aura of mystery surrounded her

And this flawless beauty enthralled me evermore



Is it an incarnate nightmare incumbent eternally upon my heart?



In the inmost corners of heart heart

She has forsworn all her delights

Her eyes flashed fire as the shadows of the flicker of the candle

No gaiety upon her face, the smile gave way to sorrow



The tears glistenned within her eyes

And an insatiable desire for blood as well

She turned away so that I shouldn't see her tears

Than she looked at me for the very last time

And in the nocturnal silence she calmly evaporated



Is it an incarnate nightmare incumbent eternally upon my heart?
