Shadows, desolation and memories of Eld
Darkness an' silence an' frost, I can feel in their strength
Spells more sure than ever, more potent than all charms
Ever drawn down from out fire of down-falling stars
Where a palace once stood, now a column falls
No flames burning anymore
Shattered walls an' statues and ivy-clad arcades
Mouldering plinths, fallen stones, shafts that lie in the shade
Dismal contemplation of glory left to Time
By buried centuries of pride and power gone by
Where the sacred tree hung above the marble thrones
Runs the lizard of the stones
Walhalla, so deserted and so cold
Walhalla, no more eagles cast in gold
Walhalla, just a history foretold
Walhalla, magic lost of heaven gone
Betrayed and sworn
Walhalla, so deserted and so cold
Walhalla, no more eagles cast in gold
Walhalla, just a history foretold
Walhalla, magic lost of heaven gone
Walhalla, Walhalla, Walhalla, Walhalla
Deserted and so cold
No eagles cast in gold
Cast in gold!
Cast in gold!
Darkness an' silence an' frost, I can feel in their strength
Spells more sure than ever, more potent than all charms
Ever drawn down from out fire of down-falling stars
Where a palace once stood, now a column falls
No flames burning anymore
Shattered walls an' statues and ivy-clad arcades
Mouldering plinths, fallen stones, shafts that lie in the shade
Dismal contemplation of glory left to Time
By buried centuries of pride and power gone by
Where the sacred tree hung above the marble thrones
Runs the lizard of the stones
Walhalla, so deserted and so cold
Walhalla, no more eagles cast in gold
Walhalla, just a history foretold
Walhalla, magic lost of heaven gone
Betrayed and sworn
Walhalla, so deserted and so cold
Walhalla, no more eagles cast in gold
Walhalla, just a history foretold
Walhalla, magic lost of heaven gone
Walhalla, Walhalla, Walhalla, Walhalla
Deserted and so cold
No eagles cast in gold
Cast in gold!
Cast in gold!
