arcturus - throne of tragedy lyrics
[poem by jørn hernik sværen / translation by kristoffer garm rygg]
hear!
from this day forth
are the heights of h-r-b broken
and the sea of sulphur
– ice.
and blasphemy!
in heaven`s chambers:
souls had fled their halls
and closed was the book of life.
and behold!
the great, white throne:
black
with sacred blood.
our father –
dead by his own hands:
an epitaph
worthy no king
and so ie everything
a nameless lie.
who, my god,
am i?
man knows me
as lucifer, the serpent of old
the wretched hold my banner high.
your gift
– all life! –
i grant the grave.
yet i am not your death
come carry forth the crown
to your once held throne.
here is where my suffering should cease
– but alas: i am crowned
in grief unheard of!
in this lone monarchy
– without friend or foe –
i greet the morning sun
with strife and a song:
please speak my name!
and leave me not
in the dust of death
i am weighed down
beneath the tragedy crown, –
nameless
and alone,
a fatherless son.
