[00:00.000] 作曲 : Erik Danielsson
[00:43.950]Out of the dark, into the light,
[00:49.538]in the dawn of terrestrial birth.
[00:54.551]New-born yet older than time,
[01:00.749]conceived in the depths of the earth.
[01:05.346]Though strange lay the waters from which they emerged,
[01:10.650]they glanced upon the world as their own.
[01:15.810]Yet deep in their hearts they knew all the time
[01:21.316]that this was not really their home.
[01:26.493]So they rode on.
[01:37.102]Yes, they rode on.
[01:48.184]On hidden roads, through barren wastelands,
[01:53.417]untrodden by both man and beast.
[01:59.045]From the distance their fire was gleaming
[02:03.642]like a lamp amidst dark eternity.
[02:09.709]A bitter moon hovered above them.
[02:15.101]The night lit sole by its glow.
[02:20.318]From high in a sky of ominous dye
[02:26.242]in which dark clouds drifted slow.
[02:31.335]So they rode on.
[02:42.514]They rode on.
[03:57.469]They rode with shut eyes as the sun rose.
[04:02.682]Regardless of earth's vanity.
[04:07.450]But with wide-open eyes, they paced the night
[04:13.519]and pondered its mysteries.
[04:18.987]They sat at the crossroads with high and with low,
[04:24.556]yet neither could alter their course.
[04:29.478]Riches were offered unto them,
[04:34.259]yet indifferent and without remorse
[04:40.223]they rode on.
[04:50.736]Yes they rode on.
[05:01.575]And each lonely vagrant that crossed their path,
[05:07.079]felt how his heart grew cold.
[05:12.096]Yet be marvelled at their scarred faces,
[05:17.688]so beautiful, distant and old.
[05:23.257]Some say they've heard them singing
[05:28.630]in strange tongues of melancholy;
[05:33.816]Of the gods, of the night, and of glory.
[05:39.336]Of the dead, and their memory.
[05:44.092]They rode on.
[05:55.106]They rode on.
[06:06.323]Say good bye to the light.
[06:11.527]Come twilight, come dark night.
[06:27.618]Say good bye to the light,
[06:38.251]Come twilight, come dark night.
[07:33.138]Could you have rode there with them?
[07:38.006]Would you have joined their march?
[07:43.334]Or would you have them ride on?
[07:48.988]Away into the dark?
[07:54.943]Would you have been able to let go?
[08:00.595]Of illusions, of right and of wrong?
[08:06.512]And if they came to die;
[08:12.016]would you have rode on?
[08:17.090]I said no (YES)
