The Lamentable Tragedy of Deirdra Lyrics


The lamentable tragedy of Deirdra

(Lyrics by Yoltar / Aed Morban)

Cairn

Absurd totems consecrated to the gods of iron and fire ruling our land

Carnage and bloodshed, looting your pleasures and I am your devoted myrmidon

Spreading the blood of my gallant brothers as I feel it flowing on my hands

Weary I am to cut the flesh and I drown our mother under those vermilion tears

I deny you grotesque deities, my broken blade testifies of my wrath

Never will I serve ye again, for thee precious Deirdra my life will be vowed

Bard

And thus Cairn chooses his path, betraying his race and gods

Riding the way of heart, renouncing the elder’s law

Gods of War

Omen didn’t lie, The young fool betrayed

His destiny’s traced, Renegades shall die

Bard

Will their love be stronger than demise ?

Only gods can decide, Thus they shall be on their guards

Eritrain Drun dichnath… impending armageddon !

Bards

Cairn betrayed the law of his ancestors

Cairn betrayed the law of Rylkia the wolf

Cairn betrayed the law of his ancestors

Cairn betrayed the law, his doom is so to cease

Cairn

Infamous and despotic lords, I deny thee all and your ignominies

Prisoner of my destiny since the dawn of my glorious existence

Ignorant I killed my brothers, saw their boiling blood on my shameful blade

Rylkia, you barbaric deity, may you char in the flames of my wrath !

Narrator

As Cairn has met his fate, Albiorix treated with the mighty Kran

Betrayer daughter shall perish, captured by her king… father

Controlled by the Kronians, Albiorix goes insane

Requiring Balor's head… against his daughter's life

Will Cairn have the courage to slay Balor the great

To repudiate his race and be forever damned

In fury Cairn decapitates, and rides towards MinAstarach

Three times the head curses his betray and soon Cairn arrives in Ultraigh

But so is doom for Deirdra is slain in front of the Formor in a daze

Kronians' dark designs have succeeded, as Cairn is lost alone with his madness
