Noekken Lyrics


Misguiding light or Noekken eyes?

Hiding in water, wandering at nights

While luring folks to where it lives and hides.

You follow marsh lights mesmerized!

Noekken, Noekken! I have spoken.

Noekken, Noekken! My death token!

Misguided by the wandering lights.

In water areas they hide, abide.

Forced to return, they’re here each night!

A watery death is what you’ll find.

A watery death is what you are to find.

Unpromised land’s your lot tonight.

We’ve come for you, you better hold on tight.

Back to the habits of old times!

Follow drauglight

This night

Follow drauglight

Lose yourself to find

This night

Back to the habits of old times!

Mesmerized you go

Back to the spirits of old…

Follow drauglight

Follow corpse-candles we hold

The light drags you down

Join dead forefathers in swamps,

Follow the call!

Many names it has. Noekken is a name.

A seahorse could it be or a handsome man.

Drauglight is here, luring you to death

This is what you see, this is to expect.

A watery death is to expect!

Unpromised land’s your lot tonight.

We’ve come for you, you better hold on tight.

Back to the habits of old times!

Misguided by the wondering lights

In water areas they hide, abide.

Just when they dim you are to scream.

A watery death is what they mean.

Follow drauglight

This night

Follow drauglight

Lose yourself to find

This night

Back to the habits of old times!
