Possessed by Steel

The gods gave us steel Its charm penetrated our hearts Enchanted by magic power Swords and armour we forged The earth has been dug Fiery stoves fed our forests Clouds of smoke covered sun That was no longer our God We marched though unknown lands The earth trembled beneath our feet Woe betide those who to stop us Dead bodies graced our bloody trail The gods gave us steel The cold penetrated our souls Its splendour blinded our enemies Nothing could stop us We vowed loyalty and devotion To unknown gods who sneered us We laughed in the face of death Bewitched by the call of war At the end of the world Beyond the horizon of sorrow Dark armies hatched from the abyss In the clouds of black smoke We could not see what's beyond the horizon Death has spread its wings over the enemy Black flags flapped in the clouds Issuing a spooky ominous sound The sun and the moon hid behind the horizon In the land of eternal cold and ice When we came fight the last battle The pale gloomy dusk, we marched In a close-order armoured column Fearless and full of pride Across from the enemy hidden in the mist Swords shining with eerie light Axes pierced armours Falling thunders tearing the earth Bloody storm overthrow our hearts In the foggy grey mirage Ghosts tormented the fallen The bitter cold, one could see from the distance We sharpened our swords to keep warm Piercing sound rent the silence The gods unleashed their chariots Storms lightened up by the thunders In the rain and mud we followed the chariots
