O, so it is written son
When all waters and land you see
All around came to birth
Man and beast was one
And the gods of the sky
Walked the face of the earth
Few free and innocent
Man strolled paths next to those
Of beasts seeing no signs
But stars in the sky
Knowing of day and night
Of rain and winds, hunger and fright
But not of death nor of life
While all was at ease with all
Living creatures and beast and the gods
Of the sky enjoyed the lavish riches of this world,
Giants rose out of their caves and took to the skies
Challenging the gods for the power of the universe.
Only when the great halls of Valhalla stood aflame
Lighting up the worlds all around did the gods
Wake up from their drunken sleep, to speed through the heavens
And clash with the giants in the greatest battle ever seen.
Heads arms and legs of both giant and god fell down
Upon the earth and... The weapons... The swords of shining metal...
And those who found them and took these shining blades
In hand were only men, now man was the master of this world.
The story tells of stormy skies
Black clouds gathered up high
And of lightning striking from a
Burning bloodred sky
The mountains crumbled to the seas
Earth shook the worlds collide
Ending the age of gods
Gbirth to our time
And man lived and learned
The secret of steel
Ore of earth - fire of sky
Forged is blade of gods
Blood and iron
So the age to learn and to teach
For man begins, the power to know
The blood and iron discipline, and
Tell the story of how man was granted
These shining blades of steel
Knowing of the past she will know
Of the tomorrow and man shall reign, yes,
Even conquer other worlds and she will set
Sails on her starships sailing across the
Black space and become the new gods of the skies.
The skies...
Bathory was a Swedish heavy metal band formed in 1983 by Quorthon (real name Lars-Göran Petrov). Considered pioneers of both black metal and Viking metal, they have profoundly influenced the underground music scene. The band's name derives from the infamous Hungarian Countess Elizabeth Bathory, known for her bloody practices and the legend surrounding her. Bathory released a series of fundamental albums, including "Blood Fire Death" (1987), considered a landmark in black metal, and "Hammerheart" (1990), which introduced folk and Viking elements. Other important albums are "Twilight of the Gods" (1996) and "Requiem" (2001). Among their most representative songs are "Total Destruction", "In League with Satan", "The Lake", "Equimanthorn" and "Outro Aeternum". Quorthon, the band's only constant member, handled all musical and production aspects until his death in 2004.
