Music and lyrics: Tom

Can you see the dawn when the dark nights shroud the Sun

Can you feel a pleasure when your life is full of pain

Tombstones and earth guard the rest of the fallen heroes

Tears drop from eye-lashes like spring rain

Through the gates of hatred and spite

Chorus:

When the darkness grows

And the ancient pride is forgotten

And sly alien poisoned the rivers of life

A nation falls to the realm of oblivion

A kingdom of the Elders of lies

Can you hear a voice when a mouth doesn't talk from fear

Can you be free when your hands are shackled by chains

Where is the palm, which seized Wotan's spear

Destiny calls for the vanguard of the war

Running wind drives the triumphant chariot's wheels

Chorus:

When the cowards rule

And inborn instincts are blunted

The gates of destiny are opened like a medieval grave

From the crowds of slaves rises a man-the son of thunder

Let him proclaim salutations to the brave

Chorus:

Salutation to the brave...
