Lyrics
The land is silent...before the storm!
The atmosphere is calm before an impending storm.
On the vast fields of snow, the wind is blowing strong
The wind blows strongly across vast snowy fields.
With it's frozen cold and relentless touch
The wind's icy and persistent touch is felt.
It leaves a dead and hollow land of ice
Leaving behind a desolate, lifeless land covered in ice.
I have seen through the eyes of a wolf
The speaker metaphorically identifies with a wolf, understanding its pain and solitude.
And felt all its pain and loneliness
They experienced the isolation and suffering associated with the wolf.
The beautiful land opened before my eyes
A beautiful landscape unfolded before them.
Wild as a beast I ran into the night
They ran freely into the wild night like a beast.
The calling of the howling wind
The wind's howl symbolizes a forceful calling.
Is raging in the realms of north
This howl is powerful and widespread in the northern regions.
Creations of ice rising mighty into the skies
Natural formations of ice rise magnificently into the sky.
And treacherous gods shall fall
Even powerful and deceitful gods will face downfall.
Watching through the falling snow
Observing amidst falling snow, there's no visible life.
There's no sign of life
All signs of life seem absent.
The fire has gone out in the whirl of time
The fire of life has extinguished within the passage of time.
Behold the face of thunder
A representation of imminent danger or power.
The storm is getting near
The storm is approaching.
When the sky calls my name, I have no fear
They feel unafraid when the sky beckons them.
The calling of the howling wind
Similar to line 11, a powerful wind's call is referenced.
Is raging in the realms of north
Reiteration of the wind's force in the north.
Creations of ice rising mighty into the skies
Ice formations rise impressively into the sky.
And treacherous gods shall fall
Even deceitful gods will face downfall.
They brought us misfortune,
The gods caused misfortune but will soon face disgrace.
But their honor is about to be crushed
Their honor will be shattered.
My blood flows cold as streams of the north
The speaker's resolve is strong and unwavering.
We'll never let them take our souls
They will fiercely protect their essence/soul.
The calling of the howling wind
A repeated reference to the forceful call of the wind.
Is raging in the north
The powerful wind persists in the north.
Creations of ice, rising mighty into the skies
Ice formations continue to rise impressively.
And treacherous gods shall fall
Again, even deceitful gods will meet their downfall.
Time and time again
Repeated witnessing of the birth of new beginnings.
I witness the birth of a new born star
Experiencing the creation of something new and powerful.
I climb the highest mountain
Metaphorically climbing to seek the essence of a new era.
To find the essence of a new era
The quest for the core or fundamental aspect of a new time.
