Lyrics
Plunge their beaks into carrion, bringing pestilence ever long
These birds thrust their beaks into decaying flesh, perpetuating a state of never-ending disease
Violent shadows neath the sky, circling vultures, Satan's eyes
Dark, aggressive figures under the sky, likened to vultures representing evil or malevolence
Bloodstained claws, croak of death, ride the hot winds, final breath
Claws stained with blood, signaling imminent death; their presence is marked by the sound of death
Never stop, eternal chase, they spread their wings for the final day
They persistently chase, preparing for a final event, possibly doomsday
On black wings they fly
They soar with dark-colored wings, a symbol of their ominous nature
Scent their victim in the night
They track their prey under the cover of night
On black wings they fly
Similar to line 9, emphasizing their ominous flight with black wings
HAWKS OF HADES NOW WILL RISE!
An announcement that the menacing hawks of Hades are rising
No one knew whence they arose, iron scavengers bringing woe
No one knows their origin, but they bring misery akin to iron scavengers
Tormented souls trapped deep inside, deadly storm hawk's battle cry
Souls in agony trapped within these creatures, and their cries are akin to a storm's battle cry
Once unleashed you can't repent, violent shadows bedim the land
Once they are unleashed, their malevolent presence cannot be undone, darkening the entire land
Never stop, eternal chase, they spread their wings for the final day
Reiteration of their unceasing pursuit, gearing up for a final event
On black wings they fly
They continue their ominous flight with dark wings
Scent their victim in the night
They track and sense their prey during the night
On black wings they fly
Similar to line 25, emphasizing their ominous flight with black wings
HAWKS OF HADES NOW WILL RISE!
Reiteration that the malevolent hawks from Hades are rising
Like a whirlwind from the underground
Describing their arrival like a destructive force from the depths
They ascend to bring the end
They ascend to bring about the end of something
Like a whirlwind from the underground
Similar to line 33, describing their ascent from the underground
From Hades darkness evil has been sent
Evil emanates from the darkness of Hades, suggesting their origin as malevolent
Violent raging force Hawks of Hades
They are a violently raging force, likened to the hawks of Hades
Mad locusts on their course Hawks of Hades
They move fiercely and destructively, akin to mad locusts, signifying chaos
On black wings they fly
Continued ominous flight on dark wings
Scent their victim in the night
Continued tracking and sensing of prey during the night
On black wings they fly
Similar to line 45, emphasizing their ominous flight with black wings
HAWKS OF HADES NOW WILL RISE!
Final declaration of the rising of the menacing hawks from Hades
