In Umbra Timpului Lyrics

In Umbra Timpului lyrics

Deep into the darkness peering

Long I stood there fearing

Dreaming dreams no mortal ever dared to dream before...

But the silence was unbroken

And the stillness gave no token

And the only word there spoken

Was the whispered word: "Veritas"

This the dark whispered

And an echo murmured back the word

Merely this and nothing more!



Fools and faith conspire

Questions of desire

That they never owned before

Kings without their armour

Men without their honour

We all slip into oblivion



Monuments of distant knowledge and remains

Stare undying from this end into the life

They are the dark inside the night

The ghosts of which the poets write

And the dreams that night's embrace

That slowly leave without a trace...



Eu te slavesc nocturna, cu bolta innoptarii

O, doamna a tacerii,

O, vas al intristarii



Vreau sa m-agat detine, spre cer navala dind

cum viermii de-un cadavru s-agata misunind!



O, suflet sparge-odata, ingustati inchisoare

Si scutura-te-odata de-alest lut pamintesc!



Oh, the scarlet skies

drown the cold sun

Onto the funeral cries of the dying eve

And there's a foreign shade in mine

It's the time's greedy scythe!



Eu te slavesc nocturna, cu bolta innoptarii

O, doamna a tacerii,

O, vas al intristarii



Vreau sa m-agat detine, spre cer navala dind

cum viermii de-un cadavru s-agata misunind!
