Eluveitie Somber Lay Lyrics

Somber Lay Lyrics

A murky presage roaming the land

To silence the skylarks chant

The somber kiss is at hand

To impart the crimson robe



Heed the dark some maid

Dancing across this equinox

To relegate persistence

As the bleak darkness grows



A cryptal impellent

Devoted to the sublime round



Beholden for the boons of light

Retreating into quietness

We harken the somber lay

We sing the somber lay



Close your eyes and heed and vide

Then you shall see

The sphere revolves as it's promised



Flames flickering deftly

To banish the nipping air

The dark time is at hand

Lighted by bardic chant



Heed the dark some maid

To enwrap all in bleakness

A dark veil o'silence

As quiet insight buds



Darkness roaming the land

Long dead the skylarks chant

The dark vis usurped command

To impart the sallow robe



Sure a new light will come

The life wheel is rotating onward

Given is the promise

Thus assertive we wear on



Life-given impellent

Devoted to the sublime round
