Elvenking Oakensheild Lyrics

Oakensheild Lyrics

Oh pick up flutes and fiddles, a new tune is beginning



A melody forsaken, on the chords of our elders' song



Each note is telling a story, a fragment of existence



Oh people ye who listen, sit down and hear the old man's story







He was standing right in front of me, few steps from where I've been



That day the manor's tower is hiding a sun in agony



Filthy and soiled from head to feet, his sword was rusty and ruined



But in his eyes I caught a fleeting glimpse of his pride







Bridge: He said:



"Seven moons painted the skies before I reached for the chosen one



A travel through the starlit horizons, through the magic's way



On the path that leads us to knowledge, a light fall of rites 







and believes from past forgotten times



Outshining the malice on our thoughts !







Chorus: A story that came from so many miles and years ago



The legend of the magic shield



The elf, the dwarf, the man who carries true faith deep within



Was known by everyone as Oakenshield







I didn't understand the words he said, the silence fell on the scene



A watercolour painted with a thousand shades of feels



A wooden shield tied on his back, the magic wisdom seed



From that day on







Bridge: He told



"From the time when the ancients' glory rules us all, the shield has
been



passed hand in hand to the few, whose hearts are pure and bold



made with the hardwood of Usdu'm, never 







decline his influence on character



outstanding is the power of our will !







Chorus: A story…







Intermezzo: Shield, from the sources of our depths 







in the universal edge



Declining



Shield, from the wounds in your malice grains







"Face up and take a contact with your inner fears



You will find a well of gloominess and humble damp



Make yourself a trace on walk, the power of become



The enchantment is the magic of being"







Solos: Aydan, Jarpen







Slowly fades the light, the story slips away



The old man's tired now: doze off!



"Sleep well, keeper of the shield!"



Mankind could never understand,



the shield remains forever only as a…







Chorus: A story that came from so many miles and years ago



The legend of the magic shield



The elf, the dwarf, the man who carries true faith deep within



Was known by everyone as Oakenshield
