When comes the reign of those who bought their supremacy
Hiding in the shadow
watching the liars
As flows the blood of the trees upon the stone of madness
In the mist of the altar, a black strength is rising
Unstoppable, the great retribution will end in violence
They should never have woken the silent spirits
They should never have come onto these lands
They shouldn't...
The earth is growling, the ground collapsing
Seas are rising, proud and cold, up to the stars
Beasts are sneaking, gnawed by hatred
Ravenous terror waiting for war
All their fears are burning their souls
The Crimson sky, crying for the land
Unleashes his fire like a spear
Calling for the legion,
To purify, to eradicate
All the spirits are crushing the fools !
The Lord set forth his judgement...
Now face the storm, it's time to pay for your sins
Don't look behind you, for your brothers are all dead
Their flesh is torn, their bones are crushed
Guts and brains spread everywhere
The bloodshed has begun, no escape, no way out
