Grimland Domain

Borknagar

The silence was utter, the sleep was long

A torment for even the brave

Peals of thunder even did not forsake

The lifeless soil of this eternal-white land



A domain of no mercy - White, so bright

As a day of calm, flawless might

Beware the coming of night

The shade of essential ingenuity

Acknowledge the darkness, link of dawn



The branches hung low

Softly covered by snow

Even the strongest will

Recoil beneath their silent chill



See the plains so eternally white

Bright, in spite of even the night

To be where the eagles fly

With a haughty hunters eye



Feel the kiss of the silver draped frost

Your age-old toil, haunted and lost

High up there, where His ravens once flew

The lightning strikes - even deep in the snow



"You have to wake, wipe the ice from your eyes"
