Píseň: The Holy Grail

Interpret:
Blind Guardian
Album:
Beyond The Red Mirror
We, together
Change the world forever
What a cheerful sound
Synchronize me
Supervise me, mother
No more fooling around


Whatever may come
It shall be from the ashes
He shall rise, I know


And though it hurts me
Don't be surprised, dear mother
Longing to see his end


Don't call it
Hopelessly insane
I go and grasp the grail
But in a graceful way
Illegally, my aim
The grail will cross the border now


Don't tell me that you're innocent
Don't tell me it's divinely ordained by the saints
My demons, my saviors
I weep for all of them
Suffered in vain


My wayward son, you might disturb me
Carry the flame
Till dying embers will stop gleaming


There on the battlefield she sings
Praise, hallelujah
The Holy Grail's on its way now
Magna eterna
Magna eterna sings
Your journey's over
The Holy Grail's on its way now


Do as it's foreseen
Come and meet the king
There's no choice
For the word it must be
Real, my righteous brother
Fear you soon will know


So, on the fourteenth day passover
He took the firstborn sons
Execute him and now act as
Judas, the chosen one


So after all, in vain
I've met him and found the grail
Cause in a skillful way
I'll change to keep alive 
Eternal lie, I'll be the one


Key to life, be the eclipse
Voices from the river Styx
Come to be the Nemesis
Kiss of death
Crucifix and the grail


I've traveled far on hidden pathways
The Holy Grail
Who would have thought that I will hold it
The Holy Grail


There on the battlefield she sings
Praise, hallelujah
The Holy Grail's on its way now
Magna eterna
Magna eterna sings
Your journey's over
The Holy Grail's on its way now


Don't tell me that you're innocent
Don't tell me that there is a chance to be free
The grail's sent, my way ends
I creep along with the shadows
And resurrected
He comes marching in
There he is
Good lord forgive my sins


Once I've crossed the river Styx
At Sheol's gate, I know
Key to the apocalypse
I have sealed it with a kiss
Nothing that I want to do
Hades is calling
Wake the witch, who'll be the brave one?
Don't say what he's like
Full of voices comes the ninth wave
Don't say what it's like
Beyond the door


There on the battlefield she sings
Praise, hallelujah
The Holy Grail's on its way now
Magna eterna
Magna eterna sings
Your journey's over
The Holy Grail's on its way now


Norns are howling
Norns are prowling
