Текст песни
[Вступление] Frost gathers on the iron gate The eastern ridge holds back the day [Куплет 1] I walked where the pine roots split the stone Past frozen wells and abandoned homes The wind cut clean through wool and skin Still some small fire burned within [Предприпев] No crown, no oath, no borrowed flame I carried one unbroken name [Припев] Raise the blackened standard high Let the winter hear our cry Through the ash and through the cold There is warmth we will not sell [Куплет 2] The river wore a coat of glass Clouds dragged their bellies over grass Each step rang hard beneath my heel Each wound became a thing to heal [Бридж] When the last blue star descends When the mountain's silence bends From the roots beneath the snow A stubborn living current flows [Припев] Raise the blackened standard high Let the winter hear our cry Through the ash and through the cold There is warmth we will not sell [Аутро] Morning finds the gate undone Black wings turn toward the sun What endured beneath the stone Now walks the frozen world alone
