"The glorious plain" by Winterfylleth, (with lyrics)

Winterfylleth:"The glorious plain", (from the album "The threnody of triumph", 2012):

That tract of earth is not, over mid-earth,
Fellow too many peopled lands,
But it is withdrawn,
Through creations might,
From wicked men!

Beauteous is the plain,
With enchantments blessed,
With the sweetness of earth,
Distinctive is the island,
And noble its makers,
Who the land founded

That is a pleasant plain,
Green wolds,
Spacious under blue skies;
There may not rain nor snow,
Nor rage of frost, nor fire´s blast,
Nor fall of hail, nor heat of sun,
Nor barren cold, nor winter shower,
The plain endures forever

That glorious land is higher by twelve fold
Of fathom measure,
As us the skilful have informed,
Sages, through wisdom,
In writings show,
Than any of those hills
That brightly here with us
Tower high!
Under the stars,
Serenity lies ´oer the glorious plain,
The sunny bower glitters
The trees ever stand green!

That noble land with blossoms filled
Nor hills nor mountains there
Nor stony cliffs towering high,
As here with us,
Nor mountain-caves & hilly chains
Thereon rests aught unsmooth,
The noble fields dwell under skies
With delights in bloom!

(lyrics: Winterfylleth)

(As I mentioned last time, my number of visits to the rest of the world are....erm....limited! Germany, Sweeden and Norway, and that´s it....One of the countries I would like to visit one day is England, that´s for sure. It seems to me quite easy to imagine the great pleasure by travelling across England together with Winterfylleth-frontman Chris Naughton while drinking loads of english tea and maybe....erm....something a little bit stronger :-) Naughton is, in my opinion, one of the most down to earth and talented frontmen, the black metal-genre has to offer. So it might be kinda cool letting him guide me through England and learning about its history....not to mention Winterfylleth´s intelligent take on black metal. The Manchester-based band´s third full-length "The threnody of triumph" is a brilliant lesson in how, norwegian black metal can be taken a couple of steps further and into something, I think, truly english....:-) I simply LOVE the album from start to finish, especially when it comes to track 5 "The glorious plain". Glorious? INDEED :-) :-) :-)

See you next time with yet another great heavy metal-song with lyrics, and this time....well....it has turned out, that Chris Naughton and I have the same taste in metal....BIG SURPRISE....or I mean NOT :-)

See you!

Kind regards
