lyrics

Within the forest
At the roots of the mountain
The orphan's cry is heard
Feeble and lost
Only afflicted
By the dying mother's words

’’Kindred child,
Cherish the thought of hope
As you set out
from the heart of the mountain
As a lurking shadow you rise
Shrouded by the autumns guise’’

Born from temptation
Burdened by solitude
Forever searching for it's kin
Knows not the sin
Nor the heresy of it's birth

Vernal tears
Like dewdrops on a meadow
Caress it's cheek
Like a mother's touch

Beneath the willow
The youthful withers
Embedded in leafs

A once hopeful has faded
Unending seasons has past
Sorrow take's it's heart
As the final breath speaks clarity

’’Kindred child,
Cherish the thought of home
And don’t set out
from the heart of the mountain
As a lurking shadow you will fall
Shrouded by the autumns cold’’

This sounds exactly how I want black metal to sound. I have spent a long time searching for it but this is precisely what I was looking for. homocarbonis

Kelle Surut Soi

supported by 6 fans who also own “Elegy for a Child”

I'd say Havukruunu is the rightful holder of the Crown and the mantle of Quorthon. Epic choirs, vikingesque themes and tales from the other times, of the Finnish paganism back in the days before our ancestors were brought to the cross and forced to kneel while feeling the bloody sword of saviour on their throats made to kiss the hand of murderers who burnt thousands, tore down our holy places and took our holy days. Eyes teary I listen to these songs, never forgiving the crimes of the cross! Peikonmieli
