BENDIDA LYRICS

1. Enter the Sanctuary

Bendida, Bendida!
Praise our Goddess
Bendida, Bendida!
Raise thy horns
Drink the wine
Raise thy swords
Feel the magic
Scream and yell
Live thy dream
Come, join us!

Bendida, Bendida,
Bendida!

2. Legend of Gilgamesh

Leave... the sorrows in the past
The anguish and the pain
They're nothing more than sand
Slipping through thy hands
Leave all the world behind

See, a new beginning comes
A brave new world is born
The rising shining star
Guides thee on thy way
When all light fades away

Gods and ancient deities are clashing
See incoming raging battle in the sky
The Mighty Enlil's rising
Rising thunder from the dark horizon
Glowing burning embers thrown into the past
The Bull of Heaven's falling
Falling heroes at the final battle
Gods of wrath are spilling vengeance to the Earth
The Beauty of Inanna
Inanna sending love and death to the mortals
No one can resist the beauty of the Queen
He is a hero
And semi god
He's the chosen one

He's the very first of the heroes
The creator of feats and miracles
In the time of the myths and wonders
Men and beast shall obey his powers

He's the very first of the heroes
Waiting for the inner insight to come
The creator of feats and miracles
Searching for the holy home of the Sun
In the time of the myths and wonders
Grant with the yearning blessing of Gods
Men and beast shall obey his powers
Death is just another part of the Life

He Who Saw the Deeps
He walks the secret path of life and death
He fought all his life with monsters
Gods and creatures out from hell
He did many feats and wonders
King and Goddess Ninsun' son
He's the first of all the Heroes
Back from time when all begun

Gilgameŝ ê tаdâl

Balāţаm ŝa tusahharu lā tutta
Inǖma ilǖ ibnû awīlǖtam
Mǖtam iŝkunǖ ana awīlǖtim
Balāţam ina qātīŝunu işşabtǖ

Once again Tummal fell into ruin
Gilgamesh built the temple Numunburra
He builds the walls of Uruk
Uruk rises and the House of Enlil
Comes into the legend of the ancient time
He is a hero
And semi god
He's the chosen one

He's the very first of the heroes
The creator of feats and miracles
In the time of the myths and wonders
Men and beast shall obey his powers

He's the very first of the heroes
Waiting for the inner insight to come
The creator of feats and miracles
Searching for the holy home of the Sun
In the time of the myths and wonders
Grant with the yearning blessing of gods
Men and beast shall obey his powers
Death is just another part of the Life

Gilgameŝ ê tаdâl

3. Hunt the Hunter

They're seeking and stalking an innocent prey
Playing for pleasure their game of Death
Messing with things you don't understand
Taking the lives sacred and blessed

Gathering bodies and bones as trophies
Cutting our forest all for your own needs
(You) only know taking, plundering with greed
(but) now time has come (you) to give

Blow the horns and raise thy hands
Now we've got the mission to protect
Sky and earth and sea
Are for all! Just set them free!

Hunt the hunter – eye for an eye
Kill the killer – that's the prize
Break the cages – wild and free
Bite the bullet – let us be

Why don't we face in the equal fight?
Using our own claws and teeth
Your flesh and bones will be torn apart
I'll be watching you die, as you bleed

OCULUM PRO OCULO
DENTEM PRO DENTE
MANUM PRO MANU
PEDEM PRO PEDE

You fools and idiots, killers and thieves
Killing to satisfy your perverse need
Blinded by arrogance, full with your greed
You don't see the eye filling with tears?

Mountains and plains and sky above
Forest and lakes all are our home
Get out from here, why don't you see
Leave us alone, set us free

Blow the horns and raise thy hands
Now we've got the mission to protect
Sky and earth and sea
Are for all! Just set them free!

Hunt the hunter – eye for an eye
Kill the killer – that's the prize
Break the cages – wild and free
Bite the bullet – let us be

4. Vampires' Ball

Through darkness and cold of the north distant land
Will I find peace of my mind far beyond?
There immortal life will be calling for you
The grim past drives me away from my home

Dark shadows get close to the mountain of fear
Should I follow you in the hall of the damned?
Peak, covered with ice and obscured by the mist
No one ever leaves the land of undead

Amore
Deep in the Dark Odio
We, Sanguine
Breed of the night Formido
Love, Vampire
Lust in the dream Immortuos
Come with me
Please, let me in

Let the sumptuous ball begin
Once in hundred years
Let thy blood slowly flow from thy veins
Spreading the dark passion wings
Let the thirst be quenched
Salute for the eternal life
Ethereal dance in the air
Sparkles in your eyes
Let the music play in the grand hall
With blood-red enchanting wine
Raise the glasses high
This is the vampires' ball

Just indulge my kiss and become one of us
Will my strength keep me untouched from the lust?
Lips redder than blood, face is whiter than snow
Will you hold me tight when icy wind blows?

Come here by my side and respond to my call
I prepare myself for this opulent ball
Then you even can fly in the eternal sky
You will become glorious queen of the night

Amore
Deep in the Dark Odio
We, Sanguine
Breed of the night Formido
Love, Vampire
Lust in the dream Immortuos
Come with me
Please, let me in

Let the sumptuous ball begin
Once in hundred years
Let thy blood slowly flow from thy veins
Spreading the dark passion wings
Let the thirst be quenched
Salute for the eternal life
Ethereal dance in the air
Sparkles in your eyes
Let the music play in the grand hall
With blood-red enchanting wine
Raise the glasses high
This is the vampires' ball

5. Beast and Man

[The Mage]

Back to the time
When the Earth was young and touched by kiss divine
When the magic was primordial and purified
PER SOMNIUM!

Then from the dusk
Mystic figure of a man and beast arise
When the ominous enemy appears and crossed the line
OBLIVIUM, PHANTASIA!
ERIT BELLUM DESAEVIT

Through the mist and freezing rain
Dancing with the stormy wind
Howling to the starless sky
Following Call of the wild

When the Moon is full and red
Growing hair and shifting shape
When the sun rise up again
He turns from beast to man

Burning red and blazing eyes
Teeth are sharper than a knifes
Cloaked with dark and stormy cloud
Going back to the wild

Leading the pack of the wolves (Beware)
Facing the hordes nameless foes (Onward)
Straight to the clash and the pain (Attack)
Reaping and harvest the land

Victorious wild and so free (War Cry)
Unleashing insight hidden beast (The One)
Fly as an eagle alone (Blood Bound)
Straight to the eye of the storm

Living in the dark and lonely cave
Two hundred years until he’d been awake
To lead the great final battle against
Armies of the dark

One in darkness hermit for the world
(One in the dark)
Keep the secret path of men untouched
(Keep the secret path)
Time has come to raise the flag again
(Time has come to guard the realm)
Guardian of the Realm

TEMPORA FUGIT
MUNDUS NON MUTANTUR
NUNC TEMPUS EST STELLA TENEBRIS

Through the mist and freezing rain
Dancing with the stormy wind
Howling to the starless sky
Following Call of the wild

Running free on snowy tops
Under frozen Moon and stars
He is the last one of his kind
Guardian of the blind

Down from the depths
A new disease is crawling through the ancient land
And the countless enemies defile with swords in hand
OBSCURE UMBRA

Soon at the dawn
They will face the strength and magic of the one
Who can speak the language of the beasts and sacred runes
SANGUIS ET FUROR
IGNIS ET GLORIA
IN FABULA FINIS EST IENS

Burning red and blazing eyes
Teeth are sharper than a knifes
Cloaked with dark and stormy cloud
Going back to the wild

Half a beast and half a man
Story going to its end
Myth becomes a legend soon
Lost in the hidden realm

Running free on snowy tops
Under frozen Moon and stars
He is the last one of his kind
Guardian of the blind

6. Desolated Sea

We're sailing on this desolated Sea
Abandoned shores are lost for centuries
Ice and snow around us freezes our souls
And here we reached the end of the world

We're sailing south and searching for the Strait
We're passing by strange and distant land
Our fleet is lost we're going to the unknown
We hope we'll find the path to the north

Only silence surrounded us
The secret never will be found
We're sailing far, where no one's been
Through Desolated Sea

En las alas de Victoria
Navegamos por el mar
Estamos buscando la orilla
Hasta el fin del mundo

We're sailing on across the raging waves
Infinite ocean close and far way
Clouds and stars above us – magic in the sky
And we have reached the end of the line

Lift the sails, raise flags on the carrack
Years have passed, one day we will come back
Fame and wealth await us when we will return
We'll be the first who circled all the world

Only ocean surrounded us
We see visions no one have seen
We're passing by Land of Fire
Through Desolated Sea

7. Music of the Spheres

See the lost reflections from the stars
If only you open your eyes inside
Hear the astonishing tune above
If only you can open up your mind

Orbits and the motion of the spheres
They’re circling each other on their way
Journey with stellar astronomy
And you can hear the greatest harmony

A chord and tone
On high and low
A great and small
It spreads on all

Splendid is the music of the spheres
A melody for all those who can hear
A symphony of many circling orbs
And for eternal greatness from above

See the cosmic light from distant stars
Of galaxies and nebulas so far
Realize the meaning of the signs
And you will find forever who we are

A chord and tone
On high and low
A great and small
It spreads on all

Splendid is the music of the spheres
A melody for all those who can hear
A symphony of many circling orbs
And for eternal greatness from above

Path through ecliptic plane (Equinox)
With the dance of gravity (To solstice)
Bound in celestial sphere (Musica)
In astral obliquity

A chord and tone
On high and low
A great and small
It spreads on all

Splendid is the music of the spheres
A melody for all those who can hear
A symphony of many circling orbs
And for eternal greatness from above

8. The Fern Flower

Behind a wall of dread and fear
A flower is blooming once in a year
When the sun reaches the solstice
Magic rises in the night

It grants the power of life eternal
Only by good heart it could be found
In the place kept by demons
A flower is blooming in the night

I BEAR THE SIGN – CRACK IN THE SKY
BLOOMING IN THE NIGHT – FERN FLOWER OF LIFE

Walk the path of pain and sadness
And know – all the magic comes with a price
There's a light in the heart of darkness
But the only way is to sacrifice

You may find the core of fear
Deep in the morbid awful night
There's a place beyond the shadows
Where the flower is granting life

AH, IT'S SO HARD TO FIND THE FLOWER
AH, THE FLASH LIGHTS THE NIGHT
AH, PREPARE FOR UPCOMING THUNDER
AH, PERUN CRACKS THE SKY

I BEAR THE SIGN – CRACK IN THE SKY
BLOOMING IN THE NIGHT – FERN FLOWER OF LIFE

JOIN ME IN THE RIDE THROUGH THE OTHER SIDE
WE WILL FIND THE FLOWER OF ETERNAL LIFE

9. Lady of Eternal Winter

Snow is falling from the sky
Veiling the land with white
And once again, it's winter

Frost in the iris of my eye
It's filling up my soul
With beauty and the purest charm

I wish this never ends
So pure and white the world is now
The spring will never come again

Kiss upon the lips
And when my heart is warm
I wish the winter never ever ends

Студ и лед скова света
Покри земята сняг
Отново идва зима

Скреж във моите коси
Замръзнали очи
Студена бяла приказка

Ах, как искам тук да бъде вечна зима
Чист и бял да бъде пак света

Щом във пламъци и жар пламти сърцето
Нека вечна да е зимата

Frozen valleys
Lakes and forest
Fields and rivers
Mountains in snowy white

Frozen nature
Time of legends
So begins the
Icy age of frozen earth

10. Dawn of Man

Once upon a time in a dark and cold cave
A young mind bears an idea and it grows its strength
A man grab with his hand a rod and a stone
All the world has to know a new age was born

The tool makes stronger his weak hand
His tribe rises soon and it rules the land
They tame the fire and the nature elements
So it's shall begin the dawn of man

11. Civilization

We are building our houses from dried brick and stone
Processing metal – tin, iron and gold
We are writing in clay the first cuneiform script
Making a war and exploring the sea

We're inventing the wheel and wielding a swords of steel
Building a wall and even brewing a beer
First civilization in all human history
Rising in awe – get down on your knees

Gods are high in the heaven,
But sometimes they walk among us
They will hear our prayers
And even help us to kill our foes

We shall build a city and rise an Empire
Soon our temples grow higher and higher
Leading our people with god chosen hand
Conquer the sea and conquer the land

Down by the Nile, we are building a pyramid
To praise the pharaoh and all of his deeds
Scientist from Hellas developed astronomy
Math, medicine and philosophy

Three sovereigns and the five god-Emperors
They reign in China, based on the source
Two brothers from the Tiber founded a city there
Roma invicta, Urbs Aeterna

Gods are high in the heaven,
But sometimes they walk among us
They will hear our prayers
And even help us to kill our foes

We shall build a city and rise an Empire
Soon our temples grow higher and higher
Leading our people with god chosen hand
Conquer the sea and conquer the land

Higher than the mountain
Deeper than the sea
Our deed last forever
In eternity

Elam, Mesopotamia
Phoenicia and Egypt
Indus, Ancient China
Rome, Thrace and Greece

12. Middle Ages

Here come the Dark Middle ages
After the fall of Rome
Saddle the horse and gather the forces
Head to Jerusalem

Crashing infidels and the enemies
For we have the right
Burying in the past all the old deities
For one God we trust

Saeculum obscurum
Surge super crucem
In nomine domini
Gladium et ignem

Thousand years from Anno Domini
Since a man was nailed to tree
We gather our armies under crosses
To the holy land

Sand storm rages in Arabia
One thousand and one nights
Then on the Silk Road from South Asia
Dire Black Death will come

Saeculum obscurum
Surge super crucem
In nomine domini
Gladium et ignem

Seculo Seculorum
Spiritus mundi
Soli Deo gloria
In the name of God

13. Apogee

[Instrumental]

14. Demolition

We are poisoning the air
Cutting off the trees
Making the forest desert
Just to feed our greed

We are covering the seashore
With plastic and concrete
We are smothering the Earth
She cannot breathe

We are killing the animals
Locking them in a cage
Eating them as they bleed
Kicking em out of their range

We are polluting the nature
Drunken with our verve
Getting close to our failure
We will get what we deserve

Will we understand?
When we lose what we had
For we are losing our dreams
And our world

Will we realize
All the mess we have done
What we've left behind
When we are dead and gone?

15. The New World

From the dark cold radioactive dust
We bury our greed deep into the past
From the dawn of man to the last of us
Life will bloom again from the frozen ash

Humans leave the earth, will they return someday?
Those who stay revive the Earth again
From the very depths of the planet's tomb
Something will arise, new world will be born

In the debris of cities
And ruins of empires
Only the conscious flies higher and higher
In the land of the ancients
With bequest of the greats
Only the spirit and the will remains

Higher than the mountain
Deeper than the sea
Nothing last forever
In eternity

In time of new utopia
In new world we will live
Our deeds last forever
In eternity
