Текст песни The Night and Unbending Intent (Gardarika) с переводом

Sunset’s burning down

Cold streets are deserted

Tardy passersby are

Hurrying to their quarters

Only a little matchboy standing tired against the wall

He didn’t sell anything

He has nothing to bring home tonight

On this Christmas Eve

Outer world is frozen

Consciousness just fades

Mind becomes so drowsy

Suddenly he sees a lady’s face in this reverie

Oh, it seems so unreal

Can you hear, she’s appealing

To you

So listen to the whisper of Queen of the Night

Her celebration’s started and you are invited so

She is calling

She is calling

The moment is right, take your fate in your hand —

You need just the night and unbending intent.

Let’s make the fireworks

Of the wood and sulphur

Sequence of flashbacks

Time when you didn’t suffer

Feel the warmth again, the serenity of a child

Spread your wings and aspire

You are free while the match

Is on fire

Strike another match

Catch the new dream vision

Feel the freedom’s touch

And then make a decision

Do you really want to return inhospitable home

To your hated stepparents

You’re a sponger apparent

For them

So listen to the whisper of Queen of the Night

Her Majesty Requests, don’t be impolite — listen

She’s calling

She’s calling

The moment is right, take your fate in your hand —

You need just the night and unbending intent.

Decide now!

What you’re searching for in this place?

Everyone you loved and knew now’s gone yeah

Decide now!

Your attempts are weak and senseless

Oh, who cares if your work left undone yeah

Decide now!

Lonely bird rush to the ether

Night can not go on forever ah

Night can not go on forever ah

Have no fear!

You have nothing more to lose there

But your way becomes increasingly narrow

Shed no tears

It’s always a little sad to leave your

home, even if this place is vale of sorrow

Don’t worry

It can heal thy pain and fever but

Night can not go on forever ah

Night can not go on forever ah

Beware, I can no more guard you

Now freezing is getting harder

Just a step towards me and I’ll take you away
