Wolfghosts Lyrics
Lies the well-hidden castle of frost And the paths to its towers, carved in ice.Are guarded by wolves of ominous size.Great are their numbers in winter's realmAnd great is their strength by all the accountsAnd nobody passes the borders unseenBy the fiery eyes of the servants of wild Yet some of the evil spirits Those most unobedient and vileHave been cast out of the enchanted domainAnd doomed to forever roam the landWhen full-moon casts its evil beamsOn silent forests and ice-clad streams Unlucky travellers may then hearA chilling howl of anger afarThere the downfallen children of snowEach of the twelve expelled once Have gathered a threatening army of wolvesTo avenge upon mankind the curse laid on themPeople of highlands, men of the north - folk of fierce courage, endurance and might - yet evenThey fear the onslaughts of the phantoms at night, and above all their leaders, whom they named wolfghosts - dreadful masters with white on their breast and bellow-like nostrils,inclined for warm fleshAnd when over the sinister mountains of north Storms forth a raging blizzard of frost Through the snowclouds may sometimes be seenFoggy shades of rushing terrible beastsAhead of the flock leaps a tremendous wolf -one of the twelve in hunger and wrath Gnashing its fangs of iron and steel,whilst leading the majestic legion of nightPity to those forlorn who may ever perceiveThe triumphant king of the nebular herd...
