Songtext The reckoning of man Burzum

The reckoning of man

I remember the shining sanguine Sun

the frozen forests and fallen leaves,

and the hollow hill under the sky.



I remember the complex cold caverns,

the long tranquil tunnels

and the large underground lakes.



I remember the dim depths of the Earth,

the lucid lady in the light

and her sacred stanza.


I remember the bright beast in her boat,

the tall troll telling her tales,

and the honey in the haunted hollow.



I remember the protected password,

the secret soothing symbol

and the old ODal objects.



I remember the red runes on the rock,

the spell of seeing being sung,

and the bold opening up of the beautiful burrow.



I remember the coming of man reborn,

the birth of BalDur the bright,

the return of a world that was woefully lost.
