1. Prologue (Book Of Light I)

Relax and calm your agitated mind
Remember that we're only here to play the game
The game of life
Nothing is true – random believe
So close your eyes and open the book of light

2. Illumination

Control this endless runnin stream – the river of your thoughts
Defeat the doubting voice inside – the call of reason
Now gather shining vision dreams – that pour down from beyond
And see lost ways drowned in the drifts – their time has come again

Relax this restless mind
Relax this broken body
Relax this tortured soul
We fall in ecstasy

Illumination – a higher will
Illumination feel the fire
Illumination – a higher will
Illumination – soul on fire

Calm the storm upon the sea – upon the ocean of your mind
Rule the chaos deep inside – emotions coming down
Now gather light – empyreal light – that comes up from the void
And watch the drifting shades they're taking shape again

Relax this restless mind
Relax this broken body
Relax this tortured soul
We fall

Illumination – a higher will
Illumination – feel the fire
Illumination – a higher will
Illumination – soul on fire

We immerse in a shining dark
Our bodies dissolve in the light of the gods
We return to our source again
In the golden light of a new dawn

3. Cairn (A Dying Age)

Black against the burning sky the standing stones – their dark silhouettes
And we sing the forgotten songs for mother earth and moon and sun
Lost against the rising tide the ancient torch – it's withering flame
We dance in ecstasy for our waning gods – their fading light

It's a dying age
A dying age
Buried beneath forgotten sidhe
A dying age
A dying age
Buried so deep – lost in time

Swallowed by history all pride and virtues – all these shining souls
We fought a hopeless war for freedom and love and peace
Drowned in seas of blood all dreams and hopes – a falling world
And we walked one last time to the holy cairn

It's a dying age
A dying age
Buried beneath forgotten sidhe
A dying age
A dying age
Buried so deep – lost in time
It's a dying age

4. No More Pain

Memories of something higher
Of a harmony beyond all matter
I grubbed too deep too far below
Caught between light and painful dark
A soul imprisoned in a crumbling cell
This mortal coil will perish
This earthly flesh shall pass away
Torture's coming down

There's no more pain

A glance of peace so deep inside
Of our pure and shining core
I flew too high too far aloft
Caught between peace and inner strife
A spirit trapped in a withering shell
This earthbound shape will vanish
This restless mind shall dissolve
Fear is falling down

There's no more pain

The tides are turning
The yonder shore's ahead
The winds are changing
Time to put to sea
There'll be no more dreams of decay
No more visions of decomposing
We dissolve to rise again
At Tir Taingiris plains

There's no more pain

6. Emain Ablach

Emain Ablach – realm beyond dark
Emain Ablach – shining sphere
Emain Ablach – dreams will be ours
Emain Ablach – shining sphere

I walk deep tonight
The paths of long lost memories
Dead but dreaming
The frontiers are coming down
Dreams are reaching out for us
A maze of worlds waits beyond
Wake up – Inside yourself
Wake up – Wake up now
Wake up – Beyond all dreams
Wake up and see

Emain Ablach – kingdom of dreams
Emain Ablach – shining sphere

The gates are open wide
I walk through and leave this world behind
Alive but disappearing
The walls of sleep are coming down
Emania is calling us
We immerse in endless depths
Wake up – Inside yourself
Wake up – Wake up now
Wake up – Beyond all dreams
Wake up and see

I feel you coming closer
Ghosts of the lost and the gone
Your urgent call burns inside of me
I'll follow you into the light

Wake up – Inside yourself
Wake up – Wake up now
Wake up – Beyond all dreams
Wake up and see

Emain Ablach – realm beyond dark
Emain Ablach – shining sphere

7. All Those Years

Smile – no smile on this face for so long (too long)
Love – lost love just a waning dream
Now watch the bridges burning – there's no looking back
All those wasted years no turning back

All those years – and I'm getting stronger now
All those years – and I fly again

Passion – no passion just fading hopes (there was no hope)
Voice – without voice for so many years
Now watch the bridges burning – there's no looking back
All those wasted years – no turning back

All those years – and I'm getting stronger now
All those years – and I fly again
All those years – and I'm getting stronger now
All those years – and I fly again

Power – no power to see the truth (the lie)
Blind – so blind for a crumbling world
Now watch the bridges burning –there's no looking back
All those wasted years – no turning back

All those years – and I'm getting stronger now
All those years – and I fly again
All those years – and I'm getting stronger now
All those years – and I'm back in the light

All those years – and I'm getting stronger now
All those years – and I fly again
All those years – and I'm getting stronger now
All those years – and I'm back in the light

8. Morrigan

Life – so weak and brittle
Life – so fragile
Life's too bright and clear to fear the day – the morn
End the sleep – awake!
End the mourning
The end is just a gate
In Tir Na n'Og we'll rise
Life – so pure and shining
Life – so sacred
Life's too frail and mellow to praise the dark – to moum
Awake from all your fears
Awake from weakness awake – just a first rite
In Tir Na n'Og we'll shine

Just to guide you home I've come for you
Upon the fields of blood I hear your cries
Your last breath I'll take to save your light

I welcome you beyond – on the other side
Just to guide you home I've come for you
Upon the fields of blood I hear your cries
Your last breath I'll take to save your light
I welcome you beyond – in the hall of souls

9. Ardour Of Will

See their blasphemy
See their hypocrisy
See their litanies are built on lies
Avake from self-deception
Awake from a false humility
Awake and break the chains of the fear they spread
So watch out for the fire we set ablaze
Feel the ardour of our will
The joys of life we praise
The pleasures of the earth
Their saint's call is drowned by our lust
So watch out for the fire we set ablaze
Feel the ardour of our will

We are the dammed – we are bedeviled
We are the true heirs of the gods
We are the doomed – we are cursed
We carry the ancient torch on and on

Rise from the doubts they sow
Arise from the guilt they preach
Arise in the light cleared of their forked tongue
No saviour – no messiah
No indulgence for your sins
No one ever bears the blame for you
So watch out for the fire we set ablaze
Feel the ardour of our will

We are the dammed – we are bedeviled
We are the true heirs of the gods
We are the doomed we are cursed
We carry the ancient torch on and on

(Bagahi-Rune)

10. Fear A Bhata

A fhir a bháta is na horó eile
A fhir a bháta is na horó eile
A fhir a bháta is na horó eile
Ceád mile failte gach ait a te tú

Theid mé suas ar an groc is aired
Feach a bhfeic mé an fear a bháta
An dtig tú anocht nó an dtig tú amarach
No Muna dtig tú idir is trua atá mé

A fhir a bháta is na horó eile
A fhir a bháta is na horó eile
A fhir a bháta is na horó eile
Ceád mile failte gach ait a te tú

Tá mo chroíse briste bruité
Is trie na deoir a'ruith o mo shuile
An dtig tú inniú nó am bidh me suil leat?
No an druid mé an doras le osna tuirseach?

A fhir a bháta is na horó eile
A fhir a bháta is na horó eile
A fhir a bháta is na horó eile
Ceád mile failte gach ait a te tú

Theid mé suas ar an groc is aired
Chan don fidleir chan don clairsoir
Ach do Stuirithoir an bhata
Is muna dtig tú abhaile is trua atá mé

A fhir a bháta is na horó eile
A fhir a bháta is na horó eile
A fhir a bháta is na horó eile
Ceád mile failte gach ait a te tú

11. Vanity

Feel the shiver in the haze
Dark clouds are towering – blacken the sky
The rising winds are gathering all their strength
Turning cold so cold
A dreary day as grey as this
What will remain and last?

Vanity – everything fades away
Kingdom rise and fall again
Vanity – everything passes by
What's once solid now melts away

Mountains crumble – turn to dust
Oceans rise and flood the land
All memories get washed away
Turning dark – so dark
A dreary day as grey as this
What will remain to pass?

Vanity – Everything fades away
Kingdoms rise and fall again
Vanity – Everything passes by
What's once solid now melts away

And high on the hill
Beyond the crumbling city walls
You see the endless horizon
And everything looks like nothing
And all your anger – all your fears
All your ambitions – your desires
Are falling off – are falling down
And nothing remains
But light – and peace – and silence...

12. A New Kaos Rising

A vicious and infernal storm is drawing near
Churning up an angry raging ocean
The malicious roaring surf is breaking in
Washing away all days – the present and the past
The urgent tidal flow is growing stronger now
Your rotten raft is shattered by the waves
Watch the rising tide – watch the flood returns
We drown the gods of fate in seas of blood
We're calling THANATEROS

Kaos arise like the oceans – like the seas
Kaos arise – arise again
Kaos arise like the waves come rushing in
Kaos arise again

We praise the gods of death – the gods of love
The book of light illuminates the depths
The waves proclaim the coming of the ancient gods
And now your sins get washed ashore – there's no deliverance
We're calling THANATEROS

Kaos arise like the oceans – like the seas
Kaos arise – arise again
Kaos arise like the waves come rushing in
Kaos arise again

I see the sun breaking through the clouds
(The fields of dreams are thriving all around)
The ocean spreads in peace and harmony
(The withered ones forever swallowed by the sea)
We're calling THANATEROS

Kaos arise like the oceans – like the seas
Kaos arise – arise again
Kaos arise like the waves come rushing in
Kaos arise again

13. Epilogue (Book Of Light II)

Now rise again from the abyss within
Open your eyes and see: The pack's reshuffled
So enjoy the game and let's close the book of light this time..
