From Where I Hold The Sky Songtext
von The Incantus

Distant figures part the morning mist
Banks that billow roll through their wake
Dawn breaks, breath the wildfire glow
Three companions march on
Beloved fallen carried on high
Great golden flame, banish deepest night

Vaulted skies cracked as you fell
Even they wept for you
Your repose waits on the hill
Journeys end where land and sky collide
Last rites, a farewell by fire
One last song to send you beyond
Ascend ancient crest, ancestors attest
No pain assuaged, nor sleep, nor rest


I, sole heir, to this my dying day
The howling beyond now bellows my name
A clarion call that rings and resounds
Astride the veil, only now I see
The carried fallen is me

We, stoic as stone
Three voices rise to invoke
To call upon the old ones, heed us now

All-Mother below, Earthen womb, great boundless unknown
Break slumbering ground, skyward, strike a stone to their name
All-Mother, hear us at our darkest, we need you now
Our life′s blood departs upon your summits shroud

All-Father above, foe-hammer, great thundering tide
Strike down with pyres light, a parting gift of flame

I, sole heir, to this my dying day
Last rites by fire, forever I shall stay
From where I Hold the Sky
