Cocytus (The Ice Terror)歌词完整版
Walking on frozen crystal,
trembling in gloom eternal.
Pay attention where you tread –
Can’t you see a thousand heads?
Hardened by the great coldness,
slowly by their pain oppressed.
Every tear of souls who dwell
flows and forms this drain of hell…
All feelings on the face freeze,
sensing now a sudden breeze.
All treason is punished here,
and all traitors end… end here.
The ice ties lips with the tears
of the damned wretched traitors,
dog-like faces give witness
to sad hearts in frozen dress.
As drawn by gravity’s law
towards the centre, I saw
all their mourning tears turn back –
a wall of ice tears they smack…
So the sadness reappears
and the anguish increases.
Betrayer! Betrayer!
Do you understand me?
Betrayer! Betrayer!
Can you understand me?
Betrayer! Betrayer!
Tell me your name
or here rest your fame!
Like the hungry devour bread,
here one gnaws a frozen head,
showing all his brutal hate,
on the other’s nape he grates.
Such fierce food of the sinner!
Wiping his mouth in the hair
of the head of his comrade…
and these were the words he said:
“One by one I saw my sons die,
set free from the sobs in their sleep,
locked in a tower black as night,
now blind, but still I did not weep.
I bit my forlorn flesh thereat,
groping in my woeful prison,
I desired so much to eat that
the hunger overcame the pain.
…and since then the evil dreams tear
the dark curtain of the future.
And since then the evil dreams tear
the dark curtain of the future.”
The ice ties lips with the tears
of the damned wretched traitors,
dog-like faces give witness
to sad hearts in frozen dress.
In this cold, stark place I knew
there’s a fate shocking yet true –
even those who live above
have their place here in reserve.
So the sadness reappears
and the anguish increases.
Betrayer! Betrayer!
Do you understand me?
Betrayer! Betrayer!
Can you understand me?
Betrayer! Betrayer!
Tell me your name
or here rest your fame!
