Rakoth Og'elend Lyrics

Dwelling in the depths, lurking as unnoticed
As the shadow can't lurk in the gloom of the Underdark's night
Ilythiiri, as we Drow call ourselves
Rejoice life and deeds in the name of Queen Lloth
Whether skinning the human on the sacrificial altar
Or fighting another House to obtain the bounty of Spider
Queen Drow remembers the wisdom of millenia
carved in blood of ancestors
"Who survives is who wins"...

City is shrowded with invisible aura
Atmosphere of black vanity consumes the unsound Underdark
And the male drow is nothing but a servant
So dares not to think - "Matrons know best"
Darkness is the way of the drow
Hate and scorn to all who does not belong to us
So death to the elves, pain to the humans
Disgrace to the dwarves...
Drow supreme!

"Jal khaless zhah waela..."
"Ilharessen zhaunil alurl..."
"Vel'uss zhaun alur taga lil Quarval-sharess?.."
"L'elend zhah alurl..."
"Lloth tlu malla!"
"Ssussun pholor dos!"

Hearken, ye Loethe!
Do not hide thyself
Behind the backs of the priestess
ready to die by thy word
I, Azamath Tormtor, shall not follow thy path
I am free - I own my way
Realize - I am different,
I am not thine and thy rules do not affect me,
thy orders are in vain
Be aware of me and thou wilt not be amazed
When thy temples are desecrated and burnt...

Invisible I sneak the caves, to Arach-Tinilith
I'm gradually getting closer and closer
And finally I'm here standing by the walls, unseen
Vel'Xundussa failed once again, the spies are perfect
But I am led by scorn and rage
The spirit of rebellion lives inside of me
"Lil waela lueth waela ragar brorna lueth wund nind,
kyorlin elghinn..."
"Oloth zhah tuth abbil lueth ogglin..."
Good old sayings serve me now and turn against you...

Hearken, ye Loethe!
I know I shall perish
In battle against thy web that binds the minds of the drow
"To walk apart from the House and Queen
Is to walk into the grave" - My grave is the flame

Nothing can possess me and noone I obey
I am heretic, Og'elend, and I am proud of my fate
So let it all be as it is
We shall see what will follow...
If something will...
