Your soul is a chosen landscape
Where charming masqueraders
and bergamaskers go
Playing the lute and dancing almost
Sad beneath their fanciful disguises
All sing in a minor key
Of victorious love
and the opportune life
They do not seem to believe
in their happiness
And their song mingles with the moonlight
With the still moonlight
sad and beautiful
That sets the birds dreaming in the trees
And the fountains sobbing in ecstasy
The tall slender fountains
among marble statues

Like iridescent water
with silver reflection
The spring night tick away
With its romantic flow
Silent, ethereal, pure
Nostalgic memories of March's ides
The silent waters are kissed
by fresh and delicate scents
Ecstasy pervades me
While the trees indulge
to secrets and mute dances
at the edge of the streams
with lunar deities

Diaphanous Deities

|

|
On long starry column
my soul rises
breathing divine ether
Temple of purification
where ethereal figures lay
their silvery and enigmatic gaze
Shine in ecstasy of pearly light
in the moonlight
Silent and romantic language
Perceivable only by the souls
who have breathed the divine ether
of Diaphanous Deities

Tonight the moon
dreams more languidly
My deepest thoughts
go to her
Watcher
of the distressing night sky
Its sad beauty
"radiates oceans, mountains and woods"
My deepest thoughts
go to her

Starry Cypresses
05:58
|
|||
|
Tonight I'll sleep
under the starry cypresses
With their lullabies
they will envelop me
Like majestic statues
that rise towards the thoughtful sky
Silent eternal guardians
of the oniric symbol
I'll be next to the rising stars
The moon
night's poetry
Accompanies my long meditation
While I begin to dream of
infinite space of aurora

With their deviant kind of Black Metal, White Ward are far away from mediocre. If you’re looking for something different and sophisticated try these guys! You won‘t be disappointed!
