1. The Dark Fire
It appeared one day on the smoking and naked planet
Grey and burnt a thick cloud, dark and brilliant
It was produced by an unusual and different fire
It raised up to the sky tongues like palm leaves.
The DarkFire was the soul of the Earth who stealthy
wandering by the remains of his corpse
It burns without ever being consumed this primordial fire
thick and brilliant it reaches the sky as dark as the dusk
And moves the high spirits within itself.
Five are hidden into the heart of five very special men
They met inside the cloud and gave the beginning
It was the most powerful life that had ever been seen.
The soil was trembling the air oppressing
The fire set its hope on them.
It’s a devouring force that doesn’t stop and doesn’t rest
A male and determinated impulse, a guide for all survivors
It will always burn it will never lose
Its inner strength can’t do anything but rule
it was named the DarkFire.
2. Master Of Bulls
Once the Master of Bulls had human shape
At the time he was blinded by rage
At the peak of his anger he began to change.
First he became raven, war herald, then water snake
A cow swallowed him and a veal was born in his belly.
The invincible bull crushed with his hoofs many survivors
Flesh in rags dangling from his horns.
Big white bull guides the Cattle
He’s given birth to fifty calves in just one day.
The first time the bull saw Bifrost
So calm and silent, big and strong, he went mad.
He killed anyone and could reveal himself.
He broke down and died
His heart swelled enraged and had a sudden giving way
3. The Pure Sound
While the terrible disaster shook our planet
I was on board a space ship in a space mission
And I was alone above left to my destiny.
The clock was a minute to noon
When Death came in without any knock
Into my foggy walled house.
“I’m here to get you. Move it. You’re late.”
Life is beautiful over the clouds.
It’s blue like eternity and snows beyond the veil of sense.
I was born again up
Breeding by pure sound in a silent melody.
Our struggle silently continued worn down and mortal
Her body like a stone bore down on me
And yet was totally invisible.
Death blew me like a twig through a big door
Open on empty and I was dead, or mad.
I wandered about aimlessly in the space
Among Venus fogs in the middle of the moons of Mars
Along the shading edge of Jupiter on icy board
Of Saturn’s rings trying to avoid the sudden Sun’s blast.
Death was strong but for her I was an invicible enemy.
“Go away!”, I told her, “My hour is far off.”
But Death was closed to me and held out to me her fingers
As moved by misterious threads.
I ran in a great rush to escape her and in that runaway
I fell down like a ripe fruit in this place where I am.
4. Against The Erudite
5. Colours
I was tired of the bare world
I had contempled it too long
Than I foretasted a mad expedition
My need to leave and release my immagination
I’m tired of a country filled both vapours
And grey mould emanations, grey trees, no leaves, no flowers on branches
they are scared to open the doors
and facing the luck of a night too dark but
i want colours so much I’m ready to open all the doors
I’m dreaming blue sea, green and shrill
And a real world filled with people
I’m dreaming old song and red wine
To warm me at the fire place
When I solve riddle I’m a miracle
I dive in the Ether and I spread around me a
magic Silver brightness ‘cause I want colours so much
I'm ready to open all the doors
6. Spiral Of Smoke
An obscene chant came out of the mouth
Twisted in Alph’s face and the notes
Of his song taking dance shapes from a rise in the air
Wrapped in the spiral of smoke and slowly vanishing
From sight get lost in the sky
Strange things happened on the Spice Islands
Little barren moors of dunes pointing the stormy sea
Only the wind’s howl can break
The silence of the place
Many bodies gone up in smoke in vain
Are wrongs to Mimir he looks over the rival
With his magnetic power
It makes him undress let the clothes flying away
Taken by the clouds like lot of kite
7. The Spice Islands
I felt the earth was trembling
The rain was falling down on us
That menacing river
Began to spread mud everywhere
I sailed so long in the middle of the great boiling waters
At the end of the waters
they became a hidden part of me and I a part of them.
They call me the Son of the Water, born of a dream,
they ask me for the water to quench any thirst.
Just a drop, to recognize who I am.
One tree divided into equal parts barred my way
I got it on board and then
I sailed to the unknown.
To pass my time, I dream and dream
To survive I dream too
And when at last, I touched the land
I had become the best dreamer of the Universe
8. From Hollow Trunk
My house has no walls, no ceiling, no floors,
nothing at all as it looks home.
My house is a hollow trunk
A big blue trunk standing out in the grey
From hollow trunk one glance thrown by chance is enough
To make the rooms change
The heights, the distances, the plains transfigured
And shining through the air
Since I live I saw the things better
And my knowledge grows in concentric circles
Like the trunks of the trees
Whose rounds raise every year
Once, around the blue forest there was the wide park
Of a great metropolis but nowadays it’s an invisible landscape
Being able to condition the visible, ‘cause spread all over
There are the dead bones rolled by the wind
9. Gorgoroth's Fire
