|
I (still) admire the flow of echoing horns. |
|
Mimicking blows so boldly, |
|
I hear... |
|
I stand visibly, high, on this splendid bastion, |
|
To remember a |
|
High King, a tyrant of no fear |
|
I am the first son: a commander without a father, "Fortuitous doom," the last of his predictions. |
|
I'll take advantage by igniting the balusters... |
|
Preparing enraged flames with sweltering speed. [Chorus I - Cairn Warrior and Art Aenfer's War Exclamation (High King of Tara):] (THESE ARE THE) |
|
PILLARS OF |
|
MERCY! Today, |
|
I am callous... |
|
Tomorrow, |
|
I am king - |
|
Immortal, strong, exultant, and conquering! [Chorus II:] |
|
PILLARS OF |
|
MERCY! My song and my word are iniquitous - |
|
Gathering assemblies in days gone by! [Chorus III:] (FIRE BURNS WITH THE) |
|
PILLARS OF |
|
MERCY! My chariot races through saw-toothed hills, |
|
And hurls through every valley and mere! [Chorus IV:] |
|
PILLARS OF |
|
MERCY! Watchtowers collapse before the lift of the twilight, |
|
I am swift in battle- |
|
My voice is heard! |
|
PILLARS OF |
|
MERCY! Frost, fire, and wind are pelting all the columns... |
|
There is no dilution for them to fight again! |
|
Only three chariots are seen on the charred plains - |
|
Through all the throngs and clusters, lambs and stallions! "If you should speak to me now, Then I will chamber Tara's pinnacle. Why my father? Another damning scuffle? I (still) admire the sound of echoing horns!" [Chorus V - Cairn Warrior and Art Aenfer's War Exclamation (High King of Tara):] (THOSE WERE THE) |
|
PILLARS OF |
|
MERCY! Frenzied vultures gnawed the necks of dead men, |
|
As the sturdy, gilded columns had seethed! [Chorus VI:] |
|
PILLARS OF |
|
MERCY! Enemies' blood spurted like volley sprigs- |
|
The blustery fight was planned, then fought! [Chorus VII:] (FLAMES FLAYED ON THE) |
|
PILLARS OF |
|
MERCY! Their vapid minds were troubled and sides were pierced- |
|
And warlike deeds had been fulfilled! [Chorus VIII:] |
|
PILLARS OF |
|
MERCY! We saluted chieftains on the regal |
|
Tara - We hailed the tyrants that governed our waters! |
|
PILLARS OF |
|
MERCY! STR |
|
IKE! [Terminus:] |
|
There shall be no lack of dignity, |
|
For those who oppose them. [Repeat Terminus] "THERE WILL BE PILLARS OF MERCY!" |
