Lyrics translated to English :

From dead cities where the bones turn black
The flame of the soul remain in the darkness
Where skulls turn to dust
The coldness of the stone will warm us

From dead cities where the towers are high
They reach deep into the Earth, to its bowels
In cities where the walls are wide
Blood soaks in, to satisfy thirst and hunger

Where whispers are screams
What will open closed eyes
Where teeth are sown like seeds
To feed them, to the maggots

From dead cities where the bones turn black
The flame of the soul remain in the darkness
And the darkness will devour it, and the light will spit it out
And will be entwined forever in a dull embrace

Nothing that once was, lasts forever
Nothing that happens will matter
High above the stars
Our beings have ascended

Dead fields covered with dust
Body filled by cold wind
Among walls full of darkness
Damned souls are howling

Cemeteries and fields full of corpses
The remains rotting in the pits lie dormant
A dream of eternal suffering

Dead fields covered with dust
Body filled by cold wind
Among walls full of darkness
Damned souls are howling

Cemeteries and fields full of corpses
The remains rotting in the pits lie dormant
A dream of eternal suffering
