Translation of the song lyrics Woods to Eternity - Satyricon

Woods to Eternity (original)

Langt inn i mellom hoye fjell og dype daler
Gjennom norske skoger og morke huler
Bak her en drom for over lysen aar siden
Til hordaland kom pesta og bragte dod og pine
Thekseskogen ble plantet rotter for et rike som skulle komme
Hedningenes land vikingland
Svarte sjelers land vikingland
Mens telemark fosser og bekker enda renner i strie strommer som
Evigheten selv
En nyt tid kom hoor tordenbrakene dundret og jorden skalv
Som naar trollene kriger om hvem som skal herske in jotunheimen
En ny tid kom… Hoor vinteren blaaser og pisker
Det er ikke ly aa finne for den ensomme
Vandrer som maatte soke fred in nordland
Her oppe paa fjellet ved midnattsilden kan man enda se De komme som ville dyr ut av skogsmorket
Over trellberg…

Woods to Eternity (translation)

Far in between high mountains and deep valleys
Through Norwegian forests and dark caves
Behind here a dream about over the light years ago
To hordaland came the plague and brought death and torment
The thx forest was planted rats for a kingdom to come
The land of the heathen Viking land
Land of black souls viking land
While telemark waterfalls and streams still flow in torrents
Eternity itself
A new time came when the thunderclap thundered and the earth shook
Like when the trolls fight over who should rule in the jotunheimen
A new time has come… Hoor winter blows and whips
There is no shelter to be found for the lonely
Hiker who had to seek peace in the north
Up here on the mountain by the midnight herring you can still see you coming like wild animals out of the forest darkness
Over trellberg…
