Translation of the song lyrics Tuleen Ajettu Maa / A Land Driven Into The Fire - Moonsorrow

Tuleen Ajettu Maa / A Land Driven Into The Fire (original)

Verellä kirjoitettu kirja elämän
Käsissä sodan maailman luojan
Yli kuluvan talven voiko kuoleva jaksaa
Haavoittuneenakin susia kutsuen
Eikä miekka paranna metsien haavoja
Näin kirjoitettua ei verettä päätetä
Kuuntele, kuinka huudot kaikuvat
Vastarannalla aamuun ei odoteta
Maasta savea, taivaalta tuhkaa
Tulesta uhrit poltetun maan
Merestä aallot, taivaalta pisarat
Tulen henget rauhoittamaan
Ei kukaan meihin ole katsonut aikoihin
On ruoska repinyt pilvet halki
Rotat juoksevat kannella maailman
Kauna saaliiden silmist leiskuu
Kun idän varjo lännestä lankeaa
Ja saastunut mieli kunniaa hakee
Jäästä syntynyt on ajettu tuleen
Tulen tekijät mustaan hukkuneet
Ei kukaan sano että näkisi tulevan
Ei kukaan sano jos pelkää
Kallioihin pirstokaa kirveet
Päätänne riiputtakaa, heikot polvistukaa
Syvään lihaan nahkanne luokaa
Ryveten häpeässä lapsenne uhratkaa
Ihmisen tahto kuin rauta taivuttamaton
Riiputtaa päätään kurja luotu virheetön
Se pelkää, mutta kuolee taistellen
Puolesta jumalten joita itse tunne ei
Odottaa voittajan täytyy
Voidakseen sanansa tuuleen heittää
Vuoret liikkuvat harvoin
Ei niitä siirrä yksin vahvinkaan
Vain hetken teidän liekkinne roihuaa
Katso, se hiljaa hiipuu, maan tuhkin koristaa
Syvyys kylmä viimeisen hehkun tukahduttaa
Kutsutko kuoleman sen vielä kerran herättämään
Sitä vielä itket kun synkän vieraan taloosi laskit
Siipensä levittämään kauniin elämäsi ylle
Sen yhdellä henkäyksellä poistamaan
Aseisiin, sen te kuulette aina
Teidän verellänne tämä maa peitetään
Se on polku, jota pitkin teitä seurataan
Niin kauas kuin pimeys jaksaa kantaa
Paikkanne lunastakaa, ette koskaan ole vapaita
Arkuissanne lapsenne kannetaan
Sataa ihmisen viha jumalten niskaan
Vahvemman oikeus vahvemman tappaa
Puolusta kotiasi, tuholle uhraa rakkaasi
Polta maa takanasi ennen kuin poltat itsesi
Sataa ihmisen viha jumalten niskaan
Punaiset pilvet sumentavat taivaan
Näin kaikki päättyy, kuumuus maan tyhjiin imee
Näin kaikki päättyy, näen sen nyt
Punainen taivas rotat saartaa
Verellä kirjoitettu kirja elämän
Käsistä sodan maailman luojan
Kansi hiiltyneenä laskettu maahan
Sanat sanomattomiksi tehty
Näin kaikki päättyy, näen sen nyt
Tämä sivu on viimeinen
Näin kaikki päättyy, tyhjään ja unohdukseen
Eikä kukaan tänne palaa
A Land Driven Into The Fire
The book of life written in blood
Lies in the hands of the lord of the world of war
This lasting winter could the dying endure
Still calling the wolves when wounded
The sword doesn’t heal the forests' wounds
What is written is undone by blood
Hearken to the echoes of warcries
The opposing shore will not wait for the dawn
Clay from the earth, ash from the sky
Offerings of the burnt soil from flames
Waves from the sea, drops from the sky
To calm the spirits of fire
No one has looked at us from above
The scourge has ripped through the clouds
Race of rats on the deck of the world
Grudge flames in the eyes of the prey
When the west casts a shadow on east
Whilst a poisoned mind desires glory
Which was born of ice is now driven into fire
The firemakers all drowned in black
No man will say he sees the coming
No man will say he fears
Splinter your axes against the rocks
Hang your heads and kneel
Shed your skin to reveal your flesh
Wallow in shame to sacrifice your kin
The will of man like iron unbent
Who was created flawless may hang his head
He fears, but will die fighting
In honour of gods he has never known
The victor must wait for his moment
To cast his words into the wind
Rarely the mountais do move
Even the strongest won’t shift them alone
Your flame is ablaze but once
Behold as it wanes to veil the earth in ash
Last sparkles die out in the depths of cold
Death itself you may invite to find and fan them
And so you shall weep, for the somber guest in your stay
Spreads its wings over your beautiful life
Blowing it out with one single breath
To arms, you shall always hearken
With your blood they veil the ground
It’s a path you will be followed on
As long as the darkness may reach
Claim your positions, you shall never be free
In your coffins your children are carried
The wrath of man cast upon the gods
Right through strength kills the strong
Defend your home, offer your loved to the ruin
Burn the land left behind before burning yourself
The wrath of man cast upon the gods
Red clouds blur over the sky
This is how it ends, heat sweeps the earth
This is how it ends, I can see it now
Red sky to encircle the rats
The book of life written in blood
From the hands of the lord of the world of war
Lay down on earth with bindings charred
And with all words made unsaid
This is how it ends, I can see it now
This page will be the last
This is how it ends, to emptiness, to oblivion
And none will ever return

Tuleen Ajettu Maa / A Land Driven Into The Fire (translation)

A book of life written in blood
In the hands of the creator of the world of war
Over the current winter, the dying can cope
Even wounded, calling wolves
And the sword does not heal the wounds of the forests
Blood written in this way is not decided
Listen to the screams echo
On the opposite shore in the morning is not expected
Clay from the earth, ashes from the sky
Fire victims of scorched earth
Waves from the sea, drops from the sky
I will calm the spirits
No one has looked at us in ages
There is a whip torn through the clouds
Rats run on the deck of the world
The resentment catches the eye
When the shadow of the east falls from the west
And the polluted mind seeks glory
The one born of ice has been driven into the fire
The perpetrators of the fire drowned in black
No one says you see it coming
No one will say if you are afraid
Shred the axes into the rocks
Hang your head, your knees weak
Deep flesh your skin class
In your shame, your child will sacrifice
Human will like iron unbending
Hangs his head miserable created flawless
It fears, but dies fighting
On behalf of the gods themselves do not know
Waiting for the winner is a must
To be able to throw his words in the wind
The mountains rarely move
They are not moved by the strongest alone
Only for a moment will your flame erupt
Behold, it quietly fades away, the ashes of the earth adorn it
The depth of the cold last glow is suppressed
Do you call death to wake it up again
You're still crying when you lowered your gloomy guest's house
Spread your wings over your beautiful life
Remove it with one breath
Weapons, that's what you always hear
Your land will be covered with your blood
It is the path along which you will be followed
As far as darkness can stand
Redeem your seat, you are never free
Your children will be carried in your coffins
It rains the wrath of man on the neck of the gods
The stronger the right the stronger to kill
Defend your home, sacrifice your loved one for destruction
Burn the land behind you before you burn yourself
It rains the wrath of man on the neck of the gods
Red clouds obscure the sky
This is how it all ends, the heat of the earth is emptied
That's how it all ends, I see it now
The red sky is under siege by rats
A book of life written in blood
Out of the hands of the creator of the world of war
Carboned lid lowered to the ground
Words made unsaid
That's how it all ends, I see it now
This page is the last
This is how it all ends, empty and forgotten
And no one is coming back here
A Land Driven Into The Fire
The book of life written in blood
Lies in the hands of the lord of the world of war
This lasting winter could be the dying endure
Still calling the Wolves when wounded
The Sword does not heal the Forests' wounds
What is written is undone by blood

Clay from the earth, ash from the sky
Offerings of the burnt soil from flames
Waves from the sea, drops from the sky

Grudge flames in the eyes of the prey
When the west casts a shadow on the east
Whilst a poisoned all desires Glory
Which was born of ice is now driven into fire
The firemakers all drowned in black
No man will say he's inside the coming
No man will say he fears
Splinter your axes against the rocks
Hang your heads and kneel
Shed your skin to reveal your flesh
Wallow in shame to sacrifice your kin
The will of man like iron unbent
Who was created Flawless may Hang his head
