| Within the shadow of the arctic mounts of ice,
|
| Night had veiled the pole and darkness filled the sky.
|
| The air was so cold — cutting our skin,
|
| Freezing voices called us and the
|
| Winter winds did sing:
|
| «Tekeli-li, Tekeli-li"through the night…
|
| What ghoulish creatures brought 'em forth?
|
| What sphere had opened wide?
|
| «Tekeli-li, Tekeli-li"sounding through the air…
|
| Where it did lead us to, no mortal
|
| Man should dare.
|
| Right before our eyes of monolithic size,
|
| One labyrinth of cities — draped in moonlight — did arise
|
| «Tekeli-li, Tekeli-li"through the night…
|
| Leading to the icy ruins
|
| A long forbidden site…
|
| «Tekeli-li, Tekeli-li"through the night…
|
| Build by horror creatures
|
| From beyond our spheres of light… |
