|
|
The heavens are lit by the stars
|
where years of secrets of universal forces lay hid.
|
They shine so bright, but yet
|
they have seen more evil than time itself.
|
Reflected in the deepless lakes
|
(they are drowning in black elements).
|
|
They are the planetary keys to unlimited wisdom
|
and power for the Emperor to obtain.
|
(They) being the gods of the wolves
|
whom upon they bark at night,
|
|
requesting their next victim in thirst of blood.
|
I enjoy those moments I may haunt with these beats of the night.
|
|
What kinds of beings are existing at the deeps of my lakes?
|
They surely must be of an evil race,
|
for no friendly thing can live
|
in such depressive waters.
|
|
(Here is also a planet similar to the Moon, but its phases is only one
|
and it is in its most powerful for all and ever...
|
There passes no light without the barking of the wolves.)
|
|
All these landscapes are timeless,
|
and this is all just a part of cosmos,
|
(but) all is mine and past and future is yet to discover...
|
Much have been discovered, but tomorrow
|
I will realise I existed before myself.
|
|
I will be reborn
|
before I die.
|
|
I will realise planets ages old,
|
created by a ruler with a crown of dragon claws,
|
arrived with a stargate...
|
a king among the wolves in the night...
|
An observer of the stars.
