Lyrics

A murky presage roaming the land

To silence the skylarks chant

The somber kiss is at hand

To impart the crimson robe

Heed the darksome maid

Dancing across this equinox

To relegate persistence

As the bleak darkness grows

A cryptal impellent, devoted to the sublime round

Beholden for the boons of light

Retreating into quietness

We harken the somber lay

We sing the somber lay

Close your eyes and heed and vide

Then you shall see

The sphere revolves as it's promised

Flames flickering deftly

To banish the nipping air

The dark time is at hand

Lighted by bardic chant

Heed the darksome maid

To enwrap all in bleakness

A dark veil o'silence

As quiet insight buds

Darkness roaming the land

Long dead the skylarks chant

The dark vis usurped command

To impart the sallow robe

Sure a new light will come

The lifewheel is rotating onward

Given is the promise

Thus assertive we wear on

Life-given impellent, devoted to the sublime round

I so much prefer Slania to any other following album. This is where I fell in love with Eluveitie!

Du celtic metal bien énergique, avec pour accompagnement (entre autres) une cornemuse, ce qui est plutôt inhabituel dans le genre.

After a boring surf on youtube watching fail videos, I needed something to happen. Suddently, this song came te me, creating an intense feeling of .. warriorism. And at this moment, I left my computer, went to the bar, asked for a viking size mug of strong beer and I approach that cute, brown hair, dark elfe look like girl. That's how Eluveitie helped me that night to bring a girl at my place, which I consider in general to be a major quest. Love this song till that night..

You can just hear Dark Tranquillity in this. It´s incredibly similar. DT played this years before Eluveitie existed, they just added the folk influences

Worry not; it means you've just becoming to be sane person, don't confuse it with being obsessed.
