In the Village
Ahrcana Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
The wisper of thousands of warriors
It's a cry for freedom hide by the shadow
Of dark enemy
Ehi guys is this one the village of lost souls
Where spirits of warriors changed
In trees or stone
That should remember the great army of dark elf
Spirits hear me you'll can fight again
Give me my brother the arcane spell of light
Illumine valley, wake up spirits
By the long sleep
Are the closed ones we'll give life
But victory on the dark can
Take the peace
Spirits hear me you'll can fight again
Fallin' lights are burnin' bright
(illumine the village and the fight)
Stone mute by war tunes
(great army stands tall)
And the spirits of warrior will come
Great light ray run fast and fall down
Rippin' the sky
Through thousands of warrior's eyes
Return to bright more strongly than ever
In Ahrcana's song "In the Village," the lyrics tell a tale of an ancient tribe of warriors who have been suppressed by their dark oppressors. The song begins by setting the scene with a "mystic fog" and an uncountable number of warrior spirits whispering for freedom. The village by which they reside seems like one for lost souls where the spirits of warriors have been entrapped within the trees and stones surrounding the village. The lyrics then transition into a plea for these spirits to light the valley with the arcane spell of light so that these warriors can awaken from their long sleep and fight again. The victory on the dark is at stake, and these warriors must emerge victorious.
The final verse of the song serves as a battle-cry for the spirits, with the falling lights illuminating the battlefield and the stone structures of the village now having been marked by the war tunes. The song reaches its climax as the spirits of the warriors begin to rise up, their united strength overwhelming their oppressors, and the light victorious in its destruction of the darkness that had once controlled the village.
