Skald av Satans sol
Darkthrone Lyrics


Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴  Line by Line Meaning ↴

Taken tetner
Mírket faller
Ondskap Slumrer
Skogen kaller

Her ute i Dyrets domene
gjennom en dyster, Gusten Skog
engler líper, engler flyr
vekk fra min egen kikegaard

Jeg star under en kald vind.
Taken letter 'fra englers flukt
Jeg drikker fra Manens Kalde,
Bleke lys og hylder Satans sol.
En Grusom Ondskap siver inn og fyller kropp og sjel
En himmel av Daudinger
Tortur og Hat

Taken tetner
Mírket faller
Ondskap Slumrer
Skogen kaller

La meg for evig tjene de toogsytti evig falne
I den Kolde Mírke brínn av de Slue sorte
Verdig utropes jeg som den Uhellige treenighets Skald
NAR HELVETE ENGANG KALLER ER DET INGEN VEI TILBAKE

Taken tetner
Mírket faller




Ondskap Slumrer
Skogen kaller

Overall Meaning

The lyrics of Skald av Satans sol by Darkthrone depict a scene of darkness, evil, and satanism. The first few lines describe the setting of the song as "out there in the domain of the Beast, through a dark, damp forest," with angels running and flying away from the singer's sight. Then the singer stands amidst a cold wind and consumes the cold, pale light of the moon. The lyrics portray the singer as someone who is completely engulfed by a cruel evil that pierces their body and soul, with a sky filled with death and torture.


In the latter half of the song, the singer insinuates their unwavering allegiance to Satan and the 72 fallen. The lyric depicts them as a Skald or a poet, who declares their worthiness to be the Skald of the Unholy Trinity. In the final line, the singer claims that once someone enters the gates of hell, there's no turning back.


The context of the song speaks towards the Satanic beliefs and references Norwegian Black Metal in the '90s. The lyrics of the song have been the subject of controversy because they glorify Satanism and the devil.

The fog thickens
Darkness falls
Evil sleeps
The forest calls

Out here in the Domain of the Beast
through a gloomy, gloomy forest
angels run, angels fly
away from my own cemetery

I stand under a cold wind.
The fog facilitates the flight of angels
I drink from the Cold of the Moon,
Pale light and shelters the sun of Satan.
A Cruel Evil seeps in and fills body and soul
A sky of Daudinger
Torture and Hatred

The fog thickens
Darkness falls
Evil sleeps
The forest calls

Let me serve forever the seventy-two fallen
In the Cold Dark well of the sly blacks,
I am worthy to be proclaimed as the Poet of the Holy Trinity,
WHEN HELL NO ONE CALLS THERE IS NO WAY BACK

The fog thickens

Darkness falls

Evil sleeps

The forest call

I like the fact that Fenriz composed and recorded the instruments and Nocturno comes like a cool guy and does the vocals only

@MissDafne92

And Fenriz also posed for the cover 😂
