The next five years Emerald Mind continued working on new songs and trying to record a quality demo. In those days it was not an easy task, because Vladivostok was too far away from any metal music industry. Finally, in november 2009, band released their first album “Tales Of Soveena” and moved to St. Petersburg to discover new horizons.
The northern capital met the musicians with the cold wind and lots of challenges. So even the very existence of the band was under question. In 2011 Alexey and Svetlana decided to move on and start writing new material for the second album. So at this moment this work almost done and we can’t wait to share with you our hopes, dreams, experience and feelings that we put in our music!
Revenge Of Princess Olga
Emerald Mind Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
Thud of horses over blood glade
Simple birds will help me
To take fire to their own home!
Broken armor on the brown grass!
Rain of lances everywhere!
Maimed corpses lie in dust
How can explain,
Oh, your soul through a rain,
Eagles will carry away.
Weeping for sun,
Oh, nothing to say
I will return to them pain
After great funeral fire
On perfidious murder
She invites guest to the table
Taste her wine with sleeping potion
Time of vengeance is coming
Torch is blazing, pit is dug deep
Dear guests, come into fire!
Alive shouting grave will be here!
The song "Revenge of Princess Olga" by Emerald Mind is a powerful expression of righteous anger and vengeance. The lyrics are filled with vivid imagery of a brutal battlefield, with iron voices sounding and horses thundering over a blood-stained glade. The singer of the song is seeking revenge for some kind of betrayal, and the lyrics make it clear that this is not a fight to be taken lightly - there are maimed corpses lying in the dust, and broken armor scattered across the brown grass. Despite the odds, however, the singer is confident that victory is assured, and even the simple birds will help bring the fire of vengeance to their enemy's doorstep.
The second verse of the song takes a more introspective turn, with the singer questioning how they can truly express the depth of their soul in the face of such brutal violence. The imagery shifts from a rain of lances to weeping for the sun, and there is a sense of resignation in the line "Oh, nothing to say." Despite this, however, the singer is still driven by the need for revenge, and the final verse lays out a chilling plan for vengeance. After a great funeral fire, Princess Olga invites her enemies to dine with her and taste her wine - which has been laced with a sleeping potion. The stage is set for the ultimate act of revenge, with a blazing torch and a deep pit awaiting the unsuspecting guests.
