Sing A Last Song of Valdese
Eternal Champion Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
It cuts it's way to Raven's Eyrie's door
Under the strange moon the night winds mock the Sun
The hound is baying for his master Demonlord
Ever the rider, ever the foe
The name of Kane forever known
By spell or by steel the brazen fall
The Seven Nameless hear thy cry
The Grey Lord and not Thoem will have your soul
Valdese by revenge your soul can be as one
No longer must you stalk among the nighted boles
Seven times seven, the Grey Lord will return
And carry back with him the soul which he has won
Wherever Kane has walked, a trail of crimson would follow now
Cursed by Theom, he will tread through the ages until
The treasures of kings turn to dust
And the flesh of all men falls from their time-eaten bones
Lord Tloluvin, Sathonys, wait an age for the one that will not die
In a tower of stone there burns a fire
The pain of steel for any who'd cross
The fatal eyes, weaken the brave
Horror met by the rushing of his blade
Lord Tloluvin, Sathonys
Wait an age for the one that would not die
The hunting hound, the Demonlord
Mark him by the strange hilt of his sword
Ever the rider, ever the foe, the name of Kane forever known
By spell, or by steel, the brazen fall
Valdese by revenge your soul can be at one
No longer must you stalk among the nighted boles
Seven times seven, the Grey Lord will return
The lyrics of Eternal Champion's song "Sing A Last Song Of Valdese" paint a picture of a dark and desolate world, inhabited by powerful forces and characters. The song begins by describing the Cotras, a river that flows beneath the autumn ridges and leads to Raven's Eyrie. The strange moon and mocking night winds set the eerie tone for the lyrics. Soon, the hound begins baying for his master Demonlord, and it becomes clear that a battle is about to take place.
The song speaks of a cursed figure named Kane, who is forever known as a rider and foe. The lyrics mention that the Grey Lord, a powerful being, hears Kane's cry and seeks to take his soul. However, there is hope for Kane's redemption, as Valdese and revenge may unite his soul and free him from his dark fate.
The song ends with a description of a tower of stone with a burning fire, guarded by the fatal eyes and rushing blade of a fierce warrior. As Lord Tloluvin and Sathonys wait for the one who will not die, the lyrics remind listeners that Kane's name will be forever known, whether by spell or steel.
