Bergtrollets Hevn
Gorgoroth Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
De skaut ihjel, tillits død, tillits blod og storm
Storm til gjerning, storm til brynjer
Storm tilbake hit når fienden, som gikk og stengte fjellet bak
Dypt i den mørke fjellhulen, jakt på Troll
De skaut ihjel, tillits død, tillits blod og storm
Storm til gjerning, storm til brynjer
Gløtt, langs fjell, til der hvor solen står høgt
Hat blir stilt av Trolldom og høydens skodde
Hjertet til de frie skal briste
Skrik skal bli minnet, skrevet på en sort svart himmel
Aldri mer skal bergtrollet sture, aldri mer skal solens tåke stikke
Blæh
Jøåååååårrraaa
Jææh
Inatt slumrer solens tåke
Aldri
Aldri må solens tåke slikke hans sjel.
The Norwegian lyrics of Gorgoroth's song Begravelsesnatt describe a hunt for a troll in a dark mountain cave. The hunters killed the troll and spilled its blood, a symbol of the trust that was broken, and a storm accompanied the act, both as a physical event and as a metaphor for the turmoil and frenzy that characterized the moment. The storm is also a call to arms, a promise to unleash the same ferocity upon the enemy who blocked the entrance of the mountain.
The second part of the lyrics mentions a glimmer of hope, a glimpse of where the sun stands high, but it is quickly replaced by anger and a desire for revenge. The hate is empowered by magic and the fog of the heights, and it aims to break the hearts of the free. The memory of the troll's death is forever etched on the dark sky as a scream, and the troll's dominance is forever broken.

This is fucking bullshit. I may not understand the full lyrics, but the "lyrics" sound nothing the words in the song. It started out with something like "Cast out the disgraced. Lord Satan forever lord" or something like that.
