The Seventh Seal
Lefay Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
I BROKE THE FIRST FOUR SPELLS
AND NOW THEY ARE RIDING EAGERLY
DEATH AWAITS THE ONES
WHO LIVE BY NATURES LAW
THE WORMWOOD STAR IS
POISONING THE WELLS BELOW
BEHOLD THE RUMBLING THUNDERS
BEHOLD THE EARTHQUAKES
THAT WILL BRING ETERNAL NIGHT
THERE WAS SILENCE
IN HEAVEN
AND FIRE CAST INTO THE EARTH
WHEN I BROKE THE SEVENTH SEAL
ABADDON IS RISING
SPREADING PAIN TO MAN
BY LOCUSTS, DEMONWINGED
WITH SHIELDS OF STEEL
THE FOUR FREE ANGELS
WHO HAD BEEN PREPARED
TO KILL ONE THIRD OF MANKIND -
NOW THEY ARE FREE
ONE THIRD OF ALL THE OCEANS
ONE THIRD OF ALL MANKIND
ONE THIRD OF ALL THE LIVING
ALL THE UNSIGNED SHALL DIE
THERE WAS SILENCE
IN HEAVEN
AND FIRE CAST INTO THE EARTH
WHEN I BROKE THE SEVENTH SEAL
WOE TO THOSE
WOE TO THOSE
WOE TO THOSE WHO DWELL ON THE EARTH
THERE WAS SILENCE
IN HEAVEN
AND FIRE CAST INTO THE EARTH
WHEN I BROKE THE SEVENTH SEAL
THERE IS SILENCE IN HEAVEN
AND FIRE CAST INTO EARTH
The opening lines of the song "The Seventh Seal" by Lefay describe the unleashing of demons, resulting from the breaking of the first four spells. The rider of death awaits those who live by nature's law, while the wormwood star is poisoning the wells below. The lyrics then proceed to describe a series of natural disasters, including rumbling thunders, earthquakes and eternal night, that are to befall the earth. The seventh seal has been broken, and with it comes the rise of Abaddon and the spreading of pain to humanity, precipitated by locusts and demon-winged creatures with shields of steel. This has been brought about by the four angels, who have been prepared to kill one-third of mankind.
The repeated reference to the silence in heaven and the casting of fire into the earth underscores the gravity and apocalyptic nature of the situation described in the song. The repeated use of the phrase "woe to those" highlights the belief that the world is in grave danger and those who dwell on the earth must be aware of the coming destruction. Finally, the song ends with the repeated reference to silence in heaven and the casting of fire into the earth, thereby emphasizing the cataclysmic nature of the events being described.
