Overall Meaning

The lyrics of Magma's song Gorutz waahrn are complicated and open to interpretation. The first few lines contain repetitive phrases that could be perceived as a chant or invocation, with "Wiïëehr" and "Wiïëehr Gëhmaïn dïehr" being repeated several times before the vocalist breaks out into a scream. The lyrics continue with the word "ZÏSS ÜNT!" being repeated 14 times, building up the tension until the song hits a climax with the word "STÖHTH!!!" (which means "stand up" in Kobaïan). The final lines of the song are a repetition of the first phrase followed by a series of elongated notes.


The meaning of the lyrics is not entirely clear, as Kobaïan is a constructed language which only Magma's founder and sole consistent member, Christian Vander, understands fully. However, it is possible to glean some insight into the themes and emotions expressed in the song. The repetition of "Wiïëehr" and "Wiïëehr Gëhmaïn dïehr" could suggest a sense of urgency or desperation, while the repeated phrase "ZÏSS ÜNT!" could be interpreted as a call to action or a rallying cry. The final word, "STÖHTH!!!", may be an exhortation to stand up against some form of oppression or injustice.
