In 1999, Lady Morte began work on a solo project called Trobar de Morte. The project, involving vocals and keyboards, was principally inspired by the European Middle Ages. Some years later, in 2002, Lady Morte joined together with two companions, Sathorys Elenorth and Lady Nott (members of Sathorys), in order to work on a project that was similar in theme but put Trobar de Morte on hold. The union of the two groups, Trobar de Morte and Sathorys, became Ordo Funebris. When Ordo Funebris disbanded one year later, in September 2003, Lady Morte resumed her work creating music under the name Trobar de Morte, picking up her initial project from where it she had left it the year before.
She wanted a band that did not rely solely upon one instrument - the keyboard - and thought that an acoustic guitar would bring much more beauty to the music. Thus, she invited “Lenna” to play along with her, charging him with creating guitar scores. But Lady Morte felt that something was still missing... something that would give more force and tenacity to the band, something that would forcefully beat through the music like a heart... finally she knew what was needed: percussion! So “Taedium” was invited to join the group, becoming the lord of the drums. A new band was created, a band where the world of dreams is ruler, where fairies exist, and where beautiful, deep forests prompt a return to an imagined medieval era. There, where the witches dance around the bonfire and share their desires with the night and the stars, where the sea whispers the secret name of the wind, and the moon lulls us to sleep with its sweet lullaby... the enchanting surroundings breathe life into Trobar de Morte.

The Wolf
Trobar de Morte Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
While I walk and run in my homeland
I look at the sky
And only I can feel freedom in my heart
Son of the forest
Born in the dark
Howling to the moom
Protected by the stars
And my warm blood make me feel eternal
The night and old sounds
They call to me with a melody
Son of the forest
Born in the dark
Howling to the moon
Protected by the stars
The lyrics of "The Wolf" by Trobar De Morte portray the connection between nature and a wolf, seen from the wolf's perspective. The opening lines of "My eyes shine tonight while I walk and run in my homeland" show the freedom and thrill that the wolf feels while running in the wild. The sense of the wolf's freedom is emphasized by the following line, "And only I can feel freedom in my heart."
The next few lines, "Son of the forest, born in the dark, howling to the moon, protected by the stars" further illustrate the wolf's relationship with nature. The wolf was born in the dark and is a natural part of the forest, howling to the moon and feeling protected by the stars.
The last lines of the verse, "My frozen breath and my warm blood make me feel eternal, the night and old sounds they call to me with a melody," show that even though the wolf has a physical existence, its presence in nature is timeless, as its breath and blood indicate longevity. The wolf also seems to feel a pull to the natural world around it, being sensitive to sounds around it.
Overall, the lyrics of "The Wolf" convey the power of nature and depict the relationship between a wild animal and its natural surroundings.

My eyes shine tonight
I am full of life and energy this evening
While I walk and run in my homeland
I am moving through the familiar land that I call home, with purpose and vigor
I look at the sky
I gaze upwards, taking in the vastness of the world around me
And only I can feel freedom in my heart
The sense of liberty that I am experiencing is personal and unique - it belongs to me alone
Son of the forest
I am a creature of nature, deeply connected to the woods and its inhabitants
Born in the dark
I emerged from the obscurity of night, like so many creatures that call these woods home
Howling to the moon
I communicate with fellow animals through this ancient form of expression, letting my voice carry throughout the night
Protected by the stars
The celestial bodies above provide a sense of protection, reminding me of the greater forces at work in the universe
My frozen breath
I feel the cold on my face, the tangible sign that I am alive and breathing
And my warm blood make me feel eternal
At the same time, I am aware of my own mortality - it is the paradox of life, to feel both eternal and fleeting
The night and old sounds
The natural sounds of the evening are familiar to me, indicating that all is as it should be in this world
They call to me with a melody
The sounds that I hear are more than just noise - they are a type of music, evocative and inspiring
Son of the forest
Again, I am reminded of the primal connection that I share with the trees and animals that inhabit this land
Born in the dark
I was born and raised in the shadows, but I embrace this as a sign of strength rather than weakness
Howling to the moon
With my voice raised high, I join the chorus of the wild, calling out to all who will listen
Protected by the stars
In a world that can often feel harsh and unforgiving, I find comfort in the thought that these celestial bodies watch over me

Love this and the two Wolves I saved and they protected me and my 3 year old son too. I loved when my Wolves ran with me and I was their pack leader. They were magnificent beautiful creatures and they chose where they want to be, they chose me. Love this song.
