Journey To The Isle Of Mists lyricsThe Log of the Northern Mariner:
The great serpent-prow of my ship, Wave-Render, cleaves the nighted waters as we
voyage across this dark, icy sea, towards the unknown... Above, the bright winter's moon
emerges a veil of cloud to cast its lucent rays upon us, and a clinging, supine sea-mist
writhes upon the midnight waves, swirled by the cool, whispering wind which catches our
great sail, pushing us onwards, ever onwards... And beyond the tang of the darkling sea,
[ From: http://www.elyrics.net/read/b/bal-sagoth-lyrics/journey-to-the-isle-of-mists-lyrics.html ]
the scent of night is as strong and heady as a summer blossom. I know not what awaits us
at the elder Isle of Mists... that grim and mystery-haunted place which beckons me to its
shadowed embrace, swathed in dark legendry and entwined in the mantle of ancient
sorceries... and yet I must hearken to its ethereal call... for mayhap the gods decreed this
to be my final voyage...
