Oakenshield lyrics

Artist  : Elvenking 
Song : Oakenshield



 Send "Oakenshield" Ringtone to your Cell 

 
Oh pick up flutes and fiddles, a new tune is
beginning

A melody forsaken, on the chords of our elders'
song

Each note is telling a story, a fragment of
existence

Oh people ye who listen, sit down and hear the
old man's story



He was standing right in front of me, few steps
from where I've been

That day the manor's tower is hiding a sun in
agony

Filthy and soiled from head to feet, his sword
was rusty and ruined

But in his eyes I caught a fleeting glimpse of
his pride



[Bridge:] He said...

"Seven moons painted the skies before I reached
for the chosen one

A travel through the starlit horizons, through
the magic's way

On the path that leads us to knowledge, a light
fall of rites 



and believes from past forgotten times

Outshining the malice on our thoughts !



[Chorus:] A story that came from so many
miles and years ago

The legend of the magic shield

The elf, the dwarf, the man who carries true
faith deep within

Was known by everyone as Oakenshield



I didn't understand the words he said, the
silence fell on the scene

A watercolour painted with a thousand shades of
feels

A wooden shield tied on his back, the magic
wisdom seed

From that day on



[Bridge:] He told...

"From the time when the ancients' glory rules us
all, the shield has been

passed hand in hand to the few, whose hearts are
pure and bold

made with the hardwood of Usdu'm, never 



decline his influence on character

outstanding is the power of our will !



[Chorus:] A story...



[Intermezzo:] Shield, from the sources of our
depths 



in the universal edge

Declining

Shield, from the wounds in your malice grains



"Face up and take a contact with your inner
fears

You will find a well of gloominess and humble
damp

Make yourself a trace on walk, the power of
become

The enchantment is the magic of being"



[Solos: Aydan, Jarpen]



Slowly fades the light, the story slips away

The old man's tired now: doze off!

"Sleep well, keeper of the shield!"

Mankind could never understand,

the shield remains forever only as a:



[Chorus:] A story that came from so many
miles and years ago

The legend of the magic shield

The elf, the dwarf, the man who carries true
faith deep within

Was known by everyone as Oakenshield
