Burning Leaves Lyrics

Ensiferum Burning Leaves

Passing aeons
Everlasting fight against the Evil
Their army grows on and on
With the darkening horizon

I'm not afraid, let them come
I will never retreat
I will stand and hold my ground
Protect the Ancient Tree

The defence is doomed to fall
With the world I used to know

Burning leaves
Turn to ash before my eyes
Crush my dreams
Long gone

Burning leaves
Dead branches reach to the sky
The flame within me
Is gone

On the light of the last dying star
Serpents crawl closer
All five branches, cursed from the start
And roots are torn to pieces

Right before my dying breath
I lay my eyes to the sky
As an eagle spreads its wings for the last time
Leaving me, the oak, the grove, to die

Liekö enää päällä maan ainuttakaan joka muistaa
Lehdon tuon kauniin kaukaisen,
jonne vie tie jokainen

Kun kuolee vartija viimeinen, keskellä liekkien
ikuinen puu ja maailma ihmisten
Niin loppuu aikamme

I wonder if any longer someone walks
the Earth who recalls
That fair Grove afar, where all paths meet

As the last of the guardians falls, ablaze the
Eternal Tree and Domain of Man
Thus ends Our Time
