The Spell

Join the hands together
For deeds that need to be,
Friends for now and ever
Sights beyond to see.

Reach and touch with loving,
Feel the power rise,
Give and take with caring,
All too high the prize.

Walk the paths of fire,
Feel the call of might,
Follow your desire,
What was wrong make right.

Lightning, it is flashing,
Hear the rising storm,
Waves of darkness crashing,
Shapes of power form.

Push at the resistance,
Destruction and decay,
Rid yourself of hindrance,
Shatter all that may.

Ride high on the peak of glory,
Power in the air,
Know it now and write the story,
Spell it everywhere.

Give it all with caring,
Give it all with love,
Find new strength in sharing
Earth and stars above

Heal where earth needs healing,
Give beyond compare,
Surrender all your feeling,
For your deed you dare.

Knowledge in disruption,
Never to give in.
Knowledge in restruction,
In the end to win.

Friends, the link be broken,
Take what is to give,
Freedom as a token,
Leave the ring and live.

But such deeds, outstanding,
Now demand their pay,
Everything is ending
Hell is on its way.

Flames, they linger higher,
Agony and pain,
Soul burns in the fire,
Mind becomes insane.


To have the power

Find your way through darkness,
bearer of the light.
walk the hidden pathways
in the dead of night!
                                    - to be yourself
Give your search a reason,
goals for which to fight,
give yourself an answer
to your endless flight.
                                    - to know the reason why!
Time put on your shoulders
painful, heavy weight,
Lonely steps have bought you
to a stormy height.
                                    - to know where to go!
Light a roaring fire,
shining strong and bright,
concentrate your power
on the blinding sight.
                                    - to know what to do!
Be yourself a leader,
force whith all your might
a way to your redemption,
to your final right!
                                    - to have the power!



           Lightbringer

They call you Master of the World
And yet they don't know who you are.

You feel the power of the stream,
And see the Ravens in the sky.
You hear the music of the wind,
Reach out, oh soul and fly.

            You carry the light
            Through the darkest night
            You carry it in your heart.

And as the wanderer walks the earth,
A wolf is singing to the moon.
Light is due to come,
Dawn it will be soon.


Stranger

In a land before time
Born beyond the shadows
Childhood now forgotten
In a place that is no more
*
Stranger.

Do not tell, do not say
Do not laugh, do not pray
There is danger in the air
Please be careful if you care
This is now and this is real
Like the touch of sharpened steel

Oh Stranger!

Come and go without a sound
Watch behind and turn around
Merge with shadows, hidden race
Suddenly come face to face

With Stranger!

Kicks you right between the eys
In a moment of surprise
Do you think the world is rough
Better deal now and be tough
Do nat ask, do not dare
Do not cry if you care

It's Stranger!

Wish to know all about it
Do you really care to hear it
Do you think that I will tell you
I could just as easy kill you
Threats and darkness, you are scared
After all, what's you compared

To Stranger?

Will he ever go away
Perhaps he is bound to stay
Dark companion in your mind
Answers you will never find
Bound in hatred, bound in love
As you count the stars above

The Stranger.

Are you ready for the fight
Who is wrong and who is right
You don't even know the game
And were never told the name

Of Stranger.
 *
In a land beyond time
Death awaits with silence
Life now meaningless
In a place that is to be



In der Fremde

Es schwebt mit dem Wind über felsige Berge
stolz mit mächtigem Schwingenschlag
die erhabne Gestalt eines prächtigen Wesens,
silbernes Haar und weisses Gewand.

Verschlungen sind die Wege des Schicksals,
sie führen sie fort aus dem bergigen Land,
fort von dem kraftvollen Spiel der Winde,
fort von der Freunde Beistand und Rat.

So sollst du gehn, so spricht das Orakel,
zweifelst du nicht an dem eigenen Sein.
Zweifelst du nicht an der eigenen Weisheit,
so wird der Weg von Gewinn für dich sein.

Sie findet sich wieder zusammen mit Fremden,
die sie nicht kennnen, die sie nicht verstehn.
Sie wird gefeiert, wird verspottet,
am Ende bleibt sie alleine stehn.

Da sind jene, die ohne Bedenken
im Namen des Friedens Waffen baun.
Andre, die diese Waffen segnen,
im Namen des Gottes, dem sie vertraun.

Solche, die morden und plündern und rauben,
Chaos verbreitend frech und froh,
andere wieder, die ordnen, verwalten,
die Welt gestalten, anderswo.

Diese, die nur dem Geld gehorchen,
hier nur Titel und Reichtum zählt.
Des eignen Selbst Wohlstand macht grösste Sorgen,
denn Geld nur und Macht bestimmen die Welt.

Einsam schwebt sie über dem Treiben,
sehnsuchtsvoll denkt sie an früher zurück.
Trauernd singt sie dem Winde ihr Leiden
vom Mangel an Liebe, Frieden und Glück.
 
Einsame Weihnacht

Eine alte Frau sitzt am Waldesrand
Sie flechtet auch Tannengrün ein Band
Es zu legen auf ihres Mannes Grab
Den es seit Jahren nicht mehr gab. 
                                                                                                                                                                                                  Ein Hund streicht durch das nasse Gras
                                                                                                                                                                                                  In dem die alte Frau auch sass
                                                                                                                                                                                                  Das Fell weiss, braun und grau
                                                                                                                                                                                                  Wau wau, wau wau.
                    Weihnachten ist heute wieder
                    Doch nun geht es ohne Lieder
                    Ohne Mann und ohne Freud
                    In der öden Winterszeit.
                                                                                                                                                                                  Wie wär ein warmer Herd so gut
                                                                                                                                                                                  Ein wenig Streichen gäb mir Mut
                                                                                                                                                                                  Mein Fell ist ganz struppig und rauh
                                                                                                                                                                                  Wau wau, Wau wau.
                                        Auf ihres Mannes bewachsenes Grab
                                        Legt die Frau ihre weihnachtlich Gab
                                        Da kommt vor die Füsse gelaufen ihr
                                        Ein mageres, dünnes Hundetier!
                                                                                                                                                       Mein Herrchen hat mich vielleicht vergessen 
                                                                                                                                                       Sie aber riecht nach Streicheln und Fressen
                                                                                                                                                       Das weiss ich ganz genau
                                                                                                                                                       Wau wau, wau wau!
                                                                    Wo kommst Du denn her, du armes Tier
                                                                    Als ob mein Mann dich gesandt hätte mir!
                                                                                                                                         Hier ist jemand dem ich vertrau
                                                                                                                                         Wau wau, wau wau.

Abends sitzen sie beide vor dem Kamin
Wo weihnachtlich die Kerzen glühn.
Wie nett ist doch diese Frau 
Wau wau, wau wau!
