Nine circles travelled The boundary of the world Of waters blackened Converge, rivers of hell Amongst the yew trees A silent deathly path Of vapours poisoned Exhale, breath of life Oh waters holy Of whom the gods swear oaths A binding promise No words can be undone A pact made to be broken The waters must be drunk Silent the god tongues Nine long summers must pass Another nine years Forced into exile From marble halls of grandeur The realm of Saturn's Son For even he knows An innocent request Cannot be broken Can only end in death And through night's blackness The waters cold and dark Calmly down the cliff side Are swayed by jagged rock A realm unworldly Majestic silver swirls Immortal waters Tide against the marsh The sun and eagle Have known the water's ways One gave his chariot And one - His self revealed To swear upon them The silver slygian waves Is cursed to regret The fearful stream of hate Nine circles travelled The boundary of the world Of waters blackened Converge, rivers of hell
