Elissabetha - HEATHENS OF THE HEATHER FIELDS (A Symphonic Metal Song)

HEATHENS OF THE HEATHER FIELDS is an emotional, atmospheric symphonic metal track featuring a powerful female voice (Elissabetha). Taken from the upcoming album: ELISSABETHA - LUPUS AETERNUM Lyrics: Verse 1 The frost has claimed the heather, like ash upon the land, and in the wind a whispered vow escapes the orphaned sand. The fathers search in silence, their torches bleeding light, where pagan fears and broken bones still shimmer in the night. Verse 2 Deep among the gnarled black pines the hunters find a sign: a symbol carved in ancient bark, a mark of something vile. The soil reeks of moonlit death, the air is cold as steel — a hidden rite, a secret dread the forest can’t conceal. Pre-Chorus In shadows thick as burial shrouds the old gods stir again — and Bedburg’s trembling souls recall the heathens’ iron reign… Chorus Heathens of the heather fields, their whispers stain the night! Where blood and bone are sacrifice beneath the moon’s pale light. Heathens of the heather fields, their curses never die — they guard the wolf of ancient wrath, and watch the village cry! Verse 3 An elder kneels in trembling fear, his rosary turned red, for every prayer he tries to speak awakens nameless dread. The heather sways like mourners, the wind begins to moan — and somewhere past the lonely ridge a beast claims flesh and bone. Bridge “Paganus… nocturnus… lupus vocatus… Sanguis… terra… sacrificium…” “The heathen cry, the shadows bend, the forest knows the wicked end…” Chorus Heathens of the heather fields, their whispers stain the night! Where blood and bone are sacrifice beneath the moon’s pale light. Heathens of the heather fields, their curses never die — they guard the wolf of ancient wrath, and watch the village cry! Final Chorus Heathens of the heather fields, their shadows rise once more! They carve their runes in frozen earth to wake the wolf of yore! Heathens of the heather fields, their spirits guide the beast — and under Bedburg’s ashen sky the ancient nightmare is released! ----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- “Lupus Aeternum — The Werewolf of Bedburg (1589)” A Dark Symphonic Metal Opera “Lupus Aeternum” is inspired by the chilling legend of the Werewolf of Bedburg — one of Europe’s most haunting historical cases, shaped by famine, superstition, trial hysteria, and the terror of a beast that stalked the heather fields under the blood-red moon of 1589. This album reimagines the legend as a sweeping symphonic metal opera: frozen forests, torchlit hunts, medieval courts, haunting choral laments, and the tragic downfall of a man whose name survived the flames of execution and echoed through German folklore for centuries. Here, the wolf is not merely a monster — but a reflection of human fear and darkness, a hunted soul bound by torment, a condemned outsider, broken by torture and accusation, whose final breath fed the fire… but whose curse never truly died. 🔥 Mood & Atmosphere • Haunted forests • Frosted earth • Torch-lit hunting parties • Medieval tribunals • Wolves in the night • Blood-stained moons • Whispered testimonies • Fear, superstition & hysteria • Tragedy • Fire • Eternal curse A powerful ensemble of voices — growling and whispered, sorrowful and commanding — guides the listener through a world where belief shapes reality, where superstition rules the courts, and where the boundary between man and beast bleeds into shadow. “Lupus Aeternum” blends historical tragedy with sweeping cinematic orchestration, dark poetry, and the relentless force of symphonic metal.
