Lady Nova Veyra - The Knight Beyond The Veil (The Yearning Part 2)

Lyrics by : Dedi "Ndoy" Rosandi Upon this thorny road I wander, Beneath the moon, beneath the thunder, Through ancient woods and fields of stone, I seek the knight I called my own. Through mist and rain, through fading light, I search the roads through endless night, Across the hills, beneath the sky, My hope shall live, though years may die. O, dearest love, mourn not my name, Nor let thy heart be bound by shame. My blood was shed upon the field, Where sword and shield our homeland sealed. The battle cries have passed away, The ravens feast where warriors lay, My final breath upon the blade, For thee and for our land was paid. You rode away beneath the banner, With iron heart and faith of honour, You left me standing in the rain, Believing you would come again. But every road I walk alone, Leads me to fields of silent stone. How shall I live without thy light? How shall I face the coming night? My love, thy tears I cannot bear, Though flesh and blood are no longer there. I gave my life so thou couldst live, The greatest gift that I could give. For hearth and home, for sacred ground, For every soul that dwelleth round, I took the sword, I faced the flame, And carried thee within my name. Then tell me, love, where shall I seek thee? What distant star shall lead me to thee? I call thy name through forest deep, But only ancient echoes speak. The castle bells now mourn the fallen, The fields lie cold where heroes battled, Yet in my heart thy voice remains, A fading song beneath the rain. When winter comes and roses perish, When all the songs of men grow weary, Remember this, my love, my queen, Our bond shall outlive what hath been. No grave can bind the soul forever, No sword can sever love's endeavour, Though I have crossed the mortal sea, A part of thee remains with me. If I cannot hold thee in my arms... Then hold my memory within thy heart. If I cannot follow where thou art... Then live, my love, and make thy heart strong. For love shall not perish beneath the stone, Nor fade where the fallen lie alone. Though death hath taken flesh and breath, Our love shall triumph over death. I shall walk where the wild winds call me, Where moonlight falls upon the valley, And when the evening stars appear, I shall believe that thou art near. And when thy final hour is spoken, When earthly chains at last are broken, Beyond the veil, beyond the sea, My waiting soul shall welcome thee. Until that day... I shall remember. I shall wait. Beyond the sword, beyond the gate. Beyond the grave, beyond the night, Two hearts shall meet beneath the light. #epic #cinematic #cinematicmusic #symphonicmetal #gothic #medieval
