Slechtvalk - Black Raven Dead lyrics
[Slechtvalk - Black Raven Dead lyrics]
A falcon was sent into the air by his master
To begin his hunt for food
With firm beats of his wings he ascended
Into the sky to begin his search
There his eyes spotted far below him
A black figure stirring in the depths
Circling high up in the sky
The falcon awaited the best moment to strike
With great speed the falcon
Dove upon his prey
His wings folded to reduce the
Drag of the winds
The prey didn’t notice the threat from above
Whеn all of a sudden his sight went black
Sharp talons piercing thе flesh
Death came swiftly
There was no way to escape
The slain bird was heavier then he expected
The falcon couldn’t maintain his altitude
He felt reluctant to let go of his prey
But the threat of sharp rocks was at hand
Then a southern wind went through the air
Drifting on the warm current
Carried by the wind
The falcon quickly climbed again
He shot through the sky over the forest
When he heard his master’s call
In return the falcon gave a shriek
As an answer to his name his master wondered
What the falcon was carrying
The large black shadow he firmly held
The black raven is dead
He has killed himself a black raven
An unusual prey for a falcon
But still the black raven is dead
To begin his hunt for food
With firm beats of his wings he ascended
Into the sky to begin his search
There his eyes spotted far below him
A black figure stirring in the depths
Circling high up in the sky
The falcon awaited the best moment to strike
With great speed the falcon
Dove upon his prey
His wings folded to reduce the
Drag of the winds
The prey didn’t notice the threat from above
Whеn all of a sudden his sight went black
Sharp talons piercing thе flesh
Death came swiftly
There was no way to escape
The slain bird was heavier then he expected
The falcon couldn’t maintain his altitude
He felt reluctant to let go of his prey
But the threat of sharp rocks was at hand
Then a southern wind went through the air
Drifting on the warm current
Carried by the wind
The falcon quickly climbed again
He shot through the sky over the forest
When he heard his master’s call
In return the falcon gave a shriek
As an answer to his name his master wondered
What the falcon was carrying
The large black shadow he firmly held
The black raven is dead
He has killed himself a black raven
An unusual prey for a falcon
But still the black raven is dead
