In Summis Montibus Lyrics

In summis montibus excubiae in ingentibus turribus eminebat.
Repente nigra fuligo delapsa est super gentes.
Cantores et tibicines tacuerunt...
Silentium non verum absorbuit Bur-Caal
Statim laniatum excubiarum clamoribus.
Trans montem horrendus visus...
Duces Baazgor et Orkian ducebant ingetem exercitum
Qui iam non faciebat videre nec caelum nec terram
Nemo potuti fugere
Dracones Orkian in vicum ruerunt
Et dum catapultae oppida diruebant
Militum Robur in arcem irrumpit... inde sacrificium.
[ON THE CREST OF THE MOUNTAINS]
Along the crest of the mountains the alerts sentinels
Stand out on the enormous towers.
Suddenly a black soot comes down onto people
Minstrels and players kept silent...
An unreal silence swallowed Bur-Caal
Soon broken by the sentinel's screams.
Beyond the mountain there was a blood-curdling sight...
The general Baazgor and Orkian leading a great army
Which prevented to see neither the sky nor the land.
None had time to escape
Orkian's dragon pull dawn to the village
And while the catapults were demolishing the fortifications
The army entered the citadel... then the holocaust.
