High on the mountain sits his castle
Nothing escapes this eagle's glances
His henchmen hight on the horses
Have long since drowned the optimism
Who was ever aware of the Master
Is turned into stone in a trice, so one says
And in bright full moon's night
One hears souls sighing for long
He is the Lord of Darkness
Death is his escort. The Lord of
Loneliness, his breath let's the
Soul freeze
So it happened that brave men
Unite for the fight of tyranny
The crusaded against ruler's castle
Crusaded and never came home
And so it became the fare of the women
To fee country and men
They ran away in trust in God
Nobody ever saw them again
Refrain
Finally it was a tender girl
To climbe mountain of misery
Pity it was what she felt
Standing unter cold wall's crenelations
She touched door and gate
Like a sun beam
Warmth filled every place
- And the castle had fallen
To dust
