Mongol – Amongst the Dead Lyrics

The earth trembles at the return
As it splits, cracks, and begins to churn
Great hands break through the surface of the earth
So has begun the long-awaited rebirth

The prophecy fulfilled
Rising to stand upon the mountain of his youth
The khan throws back his head singing in two tones

The earth returns the sounds of his song
With the percussive beating of hooves on the ground
The howl of the wolf, and the falcon's cry
The sacred mountain's song brings tears to his eyes
Aeons have passed since you last set this world ablaze

Bloodlines were tainted with each generation past
The sacred wolf-blood languished
The erosion of an empire but alas!

Welcome an end to succession, the throne is for one khan to own
The khan of khans returns to rule for an eternity to last

And now the earth sings the song of his return
With the percussive beating of hooves on the ground
The howl of the wolf, and the falcon's cry
Praise to the might of the khan now deified
Aeons have passed but once more you will set this world ablaze

Ride, fight with steel held tight
Resurrected cavalry howling through the night
Pride, might, and glory in sight
The long-forgotten clans will finally reunite (reunite)
The time is near, they will submit to their fear

Ride with us amongst the dead
Or we'll grant you a severed head
Ride with us amongst the dead
The unworthy will die

Hordes of undead
Massacre indifferently those who challenge unity

Come and choose your destiny
Bend the knee to unity
An age of division ended with precision
Fear not the end, it has only just begun

Ride, fight with steel held tight
Resurrected cavalry howling through the night
Pride, might, and glory in sight
The long-forgotten clans will return tonight

We will burn this world to the ground
From the ash will rise a kingdom profound
Foundations laid millennia past
Will rise like an edifice, the eternal kingdom united at last

Ride, fight with steel held tight
Resurrected cavalry howling through the night
Pride, might, and glory in sight
The long-forgotten clans
They will return, they will return, they will return tonight
Return tonight
The time is near, they will submit to their fear

Ride with us amongst the dead
Or we'll grant you a severed head
Ride with us amongst the dead
The unworthy will
Die!

Hordes of undead
Massacre indifferently those who challenge unity
